 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just prior to last Xmas our tenants informed me that the upstairs shower was leaking into the lower level bedroom, I called Digs who had his crew there immediately, damage was assessed and a planned hatched quickly. In short they had the leaking shower out a dehumidifier in and in a few days a new shower cubicle was installed for the tenants to use over Xmas. Post Xmas the crew came back and completed the finishing works to a high standard. Digs and his crew saved the day, days, holidays treated the property and tenants with respect, I can only highly recommend this team, New Digs will always be my first choice.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Digby is the best! Working with Digby for our builder's report was a truly amazing experience! He was able to help us on such short notice, and his report was incredibly extensive and thorough. The explanations were so clear and easy to understand that they gave me the confidence I needed to buy the house. Digby truly went above and beyond, even taking the time to call me and explain some of the details over the phone so I could ask all my questions. I highly recommend him!

They assisted us with a builder’s report before purchasing our new home and were incredibly prompt, professional, and thorough. Despite the short notice, they delivered a detailed and insightful report that gave us real confidence in our decision! Would definitely use them again for any building needs in the future.
