Highlights
"This is superb work, and Derek was brilliant to deal with. 100% recommend."
"Derek is a true craftsman who takes real pride in his work. He is creative, reliable and a generally nice guy. The cupboard and shelving unit is gorgeous! We would highly recommend Derek. ."
"Just brilliant. Derek had a good understanding of what we wanted, offered some helpful adjustments and improvements and provided a clear mock-up and walk-through of what he planned to build. Was clear setting expectations prior to doing the work. The work itself is just excellent. A very high quality, no corners cut, and he was so tidy and thoughtful in minimising disruption - it really made a difference. Check out his Instagram for an example of his work - really impressive, and would certainly ask for Derek's services again."
