Testimonials

Sanjiv Daman

"Thanks to David and Paul at DSB, our house is the most modern house in the street. Paul had to go through multiple design proposals with the council, as the original design was rejected saying it's too contemporary. He was very patient and happy to make amendments. The plans produced were very detailed. The builder was very impressed with the plans and he was able to easily follow it. We did not get any objections or concerns from building control inspections either. Just like good food takes time to prepare, good designs also takes time. It look over 6 months for the full process which includes the lead time for both stages and the lead times at council and building control. I would recommend DSB if you prefer quality over quick results."

"When it comes to any building work, finding companies that you can trust is becoming more and more difficult. The reality is that unless you’ve completed a building project before, chances are that you’re going to need some help to have a successful outcome. DSB were able to describe and discuss my requirements in the right level of detail to help us make educated decisions on our build. Would I use DSB? Well, put it this way, I wouldn’t use anybody else! Friends and colleagues advised me to get the planning right “first” time, otherwise I’d be in for stress on another level. I therefore began searching for a reputable company to assist with the project. DSB were suggested to me, but I was initially sceptical as they say that you should “never do business with friends or family”. As it turns out, the owner of DSB is actually both, so it’s with full disclosure that I write this review. I have very high standards (maybe too high at times), so I was always going to be over critical of every little aspect of the build, however the final outcome is better than I anticipated. DSB understand building regulations like no other and with their smart thinking and experience are able to offer solutions and ideas that you’d simply never have thought of yourself. Whilst monitoring the planning progress with our local council I came across other planning submissions and could not believe just how superior the drawings were from DSB, this confirmed very early on that I’d made the right decision to use DSB. Whilst the internal work continues the exterior is largely complete."

"We were recommended to Dave and his team at DSB Property Designs by a friend of ours. Would definitely recommend them to others. Very thorough and understood what we were hoping to achieve. Plans were produced quickly and extremely professional. We wanted to make minor changes and this was never a problem. Always at the end of the phone if we needed to clarify anything."

Deborah Cox

"We are really pleased with the design that David Blacker of DSB Property Designs Ltd provided for us. Our project involved converting our existing bungalow into a 2-storey 4-bedroom house and DSB Property Designs dealt with everything from initial concept through to planning and building regulation approvals. David was able to interpret our ideas exactly how we intended and put them into the design for our builders to bring to life and create our dream home. David has been extremely helpful and informative at every step of the way, and we would not hesitate to recommend DSB Property Designs Ltd."

Steve Allen

"I found DSB (Dave) on the internet, could not be happier with the service. I feel very lucky to have found him, I didn't know what to do with the space I had at the side of my property. Dave gave me great options that I wouldn't have thought we could do. Having never had a building project, I had no idea what to do, luckily Dave pretty much held my hand through the whole process, from first ideas to finished plans all approved - no hassle, no stress. I have done and will keep recommending DSB and of course his top quality work"

Janet McCheyne

"From the moment we contacted DSB, we were impressed with his professionalism, courtesy and attention to detail. He provided a very detailed fixed cost quote following a careful assessment of what was needed, and he offered some examples of previous work he had completed, including contact details for the customers. He responded almost immediately to all emails and 'phone calls and liaised very effectively with the local authority. I would recommend DSB without reservation."

Jamie Coombs

"Loft conversion - Essex area - What a great service, Dave ensured we understood the plans and the process. He also took care to do all he could to get the planning approval through. Excellent customer service, at a reasonable price. I would and I have recommended his services."

Ken Dellbridge

"We wanted our lowered kerb extended and found the council application forms complicated, particularly all the measurements they required. DSB promptly sent out surveyors who produced a professional plan which the council passed without question. DSB made the whole process easy."

Wend Webster

"Needing expert architect drawings for a driveway we couldn’t have chosen a better, more professional, friendly company than DSB.
