Having been employed as a fitter for 35 years by leading Swansea companies Derek decided to go it alone in April 2011, with his wife Viki Jacobs providing the office support.
Their business has proved a runaway success and Derek’s found himself in great demand as more customers, both large and small, discover his high-quality, reliable, and personal service with fair and reasonable rates.
He enjoys excellent relations with his customers and is delighted to find that he is their go-to fitter.
Derek’s from a floor laying family – his father and three brothers have all been floor layers. Derek started learning his trade at age 15 and then left school the day after his 16th birthday and became an apprentice floor layer to his father George. That was over 40 years ago and Derek is still at it!
