Dean was really helpful throughout the process. We had a chunk of our monocouche render fall away from the house. Reached to a number of people but he is the only one who actually came out to try and get the correct colour by bringing samples, before ordering. If we'd gone with other people's recommendations from the photos the colour would have been totally wrong! Job was done quickly and to an excellent standard, would absolutely use DC Rendering again

Dean did a fantastic job repairing my ceiling. When it’s painted I’m certain there will be no evidence of the repaired all. Great communication all round, responded promptly at all times and was very flexible on dates and times for quotes and the repair.
Dave provided a very reasonable quote to plaster a bedroom. He arrived on time with a colleague and did a great job! Clean and tidy throughout, and the finish couldn't be better.

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
Check the WaterSafe registerAgree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top, in writing, before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced. Get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade, not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
