Report
DB Building Services recently constructed a rear , single storey extension and patio on my property. The works included bifold doors ,roof lantern, new kitchen, utility, shower room and underfloor heating. Dave, Rob and their team were exceptional from start to finish. The standard of work is of the highest quality and I highly recommend their services. It was a pleasure to deal with them from start to finish.
