Get him (or preferably the owner of the flat) to sign a note to that effect - these things have a habit of being conveniently forgotton when they are no longer on site and have been paid. Make sure you see some identity giving an address where he can be contacted.

If he had said a cowboy builder, would that have been ok. If the cowboy had been Polish is that not ok to say so.

I don't see why - as a statement of fact - as long as he wasn't implying that there is an automatic connection between Polishness and being a cowboy.
So, you admit to doing DIY. When are we going to get a _meaningful_ contribution from you. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you've never sent a relevent message to this newsgroup in the last few months, or more. Have you?

The flat is my own, all paid for. The architect has given me his contact details, and assured me that he would get in touch with the estate manager of the house. So, that should all be alright.
