Site Survey

All site surveys, which are undertaken by members of our highly experienced team, include detailed existing gas, water and waste service examinations, as well as future usage estimates using high pressure and CCTV equipment. DKBS also provide testing for all existing chimney flues to determine their stability and safety, as well as checking CO2 levels. As standard practise, a detailed existing structure examination is conducted, including trial pits excavation to ensure the building meets all the necessary guidelines to safely proceed with future ground works. Stringent health and safety measures will be implemented throughout the site and security measures, such as a temporary secure perimeter or partial fence integrated with CCTV and alarm, will be put in place.

Ground Works

As the contractor onsite, DKBS carry out wide range excavations for new structure foundations, new ground water mains supply and waste lines and new power supply lines. We also excavate trenches for all new outdoor living spaces and playground structures, as well as the necessary landscaping for new trees and plants.

Our highly trained team has both the expertise and necessary experience to conduct extra deep excavations where required, such as for future basement areas, swimming pools, vaults and wine cellars. This includes providing temporary ground and earth wall supports and the rerouting of all necessary services.

New Build Buildings, Extensions and Existing Structure Removal

With 98 successfully completed projects already under our belt, DKBS has the experience required to fulfil any architectural brief, regardless of its design or the height and lengths of any structure or wall. We also have both the vision and the expertise to seamlessly tie new build structure walls into an existing building, creating the perfect marriage of old and new. We offer a comprehensive range of external wall coverings and claddings, starting from simple pointing on brickwork to the most sumptuous and exotic of hardwoods.

Structural and Decorative Steel Work

DKBS boasts a wealth of experience in designing, engineering, supplying and installing any size or type steel construction. From the basics of a single beam right the way through to the completion of a challenging multi-story complex structure and cantilever. We deal with wide side and long run heavy metal structures creating single span open areas from 20m2 to 200m2, or even larger when required.

We also design, supply and install any and all types of outdoor metal work, ranging from the simplest fence or handrail all the way through to specially engineered structural elements, completed in stainless steel, cast iron or a seamless spray finish.

Outdoor or Indoor Substructures

DKBS have the experience to provide a tried and tested solution to any type of internal structure. So whether the brief calls for a new timber structure or concrete build floors; stud structure or elegantly curved brickwork; bespoke measurements and extra long run walls; or multi levels with curved element ceilings, we CAN deliver. By utilising the very latest state-of-the art tools and technology, we can guarantee exceptional workmanship and perfect results on every project we undertake.

Indoor/outdoor Electrics, Power Supply and Lightning

The highly skilled electrical team at DKBS have years of experience working on a wide range of interior and exterior equipment installation types. We have the expertise to deal with all types of power supply, including single and multi level consuming units, house power circuits, appliance connections, complex power controlling units and motors, air and water handling units and indoor /outdoor/ submersible motors.

Indoor/outdoor Lighting and Complex System Controlling Units

At DKBS we provide and install an extensive choice of lighting solutions to suit any build or design brief. These include Lutron, LED, fibre optics, RGB and colour changing units. Submersible and built-in lights can also be incorporated into the ground, as well as any number of different surfaces such as timber, brick or concrete.

Our reliable team of contractors are also highly experienced in the installation of a wide range of audio-visual components, BT and Wi-Fi networks and complex alarm and fire inspection systems. We also install hot and cold water supply, waste and irrigation systems, and central heating and management systems.

All Aspects of Water Supply

DKBS contractors can, where viable, look to replace the mains water supply to increase the pressure and flow volume throughout the property. Should this not be achievable, we will instead install antibacterial water storage tanks and super quiet booster pumps that have the capability to increase the pressure up to 5-7 bar.

To combat issues caused by hard water areas (London and the South are particularly affected), we will always install a sophisticated water softening system as standard, to help protect and extend the life of all appliances in the property. We also introduce a hot water loop system at every project, which gives the benefit of instant hot water on demand.

During the last few years we have seen an increased demand for extensive under floor heating, both industry wide and amongst our own clients. While once just being used in rooms such as the kitchen, bathroom or WC, under floor heating is now being incorporated throughout the entire house. The removal of all radiators is perhaps particularly appealing for those looking to achieve a crisp and clean minimalist design. The only exception here would be heated towel rails, which would then be put onto a separate controlled loop system.

DKBS also installs bespoke water arrogation systems, which can be designed to accommodate complete flexibility when it comes to the size, length and number of jets required. These systems can either be controlled manually or via a sophisticated computer system, programmed for each individual project.

Painting, decorating and so much more

Upon completion of our construction services, our dedicated team of contractors are on hand to transform all aspects of the property’s interior, from guaranteeing an exceptional, professional and flawless finish on all walls, ceilings, doors and door surrounds, to the fitting of door and window furniture.

DKBS can work with luxurious handmade wallpapers and lacquering to add an instant air of elegance and richness to any room. We also supply beautiful, bespoke handcrafted furniture, available in a wide range of finishes, from hand painted or sprayed to the sheer elegance of classic veneer. All bespoke furniture is fitted onsite by a team of experienced specialist craftsmen.

If, in the future, either the client or their architect requires any minor adjustments or upgrades to be made, we are always happy to work together to achieve the desired end result. Regardless of scale, cost or prestigious postcode, DKBS takes immense pride in every project we do, from the simple classic contemporary designs to the most exceptional of palatial decor. We believe that professionalism and absolute attention to detail is key, and therefore both are at the heart of everything we do.
