Ratedpeople.com, the UK’s largest matching website for home improvers and recommended tradesmen, has revealed an increase in the number of home owners requesting quotes for more traditional crafts such as stonemasonry and carpentry.
The figures, revealed by data collated by Ratedpeople.com’s monthly barometer of the UK home improvement market, showed a 122 per cent year on year increase in home owners requesting traditional trades, with requests for stonemasons in particular increasing by 179 per cent.
Ratedpeople.com has indicated that the increase in popularity of TV craft and property shows such as Mastercrafts, featuring Monty Don, may have an impact on the popularity of craft trades, as people learn more about the benefits of such crafts and invest in traditional features for their home.
By using the website Ratedpeople.com, home owners can view a craftsman’s skill, experience and work history plus any recommendations and ratings they’ve received from others, so that they can make a well informed decision and hire the right tradesman for the job. Ratedpeople.com also provides users with helpful advice and tips for traditional properties, covering a wide variety of subjects.
Andrew Skipwith, CEO and Founder of Ratedpeople.com said: “The increase in requests for stonemasons recommended by others is likely to be down to the growing trend in using more traditional features on homes and the increase in number of people building their own homes. It is more important that the aesthetics of a traditional project are correct so most quite rightly opt for a professional to do the job as quite a lot of skill and craftsmanship is necessary to get the right result.”
