DP Services

Darrell and Dan started my 3 extensions at the beginning of January 2024 and today is their last day. I have to say that right from day 1 they have kept me informed on everything that was going on and with their stage payments I knew exactly how much I would have to pay and when, unless I came up with an upgrade which was quoted for at the time. No hidden surprises, really good quality work and lovely guys.

We were looking for a reliable trustworthy company to refit our kitchen / dining room, we found exactly that when recommended to DP Services. From the first time I met Darrell I found him to be straightforward and knowledgeable about all aspects of building and home renovation work, along with Dan they have a vast range of skills across all trades to complete our project which they did to a very high standard and to our total satisfaction. They used a Gas Safe plumber and qualified electrician to work on those aspects of the job where required. Work included, ripping out existing kitchen / tiles including replacing the subfloor ready for new flooring. Fitting new kitchen, renewing all existing plumbing including a new mains stopcock and outside tap, repairing leaking internal Soil Stack, re-plastering, rewiring electrical sockets, laid new vinyl flooring, decorating and installing and oiling 3 new Oak internal doors to a very high standard. I really can't praise Darrell and Dan highly enough, Darrell planned the job so we were able to take delivery of the kitchen into the space they had made ready, they even came and supervised the delivery from Howdens, they made several modifications where the kitchen didn't fit to specification and returned and collected items from Howdens as required. Darrell also personally oversaw the planning and installation of the quartz worktops by Howdens. Nothing was too much trouble and I thank them both personally for a great job, very pleased.

Darrell & Dan completed a full kitchen refurb for us which included a lot of structural work. Removing a chimney, taking out walls & putting in steel. They made great adaptions to our original plans that didn’t quite work due to unforeseen issues with a wall, and made me a bespoke chimney area over my cooker. They both worked really hard. Their standard of work is superb & they really made the whole job seamless and stress free for us. We maintained access to a sink and washing machine throughout. There was no snagging list after as the quality of their work was maintained throughout the whole job. They tidied up and hoovered at the end of every day. Nothing was too much trouble and they kindly put up my kitchen blind, shelf & a picture. We can highly recommend them and will be asking them to come back to do our bathroom. Both guys are very friendly and we enjoyed having them about. They stayed true to their quote for the works completed. Work started 8 Aug. Completed 12 September

Darrell and his team were amazing from start to finish. They worked on our Victorian terraced house and they transformed it into our dream home. Darrell was very knowledgeable about everything. He and his team always turned up on time and communicated with us throughout the project. They painted the whole house including doors, windows, and radiators, and they even managed to give a new lease of life to some of our old built-in wardrobes. Darrell took his time to listen to what we wanted and he came up with the best solutions for our problems. We also had herringbone laminate flooring put down throughout the whole house and Darrell advised us on different options, he even went to look at some for us and helped us to choose the best option for what we wanted. We decided to paint all the radiators at the last minute and he wanted to make sure they did the best job so he even invested in specialist equipment for a high-end finish. We have been very particular about the colors and the finish we wanted and Darrell sourced the exact paint and colors. All the paintwork was done to perfection. They corrected all the cracks and holes and made everything look new. Darrell and his team are real perfectionists. Paul did all of our electrics. We've had spots installed throughout the house, new sockets, and outside lighting. Paul is also very knowledgeable and he`s done an excellent job. He is also happy to listen to your ideas. Darrell and his turned up on time every day, they worked throughout the hottest days of summer, and they`ve always communicated with us and kept us updated. They had a positive attitude throughout the renovation and even though we asked for extra bits they never said no. They are the builders you are happy to see every day and you just don`t want them to leave. We felt so lucky that we`ve found Darrell and his team we now regard them as friends, they`ve made all our visions come true and transformed our house into a home. We just can`t thank them enough and already hoping that we can have them back at some point for further home improvements.

Darrell and Dan created a wonderful family space in our new house: knocking down walls, installing beams, installing our new kitchen, new doors, floors and painting as well as putting back ceilings across the house. They did a brilliant job: we are so pleased and helped to create our dream family space! Darrell kept us in touch with every decision, noticing problems in advance and coming to us with solutions, helping out with advice for various bits of work and prompting us to sort the building services so we could get a completion certificate. Both Darrell and Dan were friendly, professional and left the house clean and tidy despite the big jobs they were doing. We cannot recommend them enough - Thank you for all your hard work!

DP services were very professional completing all work to a high standard, assisting with additional requests where possible and suggesting the best ways to overcome any problems, not necessarily the easiest. They also were very engaging with our young son, going above and beyond to make him comfortable with the change going on in the house. Would definitely use again.

I found myself messed around with other builders and came across DP Services. Darrell came round when he said he would, I had a quote a few days later which I was happy with and work started 3 weeks later. Both Darrell and Dan were both lovely guys who did a great job which finished with plastering a bedroom and a couple of extra ceilings. They tidied up at the end of every day and you would never of known they were there. I sit back now thinking I’m so pleased that nothing happened with the other companies as my situation now could be so different, thanks guys.

DP Services came to view our property to quote for external decoration of all woodwork for house and garage. We were impressed with their professional approach and before they had time to provide their quotation we contacted them for emergency help with a leak. They responded very quickly and saved the day. Shortly after they fitted new units and a belfast sink in the Utility Room. They returned in June to paint the exterior woodwork of the house and garage, taking off the guttering and replacing it with new parts where necessary. Darrell and Dan went the extra mile to replace broken soffits, repair drainage and fit new cabin hooks to French Windows. The standard of their work was extemely high and we are delighted with the result, only wishing we had discovered them sooner! They were a pleasure to have around and we have no hesitation in recommending them.

We found DP Services via the Which Trusted Trader scheme and phoned to ask about replacing flashings on a patio roof and some tiling and redecoration in a utility room. Although the two jobs were quite different, Darrell was an expert on roofing and building while his son Dan was the decorating expert. The work was properly quoted and the price was competitive. Job timing was agreed and everything went to plan. Both jobs were completed to a very high standard and we were kept in touch throughout with what was happening. Darrell and Dan had a thoroughly professional commitment to their work but they were also very approachable and helpful with advice and in keeping us up to date with what they were doing. We are very pleased with the quality of the work and the fact that Darrell and Dan were both so positive about their work and so easy to get on with. We would be very happy to work with them again.
