Damien and his team built a kitchen / diner extension on to our house in 2016. It involved removing the existing kitchen and conservatory and building out on the same footprint. Supporting walls were removed and steel joists inserted to support the load. We were very happy with the result and have enjoyed the space a great deal over the years. Damien was very professional and kept the job on target with regard timescales and budget. Open to suggestion and took our wishes on board. Would highly recommend his services.

DJC Building services did a fantastic job for us. Taking out old kitchen, fitting new, new beam for load bearing wall to open up dining kitchen room and enlarging opening for patio doors. High standard of work, conscientious and flexible when any unforeseen issues arose, great communication and completed work on time and for the price quoted. I would happily use them again and recommend them.

We had a great experience working with Damien and his team from start to finish. He did an exceptional job with our project which involved challenging structural work inside our ground floor Victorian tenement flat, rewiring our new kitchen and installing steal beams and doing everything absolutely perfectly according to our architect's drawings and recommendations. Damien did all the work that was required prior to our new kitchen getting installed. A very reliable, friendly, and a very experienced builder. He always had the best advice for us and he works with equally experienced and reliable
