Highlights
“Steve & DGL are very reliable, clear in communications, helpful, prompt with a can do attitude & no nonsense approach throughout & keen to get it done & give a good service at a decent price. Highly recommend.”
“Hardworking, efficient and great value.”
“We instructed Steve and his team at DGL to lay our new driveway, build new walls, and repair some fencing. From the initial enquiry, detailed quote and the final completion of the job, we couldn't be happier. We had several quotes, but Steve's was the most thorough and provided absolute detail of the job and some well thought out recommendations. The team was polite, punctional, hard working, and delivered on an exceptional piece of work. We love our new driveway and couldn't recommend DGL more.”

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
