    Excellent service

    Really fast response,I was lucky enough to have the job completed the same day as requested. Lovely friendly gentleman who sounded happy in his work. Sorted the problem and left after ensuring that the connection had been resumed.

    Good work and good price.

    We needed a main landline socket relocating - John carried out the work with minimum fuss and to a high quality standard. The price charged was just as quoted and I believe very reasonable too. I would definitely recommend D&TCS.

    Real service in a difficult world

    This was a domestic call out for my father who is suffering with dementia and despite us trying to solve his broadband and landline issue we were stuck. John was incredibly quick to respond, completley understood the urgency for a man in his eighties to not have his landline and visited immediately. John solved the problem and has made the whole family extremly happy. It is great to work with someone with so much technical experience and maturity in understanding the situation. Thank you, John.
