Detailed reviews
Squeaky staircase Dave was great to have around to help problem solve a set of old creaking stairs. After a couple of attempts we got there and now are squeak free. Dave is very friendly, respectful and tidy - would definitely call DSL again!
Door open direction change Nice gentleman, very good work changing our en-suite door. Tidied up afterwards. Would recommend.
Very pleased with everything and I would use him again
I was concerned at the start, when the floor was laid without the appropriate tools ,I supplied them.Many of the floorboards have wide gaps, I was left to do door thresholds and making good the frame hinges.The ensuite door had a split in the lock which I had to glue.The same door ,lock fell out , I discovered it had no grub screw, this was found with 11 Allen keys and missing door screws in discarded boxes. The kitchen door only had 3 out of 9 screws in hinges.The whole Job was spread over a month when I was told about 4to5 days.It was rushed and resulted in bad workmanship.Not recommended.
Very pleased with the new doors and fitted furniture, David was efficient, tidy and polite. Would easily recommend him.
