Customer reviews for this trader
I have used David Preece for a number of home projects over the last 13 years. I have always found him to be honest, hardworking, trustworthy, meticulous in his workmanship, he stays on the job until it is completed and tidies up after himself. He is very respectful of the fact that he is in someone's home. David has always supplied me with quotes before undertaking the work. He explains clearly what he will be doing. Following completion of the work he will always explain what he has done. I have been happy for him to work in my house while I am not present. The most recent job was completed Aug 2024. David and Adam his son carried out repairs to an outside shed and replaced 2 bathroom waste pipes. I was very pleased with the work that was carried out and would not hesitate to use his services again.
Mr Preece and his son built a retaining wall, steps with a handrail, and a ramp for our wheelie bins. Throughout, we were kept informed of progress, and very helpful suggestions were made along the way. We appreciated this, and are delighted with the results all done for a very fair price.
David and Adam removed Artex and skimmed three ceilings in our bungalow. David arrived within a few days of us contacting him and explained how he would do the work, and gave reasons for his specification. It was clear he knew his business. He and Adam arrived on time, did a superb job, and explained how the job was progressing and what they were doing throughout. They took care to cover all surfaces and cleaned up very well, which we were pleased about as removal of Artex and re-plastering is very messy work. Janet and I have no hesitation in recommending them, and would certainly ask them to do further work for us.
David and his son, Adam, have worked on our property numerous times over the past twelve years. Each and every time, we have been totally satisfied with their work and their professionalism. On this most recent occasion, they carried out several small repair and maintenance jobs to their usual immaculate standard and we were once again extremely pleased with their work and happy with the price paid. I have absolutely no hesitation at all in recommending David and Adam - they are skilled, trustworthy, honest and reliable.
David and Adam did an excellent job of renewing my garage roof at a very reasonable price, would definitely recommend.
After three years of being let down constantly by other so called tradesmen, we were directed to Derbyshire County Council's Trusted Trader. A great find, David and his partner did a very professional and satisfying job of renovating our front porch and some other house maintenance tasks that were in dire need of attention. Fairly priced with a posted estimate, the work was done on time and with no problems. We would recommend David to all for his honest, reliable and skilled workmanship. Spot On David. Thanks again.
Despite the problems posed by Covid, David and his son Adam did an excellent job to a very high standard. They always left everything clean and tidy. I would have no hesitation in using him again.
