Installation of downlighters in bathroom, kitchen hallway and stairs.

Derek and his team were excellent. They turned up on time and completed all work to a high standard. We were kept updated at all times and alerted early to potential problems with our extremely dry lath and plaster ceiling. This meant that with Derek's help we could organise a plasterboard ceiling to be installed and the job finished only a half day late. Derek even came in for a couple of hours extra to assist with the installation of the plasterboard ceiling at no extra cost. Excellent service, nice guy would not hesitate to recommend DRC to anyone.
