JULY 2010 - LANGDON HILLS - MR & MRS NASH

I found DCS in the yellow pages and looked at your website. With all the great things that was said about DCS I thought no builder could be that good (You hear & see such bad things on the TV).

But you are as good as all the people on the website said you were - and better. I would have no hesitation on recommending DCS to family and friends. Hope we recieve a favourable quote for the driveway, patio and shed base.

JULY 2010 - EASTWOOD - MR & MRS DEDMAN

Excellent. We were listened to and advised well in our design needs. The workmanship was professional, tidy and reliable with a great result. Not cheap but good.

We have been happy to have subsequent projects carried out.

JUNE 2010 - BILLERICAY - MR & MRS OFFORD

Our garage conversion project was completed on time and to budget. We were kept fully informed at all times of the schedule of work. We knew what we were getting, and were not disappointed! The finished project is excellent. Your team were not disruptive, tidied up well each night and were clean and tidy.

Everyone was courteous and friendly, but Dean especially was attentive and very helpful - 10/10

JUNE 2010 - HULLBRIDGE - MR & MRS SAMUELS

Good organisation meant the job was completed with minimum disruption and with good communication any problems were able to be resolved.

MAY 2010 - THORPE BAY - MR & MRS HARRUP

Dean did an excellent job in ensuring the various tradesmen arrived on site at their appointed time. He always was available to answer and speedily resolve any minor problems encountered. It made all the difference to be able to refer any matter to the one person.

MARCH 2010 - RAYLEIGH - MR & MRS WORRALL

Our shower room has been transformed! Through good design, installation and good quality products we now have a first class shower room. Thank you for assisting us with our insurance claim. It proved to be a lengthy process but with your help we got there in the end!

DCS always provide a high standard of work. Your staff are always polite and professional and we look forward to working with you on future projects.

FEBRUARY 2010 - SOUTHEND ON SEA - MRS WHITE

If you want a good job well done get the best. I've had cowboys in the 40 odd years I've lived in my house and you end up paying more money with a job badly done. Thank you dean for your help and guidance. Also Lenny, what a pleasant young man, his phone calls ect. Well done.

FEBRUARY 2010 - BURNHAM ON CROUCH - MR & MRS HALL

Thank you Dean and Ben for giving us a wonderful home, to have a functional kitchen a light, airy feel to what was a dark terraced lounge, and a warm dry bathroom has improved the quality of life enormously. Your advice before and during the build added value to the project and ensured we achieved the very best end result. We would not hesitate to use DCS SERVICES again, knowing that we would get a safe, quality build by professional, considerate tradesmen.

JANUARY 2010 - HULLBRIDGE- MR & MRS RICHARDSON

Thank you for your work, as always - Quality finish and reliable service!

JANUARY 2010 - THORPE BAY - MR WALDEN

Thank you all at DCS for another professional job!

NOVEMBER 2009 - SOUTHEND ON SEA - GILLS OPTICIANS

When we looked for a company to help us create our dream Optical Practice, we didn’t want to use an Optical shop fitter as we knew we’d end up looking like every other opticians in England. Despite this being a first shop fit for DCS, Dean and his team attacked the project with drive, determination and imagination. We handed Dean and his team a concrete bunker and an outline of our vision and with seven very quick weeks they handed us back a work of art. They followed our requests to the letter, added some brilliant suggestions and the result is commented on by passers by all day every day.

Once you’ve had DCS- there really is only one place to go in the future. I can’t wait for them to do my kitchen!

NOVEMBER 2009 - BILLERICAY - MR COUSIN

Great team, great ability to overcome issues, but also willing to discuss with customer. Highly Recommended!

SEPTEMBER 2009 - RAYLEIGH - MR & MRS BEATTIE

Worked around our child birth schedules, twice. This is the second time we have used DCS for extensions to our property, we gave glowing feedback first time around. With the 2nd extension to the kitchen Dean worked around pregnancy and price, we were given a lot of design ideas and thoughts which have helped us get the perfect use of our new space. We are very satisfied. If I had more money, I would get you back again tomorrow, Cheers Dean.

SEPTEMBER 2009 - SOUTHCHURCH - MR & MRS LEWIS

SEPTEMBER 2009 - HULLBRIDGE - MR & MRS SAMUELS

Well done DCS for a job finished in good time and to a high standard. Your friendly and helpful services exceeded all our expectations.

JULY 2009 - HULLBRIDGE - MR & MRS RICHARDSON

Overall we are very pleased with the quality finish of work and Dean's project management as a whole. However, the problems with the kitchen appliances could have been handled better. We wished that all appliances were tested and demonstrated in front of us to ensure they worked. Dishwasher faulty was due to installation error, which was poor and should have been fixed.

DCS REPLY: We totally accept responsibility for the errors on appliance installation and appreciate Mr & Mrs Richardsons constructive comments. All future installations will have a visual demonstration with the customer before handing over the Kitchen - Mr & Mrs Richardson still remain satisfied clients and are planning further projects with DCS. These projects have now been completed and they have given the comments bellow.

JUNE 2009 - BURNHAM ON CROUCH - MR AND MRS TAYLOR

We were very satisfied. What also impressed us was the fact that all the rubbish was taken away and everything cleaned up.

FEBRUARY 2009 - BENFLEET - MRS L GAME

From start to finish everyone was so professional and a pleasure to deal with. Not once was I let down by people not turning up when they’d agreed. All the workers were clean, tidy, polite and quiet. Nothing was too much trouble. All my questions and concerns were dealt with. Great care was taken at every step to make sure of a great finished product.

My kitchen looks amazing. Thank you to you all, but especially to Ben.

FEBRUARY 2009 - PITSEA - MR & MRS GOOD

Thanks Dean for a job very well done!! The annexe was built in the time you promised with very good quality of workmanship, with contractors on time every day putting in a full days work! Any problems were quickly resolved.

JANUARY 2009 - BENFLEET - MR & MRS SASSE

I have been consistently delighted by the quality and delivery of service and would not hesitate to recommend this company.

NOVEMBER 2008 - ROCHFORD - MRS FAUNCH

I was widowed 6 years ago and since then have had numerous work done in my home for maintenance and improvements. I can honestly say that DCS have been the best company I have had, both thorough and trustworthy. The “simple” job of re-instating and fitting a new shower room turned in to a nightmare, or so I thought when my shower wall was found to be totally rotten with water damage. Mr Dean Dalton was there every step of the way, including dealing with my insurance company! The work schedule took a while longer than planned because of removing and re-building the wall, but still I am pleased with the work and would not hesitate in recommending DCS – thank you!

Rita Faunch

JANUARY 2009 - WICKFORD - MR & MRS BAKER

MANY THANKS

JAN 2009-NOAK BRIDGE BASILDON - MR & MRS REYNOLDS

We were extremely pleased with the excellent work carried out and grateful for advice given. Dean and Ben kept in constant contact keeping us up to date with how work was progressing. All the contractors were punctual and left everything clean and tidy. We would not hesitate to recommend DCS Services or to use them again. Well done and thank you.

JANUARY 2009 - RAYLEIGH - MR & MRS BEATTIE

Looking to commission a builder and have works on your home can be a stressful process, with Dean Dalton of DCS we found a honest,  professional and courteous man, who's personal and work ethic is reflected in his team, and other tradesmen brought in as our works required. We requested a seemingly simple extension to our 1920s built bungalow, but during the work, found significant water damage to the foundations of the house.  At all times Dean kept us appraised of developments, showing us problems then sharing options and solutions in lay terms.  Dean acted as our voice with our insurance company, architect and local authority, using his influence and contacts to good effect.  This was invaluable, as the consequent overrun of the building works coincided with the early birth of our son!

Dean was then very flexible with timing, us having an infant in the house and the builders in, asking us when we would like work undertaken, and fitting his other commitments around us - a very great help indeed. Our home is sound now, the bathroom and en-suite are both fantastic, plus the extension looks like it has always been there.  Would we use Deans services again?  Without question. I am glad we know a builder we trust  and have also recommended him both our parents, and some friends.

Mike and Claire, Rayleigh.

Dear dean, Hope this finds you well. Kesh and I and Risha would like to say thank you for your help and advice and installation of Milan’s wet room. Dean without the thoughtfulness of you and your team, Milan’s wet room could not have been this nice. We have been very impressed, the time you’ve spent with us ensuring you understood our requirements, your openness and to the point of even finding out more about Milan and spending time with him. As you know he has life limitation, complex medical problems and severe learning difficulties, and you made the point of spending some time with him, keeping this in mind at every stage of the project, for Milan as well as understanding time to be of the essence for the project-thank you. The horror and disappointing stories you people often hear about builders – rip offs, sub standrard work, however you and your team have proved to be great people to have in our home. Your experience and professional integrity, we value and honour. We could not have met or picked out a better team of people to do Milan’s wet room. You guys did it all with your heart in it – and this, cannot be found in any other in your line of work! Its been apleasure meeting you. Now we would not have anyone else to do any project in our home other than you. A big thank you to everyone. And you shouldn’t have got us the wine for us, isn’t it meant to be the other way round?..Thank you Love and best wishes Trusha and Kesh Parmar

MR & MRS WILLIAMS - HOCKLEY

Dear Dean, I just wanted to write and say how pleased Jackie and I are with the kitchen alterations you did for us. We were delighted with the result, and much appreciated your advice, care and attention to detail in every aspect of your work. Althought this must have been one of your smaller projects you took time to ensure that everyhting went smoothly, and was properly co-ordinated to ensure a fast and efficient service. We are very pleased to have found a local friendly and professional firm such as yours, and we have passed on your business cards to a couple of friends with the highest recommendation. We shall certainly be in touch when we get around to having a new bathroom.

ANN ABBOTT, OFFICE SERVICES MANAGER, NHS

"Many thanks for promptly attending site on Friday 22nd August, and working through the bank holiday weekend to clean up the flood damage to the building. Staff were able to return to their offices on Tuesday 26th August, and apart from a few water damaged boxes and files that had to be scrapped, work resumed as normal. A job well done by DCS Services I will certainly keep your details on file should we be unfortunate enough to have to call on you again."

MARGARET HYDE, MANAGING EDITOR, BBC ESSEX

MISS J PATERSON - WESTCLIFF-ON-SEA

We have been more than satisfied every time we have used DCS services.

All the staff are polite, friendly and professional at all times. I have always felt comfortable when I have been at home when they are working, this is not always the case with builders. DCS Services and their staff made a very difficult time much easier for us.
