What our customers say about us
"Daton have done several jobs as part of the kitchen projects my company design and install.
I find Dave and the team knowledgeable, responsive and flexible to the requirements of the jobs - from a consumer unit replacement in a sheltered housing complex requiring strict compliance and certification to installing a new radial circuit for a range cooker with less than 24 hours' notice or upgrading cooker and socket circuits for a replacement kitchen in a period property that required fitments in keeping with the traditional interior - it was all completed professionally, to regulation and most importantly to the clients complete satisfaction.
I do not have any reservations in recommending Daton for any electrical project."
