    Bathroom refurbishment

    Posted 05 March

    Ed refurbished our old bathroom. To do this he removed existing bathroom furnishings. The room was extended by removing an internal wall. He then constructed a new stud wall. and ceiling He then plastered walls and ceilings. The walls and floor of the bathroom were then tiled. Plumbing was completed by another tradesman. This was the fifth time we have had Ed complete work in our house. His workmanship and commitment to detail is excellent. He is completely reliable and he was open and transparent about all of the work undertaken and kept us informed throughout the work.

    Walls done in living room

    Posted 16 September 2024

    Eddie done a first class damp proofing job with our walls in our living room. From getting a quote from Eddie he explained everything that needed done which included removing sockets skirting boards and then replacing them (not like some other firms who expected you to remove them). He gave us a date and time to start and was on time everyday, he said it would take 4/5 days and he done it 4 days and I have to say he never stopped. He also done a minor job for us which he didn't have to at no extra cost. He cleaned up every single day there was hardly any dust. Would definitely recommend

    Damp proofing and floor repair

    Posted 03 April 2024

    Eddie has installed complete damp proof course in my flat as well as installing new floorboards in some areas, where wood had been damaged by rising damp / wood rot. This was a big job as most walls in the the flat had some kind of damp issue. Eddie turned up on time for the quote, he started and finished the work within the time stated and the work has been completed to a very high standard. His communication has been excellent throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Eddie for any damp work you may have.

    Rising damp and penetrative damp in living room,hall,stairs,landing and outhouse

    Posted 02 February 2024

    The gentleman showed up on time. I showed him all the areas of concern. He said he would get back in touch with a quote but never did. I tried ringing him on several occasions but did not answer or return any calls. If he did not want the job he should have told me when he came and I would not have wasted my time chasing him for the quote.

    Response from DPR Specialists

    I regret that I have let you down in this instance, to the point that you did not wish to let me explain the reason why I had not got back to you when I called you recently. My grandfather became very ill soon after I visited your property. The news came as a huge shock to me as we were very close, therefore as soon as I learned of his illness I went straight to see him, sadly he passed away soon after and I needed to take time off to manage his affairs, arrange and attend his funeral. I regret that I did not take all of my calls or respond to all of my messages at that difficult time. I take full responsibility and recognise that my customers deserve better service than I provided at that time. Please understand that this is not how I run my business, since I started out I have always tried to treat every customer as my only customer and I always aim to treat my customers just as I would like to be treated. Please also accept my sincere apology for not giving you the quote that I said that I would provide and for any inconvenience caused.
