DG Construction Essex Ltd

Darren and Gary did an awesome job in transforming our Kitchen. Always a great job from them. Will always recommend.

We had two walls knocked through one being a supporting wall, so lots of steelwork involved which was carried out to the instructions of the structural engineer. They supplied their own workmen who we found very trustworthy and competent. They fitted a lovely kitchen and we’re accommodating of the many changes that we made along the way. Overall we were very pleased with the end result and would definitely recommend them. What I would advise though is to know exactly what you want as in making changes delays time and costs can escalate.

Darren and Garry are very professional in their dealings. They are prompt, truthful and very experienced. We really enjoyed their quality service during our Garage conversion project. I will always recommend them just as I have recommended them to my neighbour.

In almost 40 years of having home improvements carried out, every single one - without exception - has ended badly for me. This, in spite of using tradesmen who were highly recommended by friends and family. This time, I used D&G Construction Essex Ltd., which I found on Which? Trusted Traders, and am delighted with the outcome. Needing a 3rd set of soffits and fascias, 4th lot of guttering plus asbestos removal and disposal, I was beginning to despair. On first meeting Darren, I was impressed by his quiet and professional approach to the job I needed to be carried out. He supplied a detailed written quote and then a contract when the work and price was agreed. Both he and his team were punctual, respectful of my property as well as to me, and despite a few problems encountered along the way, provided only solutions to those issues that arose. They were tidy, completed the job both within budget and time-frame quoted, and I wish I’d used them on previous home improvements. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them both in person and on Which? They made the entire project completely painless and hassle-free. I’m over the moon. Thank you!

After our previous positive experience we hired DG Construction again to refurbish our bathroom. Once again, we are very happy with the workmanship. We especially liked that Darren spent much time with us laying out several different tiling patterns before laying them so we could visualise the look. Also, we wanted our shower tray laid uniquely and Gary and his son worked tirelessly throughout the heat to fit it as per our requirements (which was not easy!). Whatever design ideas we had, they worked hard to fulfil our expectations and deliver the end results we desired. They were meticulous in their approach. The refurb has made such a difference to the appearance of our bathroom and we are very happy with the end result. Fab as always. Thank You Darren and Gary (and team!)

We moved into our new house during covid and had many jobs to get the house as we needed it. The work included walls knocked through, structural beams, windows replaced with double doors, loft access/boarding and wall installation. DG Construction was our last tradesman visit. We especially liked that Darren stayed for at least an hour inspecting the sites thoroughly working everything out in detail. We felt that Darren was a perfectionist in his work. Also, Darren had a lovely manner and we felt he would be easy to communicate with well throughout the job. We were thrilled when the quote arrived at a reasonable cost. Throughout the work Darren and Gary were brilliant. Both are polite and professional and at the end of each day they left our home tidy. At every stage they asked for our preferences as to how we wanted certain finishes completed. The quality of the workmanship was exceptional and nothing was too much trouble. Both took the time to explain any building complications and worked with us to find satisfactory solutions, often going over and above to suit our preferences, like me being fussy about how I wanted my beam fitted! We often had to leave them alone working in our home and they proved themselves to be honest and trustworthy. We are really happy with the finished outcomes, so much so, that we booked them again for our bathroom refurbishment. I doubt we would go anywhere else now if we needed any other projects carried out.

We had a leak coming from around the chimney breast and contacted several traders.DG construction was one of the few to have the decency to reply. Darren visited us very quickly and explained what appeared to be wrong(after getting up on the roof). We were given an estimate and contract form in writing. We agreed on a price and arranged that Darren would do the job as soon as the weather permitted. On the arranged day, Darren and Gary got straight to work. They were very polite, friendly and managed to social distance. Their work was very professional and kept us informed what they were doing. When the job was completed they cleaned and tidied up. I would not hesitate to use this company again. In fact, we have asked Darren to price another job for later in the year. Highly recommended.

On purchasing a flat I needed the bathroom ripped out to repair a leak that had caused damp in the walls as well as some other items throughout the flat. Darren provided a clear quote and offered alternatives and suggestions where appropriate. On starting work we encountered a few hiccups that caused additional work to be carried out and minor delays. Each time Darren did his best to accommodate and adjust without excessive extra cost and with minimal overall delays. He was also happy to do some additional odd bits which came to mind during the time which definitely helped me out and was appreciated. Overall a highly recommended service all round. You’ll find cheaper somewhere if that’s the important bit for you, but the quality and service is spot on and exactly what I paid for.

Noticed that some tiles had slipped above the front door. Called Darren he came straight over, made it safe immediately. Came back within a week to fix permanently. Work looks good, very tidy and very fair price. He and Gary are our 'go to' when we need anything done. Always a pleasure to deal with them.

Darren’s work was carried out to the straight forward detailed contract that he produced, it permitted for agreed costed flexibility. He and his team carried out roofing repairs and replacement to a very high standard on my property giving great attention to detail and meeting his original estimate. They were totally committed to only my job, friendly, very hard-working, organised, clean and tidy. Highly recommendable. Many thanks, Darren and co. and Which? Trusted Traders.

Having used DG Construction previously I said I would use again. Yet again Darren and Gary delivered an amazing job with installing French doors for me which were not the easiest for them due to previous owners putting patio doors in wonky. Patience and work man ship was excellent yet again and good quality doors. Highly recommended. Thanks again.

Would highly recommend Darren at DG Construction. Had a flat roof in need of repair and the work was carried out efficiently. From quotation through to completion of the job Darren kept me informed of any underlying issues with the roof. Everything was explained in detail. Tidiness was exceptional. Thank you Darren and I will be using this company for all future works required. Highly recommend.

Called Darren during the Feb. '20 storms re our flat roofs. He called round and was very professional, but also very approachable. We arranged dates for the work, and he kept me informed re times. He was punctual, the work looks excellent and he left everything clean and tidy. We got a good job done for a reasonable price, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and his team.

During August we had our old polycarbonate conservatory roof replaced with a roof light and flat felt roof. The first 2 roofers employed to put the torch on felt roof just didn't turn up on the arranged day. In desperation we hired another roofer whose work was very shoddy and we had a serious leak after the 1st rain fall. The original roofer didn't want to know, and a couple of others didn't come back to us. Then we found DG Construction and we felt safe that someone was going to help us sort it all out. From the 1st contact on a Sunday via email, Darren was attentive and honest, spent a lot of time trying to find out where the issue may be. He arrived on the correct day, he was fastidious, worked into the dark to get the job done. It took him longer than expected at no extra charge and he has also made the roof look better. 2 months on we still haven't had any sign of a leak, well happy. We can't thank him enough for his time and work. We have used quite a view tradesmen over the years but we won't be using any other builder than Darren for future work and cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks again Darren. Rob and Tracy

We decided to create extra space in our 2 bedroom mid-terraced house by converting the loft. Of all the builders who replied, DG Construction were the only builders who spent extra time, at their expense, researching the project and working out a budget that agreed with our finances. Darren and Gary are extremely professional, courteous and friendly. The build ended up being 7 weeks over time. This was due to a number of issues identified within the property and other issues which we brought to their attention. These factors contributed to the extended time frame. As the build progressed extra requirements were added. Darren and Gary included these without so much as a murmur of complaint, which again underlines their professional attitude. The quality of finish to the work is exceptional. As promised each and every day they cleared up leaving the property habitable. I would have no hesitation in recommending them if you're thinking of having work done.

A very big thanks for an excellent job well done, total recladding of our house done and completed when promised even additional unforeseen problems dealt with and caused no delay, this was made hassle free with good communication even though we live abroad. 100% would use D G again and would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family Great job at a very competitive price

We had problems with the guttering to the rear of our home, plus a leaky conservatory roof. Darren and his team provided an excellent service and were not prepared to leave the job until everything was completed and fully tested. We are now able to enjoy our conservatory again and use it as our dining room without having to cover everything with plastic sheets, and beware of rain!

Not normally one to leave reviews, but credit where it is due... Darren and the team have been outstanding from start to finish. Darren made us feel at ease right from quotation stage, very professional and had the right answers to all of our many questions. He has a great team of very skilled trades behind him, all of which were polite, friendly and would leave our home clean and tidy at the end of each day. We have had a 2 storey extension built by Darren and couldn't recommend him enough. Should you get the opportunity to have Darren and the boys do some work for you... take it!

Darren and Garry did a splendid job replacing my flat roof. They worked tirelessly despite the July heatwave and dealt very professionally with changed requirements as the work progressed. I was kept fully informed of the cost implications at every stage. They were a pleasure to have around and I've already asked Darren to quote for another job.

I moved to the area and heard a lot about Darren and D G Construction from neighbours and people in my street and thought I would give them a call for a quote on the work I wanted done. The professionalism started right away Darren was very helpful and had a great sense about him. The quote I received was very professional and he took the time to explain all the possible explanations to me in detail. I took little time in thinking that Darren was the man for the job, he started shortly after and the work was completed to a perfect standard he completely transformed my house. He took the time to update me through steps of the work and explain what he was doing. it was a pleasure having D G construction to do the work. I have already contacted them again to get some more quotes on further work and whilst D G construction are in operation I will be using them for all work around my home. Just want to say thank you very much for all the work D G Construction. Not only was it brilliant they were very tidy and at the end of the job you wouldn't even know there was any building mess caused. the best experience I have had from having work done at my house. BIG THUMBS UP FROM ME.

Excellent Job, very professional, considerate in a working home. Will use them again.

Great Guys .... worked hard with attention to detail.... excellent finish to a high standard Really pleased with the build.. looks amazing!!

My house was in need of a big makeover and a friend suggested DG Construction and I'm very pleased that I took his advice, They renewed the roof, facias and soffits and to complete the job rendered the front and side of the house. It now looks like a new house. The team worked very hard and were good to have around. They did an excellent job and I strongly recommend them.
