I agree, another good one.
But I would take it a little further by not looking only looking at previous customers but ongoing customers. With the economy as it is customers with past builds might have been with a shop at better times. It is always best to ask for "on going" customer references. Don't hesitate to ask the reference what you don't like about the shop your inquiring. Most likely its just little quirks that that customer doesn't care for but could have no meaning to your personality.
Besides considering your asking for reference on this forum and most likely your findings will bring you to some shop that chats here. If there's bad most likely its been posted.
