Paying the deposit safely

What is normal for this trade, what the balance sheet says, and how to pay so you are protected either way.

How much are you paying in total?

£Optional — the figures below then use your quote instead of an example.

Normal for bespoke staircases and joinery

30–50%

On a £15,000 job that is £4,500–£7,500 up front — the deposit covers materials and production labour, which are spent before anything is delivered.

Micro balance sheet

The latest accounts show net assets of £342. That is normal for a small trade business — profits are usually drawn out — but it means a deposit paid by bank transfer would be effectively unsecured if the company failed. Your protection has to come from how you pay, not from the balance sheet.

A 30–50% deposit is normal for bespoke staircases and joinery. Pay it with the usual protections.

Ask for a card payment link
Any firm can send a card payment link in minutes (Stripe, SumUp, Square, PayPal). Paying by card through it gives you chargeback rights on a debit card and Section 75 on a credit card; a bank transfer or 'pay by bank' gives you neither in a dispute. A firm that refuses a card and insists on a transfer has told you something.
Put at least £100 on a credit card
If any part of a purchase between £100 and £30,000 is paid by credit card, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act makes the card issuer jointly liable for the whole amount — including the part you pay by bank transfer. Ask the firm to take £100 or more on a credit card before you transfer the rest.
Get the legal entity on paper
Make sure the quote, contract and invoice name CONTINOX LTD (company no. 09967278) — not just the brand.
Keep the balance for completion
Whatever the deposit, the final payment should follow completion and snagging, not precede it.

Who is behind the website

What this means for your money

This is a company with a multi-year record, timely filings and public reviews. Normal precautions apply: a written contract in the company's legal name, staged payments and a copy of the public liability insurance. A 30–50% deposit is normal for bespoke staircases and joinery. Pay it with the usual protections. The latest accounts show net assets of £342. That is normal for a small trade business — profits are usually drawn out — but it means a deposit paid by bank transfer would be effectively unsecured if the company failed. Your protection has to come from how you pay, not from the balance sheet.
