Service and repair

The initial request for a service was made promptly, and although there was a problem, they fitted me in after a cancellation for the repair to be done.
Both engineers were pleasant, considerate and understood my concerns.
They are a credit to the company, and I will not hesitate to use them in the future.

Excellent experience all round

Excellent experience all round, starting with the young lady in the showroom and ending with Gary who installed the lift, not forgetting Perry who did all the measurements. All the staff were friendly, professional, cheerful and efficient.
Thank you to Darren Chapman (electrician) for recommending Dolphin.

A great local customer focused company

My recent commutations to the office, (both on the telephone and via emails), were both easy and quickly responded to by two very nice ladies. The following and subsequent visits to me by two different engineers were also excellent, as they were both polite and knowledgeable regarding the product. It is nice to deal with a company that is customer focused.

Nothing was too much trouble and the finished stairlift has certainly made life easier. We were kept very well informed from the survey and quotation stage, to the ordering and fitting.
