Quick and efficient work
Dave installed a new extractor hood for me; discussed my options beforehand; stayed in touch throughout to plan and schedule the work; the new extractor hood works well. Good work and great value.Verified reviewerJob location: AL7Response from Dk Automation

Genuine person. Will be honest all the way re the work and money. A rare find!
Brilliant, reliable, trustworthy. I can't say a bad word! I am lucky I found him. My house was so badly wired that a fire was imminent. I had no idea! We had struggled with faulty electrics and had lived on extension leads. I'm now almost back to a normal house! It's been a challenge but he doesn't give up and I'm grateful! Very good prices and so friendly. As a female I am never uncomfortable with him in my house. Hard working and keeps me informed of everything he does. 10/10 *Verified reviewerJob location: EN1110 Electric Sockets

Excellent!
Very very happy to have found DK Automation. Someone who clearly knew what they were doing and went beyond just doing the job, suggested a couple of other issues that he had noticed. Would happily use again with any electrical issues.Verified reviewerJob location: SG129.67 Electrical Contractors
