D G Webb have done a number of jobs for my family and I over the years, every one has been top notch and I would happily recommend them to anyone reading this. Most recently we had them come and make some alterations to our bathroom, including some tiling and installing a new shower screen. We were really happy with the finished work, which was to a very high standard and fixed a problem we previously had where water was starting to get onto the wall under the tiles. Even though wed used them before this job, D G Webb were still competitively priced and were able to beat other Tradesmen's quotes. Other work weve had done includes brickwork on damaged garden walls (which were not only fixed but improved by their work), and repairs to our chimney at home, which was leaking water into the master bedroom and causing a severe damp problem. Since they sorted this we have had no further problems. Even though the work was at the top of a scaffold tower and would never be seen from the ground, they still took real care and pride in the finish, making sure it was all pointed up to look good and that all the lead work was water tight. D G Webb are the kind of tradesmen you dont see around very much any more, trustworthy, well priced, really easy to communicate with and always happy to chat if you have any concerns or questions. They are friendly and polite, work quickly and efficiently and produce really high quality work which you would struggle to find elsewhere. I can very happily recommend their services to anyone reading this, and would without a doubt use them again for any work in the future.

D.G.Webb came and did some work in my flat. Very happy with the quality of work and finished product. Quick and easy to speak to them, and they were happy to take onboard my wishes. Would recommend to friends and family and use again for any job.

Worse builders ever award goes to DG Webb! Not sure how much Google will let me publish, so I'll try to keep this short and let the photos where possible paint a thousand words. Here's why I'd never use these guys again. Lack of planning: floor was laid and then dug up to accommodate pipework and electric cable. Skylight window incorrectly fitted so rain/melting snow ran down the underfelt. Wall built under the skylight window so it couldn't be opened. Underfloor heating damaged and unusable in it's current state before it's even been commissioned. Walls so crooked the plasterer had to build up the wall with 2inches (5cm) of plaster. Appliances damaged and covered in dirt. Despite a skip out front, the garden left with rubbish stacked up, often with sharp objects (nails in wood) protruding. Radiator broken and escape of water damaging carpet. Holes drilled through pipes, and straight through walls to good plaster the other side. Tools left lying where they were last used (including outside in the wet). Ignoring the danger of leaving sharp blades about, if a workman can't respect his tools, what respect do you think he has for his work. Soil pipe flash work appalling. And to top it off, they have now abandoned the work, leaving us with a worksite for a garden, complete with a very large deep hole where they were going to put a soakaway, and no usable kitchen. Please take time to look at the photos and you'll see I'm not even close to exaggerating. Update and in response to Owner: The photos are accurate, unless you are suggesting that someone was going to take the plaster off the wall to straighten it. As for the rest of your response, it is full of lies, but you know that because we've already had this conversation privately where is was clearly stated that due to the poor ongoing quality issues, we didn't want you back, but we did need you to come back as you left us without a kitchen, a dangerous garden, several jobs unfinished and kitchen fitters scheduled. As for the payment terms, I paid exactly what we had agreed and is on your document, but when you wanted me to pay your sub-contractors directly to avoid them going through your books (and so avoiding the much needed National Insurance contribution) I refused, then you left and went on to another job, apparently not for the first time, without any further conversation. Your brother even said see you Monday, having spent the day secretly taking away any useful materials that I had paid for.
