Customer Testimonial - Clontarf

I contracted Devine Building Services on a gut feeling, as I somehow felt that Derek Devine was someone I could get along with. Happily I found this to be accurate. Derek was in all cases a professional and I can honestly say that I was more than happy with the quality of his workmanship and the staff that he had working for him.

Punctuality and attention to detail is his trademark. He was also very accommodating during the whole build process, as we where still living in the house whilst the building work was going on. An example of this was that I needed a temporary kitchen set up which they kindly assembled for me.

At any time, I was having difficulties, there was absolutely no issues trying to resolve them. There is no doubt that having a build job done is a stressful event, but this particular experience was made quite easy by Devine Building Services and this I thank them for.

I wish them all the success in the future and I can happily recommend Derek Devine and Devine Building Services to anyone considering the daunting idea of a building project."


Yours sincerely
