Nightmare from start to finish. Never communicated once he’d got the job. Didn’t do the work as agreed and as per the contract. I had to get Marshalls involved and he even lied to the adjudicator in front of me. Surly is one word I’d use for him. I’ve just been asked for the name of our contractor but I won’t be recommending this firm. More...

David and team recently completed a project for us, which included a 4x3m extension at the back of house, conversion of our garage into a utility and additional room, and knocked down an existing internal wall, taking out our existing kitchen and did the prep work for our kitchen fitting by an external provider.
From point of engagement, David provided a friendly and consultative approach, providing ideas for the design. He provided a fully documented proposal with competitive pricing benchmarked against 3 other construction companies and amended it as the scope of the project changed.
Once onsite then from day one, David and the team were very tidy, respectful of our family, the house and neighbours – in fact we had several comments from neighbours how impressed they had been.
David has project managed our build in a way to cause minimum disruption for us. This included working with the building control inspectors, electricians, plumbers, plasterers etc. What we really feared when deciding to do the work, was having 2-3 months of drafts, dirt and mess. However the ‘inevitable’ disruption was much less than expected, as David ensured that as much of the external work was completed as possible before they came into the house to knock down walls, doorways and eventually the kitchen (to which he rigged up a temporary sink and kept the washing machine plumbed in so we could continue using them). Given that our project was late winter/early Spring 2018, we were really glad of the fact that at no point were we left exposed to the elements, our old French doors were not taken out until the new extension was fully enclosed.
As part of the Project Management, a number of contractors have been used, but all have been vetted and managed by David, both when onsite and for any snagging at the end of the project, and it just felt like they were part of the team.
We are very pleased with the final product – we have a lovely build, a huge amount of new space, and it all feels and looks very natural. The match on the bricks for the external work was excellent, to the point where at the front of our old garage you cannot make out the new and old.
A couple of things we really likes were that firstly we were the only job they were working on for that period, and were committed to finishing the work with us before moving to the next job (bar snagging and a couple of jobs waiting on our kitchen and flooring to be fitted). Secondly, at the end of every day, David would provide an update on progress if we were at home. This would include the work done that day, any issues encountered and updates on plans for the next day and week(s) ahead. This gave us a good amount of time to prepare for what was coming, and things we needed to do to get ready for them.
I would 100% recommend David and Daresbury Construction to do similar projects, and would be happy to speak to anyone wishing further re-assurances.
