Super helpful, friendly and efficient
We had the joy of having Mark & Noah with us for almost 2 weeks completing a bathroom refit. From the very first day of taking out the old bathroom, the boys were super careful to protect our home from dirt & damage. They completed all the work to such a high standard, they were so polite & friendly at all times. And they really thought about the job they were doing and made suggestions for improvements along the way that neither I nor the designer had come up with! They arrived on time every day and cleared up each day before they left - perfect houseguests. They were joined by a tiler & a plasterer for a day each (sorry I don’t remember their names!) who each also did amazing work to a very high standard. Darren was so helpful to allow us to book in extra work with other jobs in the house while we had the ‘experts’ there to do them for us and the boys tackled them all with professionalism- even when faced with a mountain of granite dust! We are absolutely delighted with our new bathroom and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Darren and his team to anyone considering having work done. I’m trying to find more work to do at home so we can have them back!

Full Kitchen,
Complete floor to ceiling plastered with new electrics, all new appliances. Darren, designed the kitchen and added the appliances, the design was that good all we had to do was pick the colour. Really polite workers who were very professional and did the job in no time. Absolutely no complaints thanks Darren and the team.

Great work and fantastic team
We asked Darren to refit our kitchen last year and he did such a good job that we asked him to refit our bathroom and toilet including removing a wall. Well, we were not disappointed. Darren's team were all very professional, tidy and friendly. There were a couple of small issues which were sorted out very quickly. We have nothing but praise for the way our job was handled and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Darren and his team.

Fantastic Kitchen Installation
We were introduced to Darren through the kitchen supplier. From our initial meeting to the completion of the kitchen we were very impressed with the communication, standard of work throughout including plumbing and electrical work and the polite, well-mannered and extremely skilled workmanship of the team, we can honestly say we could not be happier. Will definitely use Darren and his team again for any future work and will have no hesitation in recommending him.

Professional competant and friendly
We chose Darren Watts to fit our Wren Kitchen as a result of the positive reviews on Which Trusted Trader and we were not disappointed. We were particularly impressed by the quality of the electrical and plumbing services. Their meticulous pre-installation planning identified two design issues which were resolved quickly. They programmed their work around our flooring contractor, but above all they were tidy and friendly. Their price was also lower than the one we were quoted by Wren. We would have no hesitation in recommending D Watts kitchen fitters

Kitchen redesign that we are delighted with
Introduced to Darren and his team via the kitchen supplier, we could not be happier with the end product, matched by a great experience throughout. Whilst not as big a job as some, ours was not a straightforward job, involving reordering of 2 rooms (remove a wall, rebuild another wall), stripping the space back right back, re-fitting all services, plastering walls and ceilings, decorating and then fitting a full kitchen, including appliances, lighting, flooring and heating. From Darren's initial survey visit, it was clear about the attention to detail, with good communication throughout. All of Darren's team were courteous, skilled and tidy! Each element of work was well planned, with a logical order to the work and, again, that real attention to detail. Really pleased with the end product, with a great family space to enjoy for many years to come.

Brilliant new bathroom & kitchen
The team did a fantastic job fitting a new bathroom and kitchen in two very tired rooms. Both rooms have been transformed and look amazing. They are all highly skilled, very professional, friendly, kept me up to date with progress and made great suggestions to improve the design. Their attention to detail is excellent and they cleared away the mess every day leaving everything tidy. This is the second time I have used D Watts and would recommend them without hesitation.

Fantastic work
I have just had a new bathroom fitted - which involved the bathroom and WC knocked into one, a new kitchen, cloakroom, lounge re-decorated- involving plastering of walls, re-decorating of the hall, landing, stairs and a bedroom. The whole team were amazing, very professional and friendly, taking great pride in their work. A few 'hurdles' were encountered and overcome - nothing was too much trouble. I was extremely impressed with the high quality of the work carried out. I am delighted with the results and l'm loving my home again! I would certainly recommend Darren and his team.

Tricky little bathroom upgrade!
I have recently had a comprehensive bathroom upgrade completed by Darren Watts and his team. This involved knocking a small separate WC and bathroom into one bigger room, and complete refit. The work included demolition of a blockwork wall, along with considerable replastering of water damaged surfaces. I was very pleased with the drawn design proposals initially, and the quality of work and fittings has made it a total pleasure to use. The team that carried out the work, including plumbers, tilers etc., came up with ideas for finishing touches that enhanced the final appearance - they also made what is obviously a very disruptive project into something that was as painless as possible! A lot of care was taken to protect adjacent areas from dust and damage. I would have no hesitation in recommending Darren and his colleagues for any similar project, where good craftsmanship and finish are very important.

Shower Room Refurb
I highly recommend D. Watts Bathrooms and Kitchens. They recently carried out a complete shower room refurb with which we are entirely satisfied. Coming up with ideas that we hadn’t even considered. The fitters, Mark and Noah were excellent making sure everything was cleaned up and neat and tidy before going home each night. Thanks D. Watts Bathrooms and Kitchens.

Complete kitchen beautifully fitted
We had a new kitchen installed by Darren and his team. They were amazing and did a very professional job. They we very friendly from the outset and informed us of what they would be doing each day. The old kitchen was removed and the new one fitted within 6 days. We showed the tiler how we wanted the tiles to look and he followed the pattern exactly - even in areas we had thought it would not be possible. The tiling was complete within an extra 2 days. We took up Darren's suggestion about where should be tiled and this looked great when it was done. Darren's team always tidied up at the end of the day and worked incredibly hard each day. We now have a beautiful new kitchen and highly recommend Darren.

Great Professional Job... Many thanks
Darren and his experienced team of installers did a highly professional job and we’re delighted with the result. We had a couple of issues during the installation which had nothing to do with Darren’s team. They were however patient and able to offer helpful advice to resolve these issues. Overall a deserved “5 Star” service as any new kitchen (ours was from Wren) is only as good as how its installed . Thinking of a kitchen installer? then I would highly recommend Darren Watts.

Excellent Kitchen Installation
Darren Watts and his team carried out the work of fitting our Howdens kitchen. From the point of the initial meeting to discuss the design, to the completion of the project, we were impressed, by the quality of work, together with the friendly, polite, and helpful trades people. Everything happened on time, and we were kept informed.

Very impressed
We used D Watts to install our kitchen recently. The job was not entirely straight forward as we needed the ceiling replaced and sink moving. Our house is an old house and therefore these jobs need to be carried out with respect and care. Right from the off Darren was helpful, clear in his communication around timelines and what the job would involve. This helped manage my expectations. I am a keen cook with 5 hungry mouths to feed and I expressed that I would find it very difficult to have no kitchen for any extended time. I felt that Darren and the team listened to me and went to real effort to allow me to cook in the kitchen even when it was not complete. The team were a pleasure to have in the house: hard working, reliable and good at communicating at each stage of the process. They were also really nice lads! I am thrilled with my kitchen and the whole family is enjoying the fruits of D Watts's labour. I would heartily recommend them.

Mr & Mrs Blackburn New Kitchen
We were very impressed with the kitchen fitters, they carried out a fantastic job and we were kept fully informed, the plasterer and the tiler turned up as promised and the work area was always tidy at the end of the day. Nothing went wrong but we are sure any problems would have been resolved with the minimum of fuss, we would highly recommend Darren and his team if you are looking at kitchen/bathroom renovation

Highly recommend
We had a bathroom and an en-suite ripped out and renewed. All the workman involved were punctual, polite and professional. The standard of work is faultless and the property was left clean and tidy at the end of each day. The works were completed on time and if I ever need this type of work done again or a kitchen renewal D Watts will be the first person I call.

I had a kitchen fitted in January by D Watts. Michael was the fitter and then Matt tiled it.
We had a kitchen fitted in January, bought from Wren and fitted by D Watts. We were both amazed by the quality of work that Michael carried out. We had some extra bits added that did not seem to be expensive and nothing was too much trouble. Michael and his team were very polite and helpful and even though we were away when the work was done we were kept informed every step of the way. To be honest I didn’t expect it to look as good as it did when finished, it exceeded our expectations and one month on we are both still enjoying having a kitchen exactly as we want it. With regards to workmanship it is of a very high standard and all mess and rubbish was cleared. Darren popped in too when the work was started and his relaxed demeanour instils confidence. I would happily recommend his company to anyone thinking of having a kitchen fitted.

A fantastic bathroom created
Darren Watt's team completely refurbished and refitted our ageing bathroom. The whole job was carried out in a really professional manner with all the various teams involved working well. Nothing was too much bother and extra problems discovered were rectified without fuss. All the workers were polite and nice people and worked really hard but always cleaned up at the end of the day. any issues were checked with me as we went along. My wife and I are really over the moon with our new bathroom and cannot believe it is the same room. All our thanks to Darren and his team. Steve and Yvonne White.

Fantastic Work
Our fourteen-year-old kitchen was hanging by a culinary thread (certainly not appreciated by my wife … I do cook too though!). Had inherited it from the previous owner when we bought the place and made it more palatable with modern appliances. After having done our bit of kitchen research via John Lewis, a private kitchen designer, and B&Q we decided on Wickes who from beginning to end proved to be an excellent choice: highly helpful and there when needed (esp during the snagging process). The prices quoted by all the above incl. fitting were six of one and half a dozen of another. Wickes recommended Darren Watts of Post Design Fitters, Colchester. - Darren Watts and his chaps had to deal with a complete refit: remove floor to ceiling tiles, render walls, skim ceiling, rewire and modernise electrics throughout … and so on and so on … and last but not least, fit the kitchen. The task for a DIYer like myself would have been daunting to say the least (esp. the electrics). What Darren and entourage did in excellent time was astounding and beautiful. A very solid and clean job indeed. The snagging list (two minor items: adjustment of hinges) was attended to professionally and quickly. Thus, thank you Darren and to your team a big thank you also (names that stick: Brian, Marc, Charlie, Craig, Ian … etc. etc. can’t remember them all, but all excellent). [Duration of job: 4 weeks rather than 2, down to late delivery of Rangemaster]

Reliable, good quality installation.
D. Watts' workmen turned-up when expected and regularly every day and completed a removal and refit between Monday morning and Friday afternoon. The quality of the workmanship was excellent and they were very tidy. We would certainly recommend them.
