Thank you so much Ignacio it means a great deal to us to get your feedback. I will make sure your team get the credit they deserve.
Very professional outfit
Worked with Michael Pickering - I found him professional and personable, after some communication teething problems with the contractor, it was a much smoother process. I believe he really advocated on our behalf - letting us know what progress truly felt like and keeping the builder in check. Learned a lot using them.

Excellent service
DGA are providing project management and QS for our residential refurbishment and extension in South London. This is a sizeable project and they have added huge value immediately. No problem is too small and they genuinely care about timelines, cost and customer service.
