I started my project around 4 years ago. 2 companies looked at the project and decided at the end it was too difficult to marry the 2 garages together. I then approached a concrete garage company in Scotland only to be put through the mill with no end in sight. I was going to give it one last try and spoke with Duncan Welsh from Welsh Builders limited. What a breath of fresh air.
From planning, through design to the completed garage was completely stress free. Not only did the company deliver exactly what I required years ago, they listened to what I wanted, designed, manufactured and installed it using only quality products to ensure it was built above existing standards.
Deposit paid and nothing to pay until the handover from Welsh Building Company was also reassuring in today's pay upfront with nothing to show for it culture.
If you are looking for an of the shelf garage or something a little more complex then I can only offer my words of wisdom. Forget the rest and go for what can only be the best supplier and manufacturer of garages in Scotland. You will save time, money and stress in the long-term.
My thanks to each and every member of staff at Duncan Welsh Builders Ltd for delivering and keeping your promise throughout the project.
Thank you all.

We contacted Welsh Builders to see if anything could be done for our old garage which was leaking badly from the roof and the front door was un-usable.
Duncan came out promptly and gave us a quote to undertake repairs to the existing structure which we were happy to go ahead with.
I cannot praise highly enough the work carried out by the men from Welsh, everything has been done to a very high standard and they kept us informed every day of what would be happening next. In addition, all of the workers were a pleasure to deal with and very professional and hard working.
We are delighted with the final outcome which has given us a usable garage for the first time in 20 years.
Highly recommended.

1) An old wooden garage was dismantled and the site cleared.
2) Existing base checked and extended to accommodate a store room at the back of the new garage.
3) New garage erected and electrical cable installed from the house down the garden from the house, a considerable distance.
4) The garage has an electric door and the store has electric light and two windows.
We had considerable discussion about colour, trim etc and everything was just as we wished.
The site was left in first class order and the men were courteous and left everything neat and tidy.
A first class service.
We had used this company before at our first home 53 years ago and sought them out again .

Purchased a new sectional concrete garage from D. Welsh. Duncan visited our home with samples and advice on the best options for us. He also took care of the Planning Application and the Archiology works which were required by Planning.
The ladies in the office kept us well informed with the works that Duncan was dealing with.
All operatives on site were excellent and produced a very good quality build which we are delighted with. Work area was cleaned every night by the operatives on site.
I would highly recommend D.Welsh Garages to anyone based on my experience with them. They may not be the cheapest on the market, but you get great advice, service and product which makes it worth it. Great value for money.

I was very happy to use Welsh builders to put a new roof on my garage. I was most impressed with how the workmen dealt with the asbestos on my original garage roof. They carefully removed it and safely disposed of it to a designated place.
I was so impressed with their workmanship I also used Welsh builders to screed my garage. The men were efficient preparing the floor before the cement mixer lorry arrived. Once the cement was laid, the men were very particular smoothing it out.
They advised me to keep the garage door open for a couple of hours for a few days and by 7 days I could drive my car into the garage.
I would highly recommend Welsh builders if you want a job completed to a very high standard!

We have a large double garage but unfortunately it had two doors with a central pillar supporting the roof and each door wasn't really wide enough for a modern car. We wanted the pillar taken away and a single electric roller door fitted. We had numerous companies out to quote for the work but did not feel comfortable that they were fully confident of how to carry out the structural aspect of things. Fortunately we came across D Welsh Builders ltd who inspired us with confidence right from the start and explained exactly how they would go about everything. They did an excellent job and we are absolutely delighted with the result. They also sorted out all the necessary paperwork with the council for the building warrant etc. The team who carried out the job were very professional and took a real pride in getting everything just right. It wasn't cheap but I am so glad we went with this company and highly recommend them.

This is a superb company which I highly recommend.
I had a garage door/floor that allowed rainwater to flood the front half of the garage, making that area unusable, together with a side door that other companies were reluctant to touch as the lintel had a large space above it which was covered with wood and the actual door space was not a standard size. In addition the vehicle access door was rusty at the bottom due to sitting in rainwater for a large part of the time.
This company expertly fitted a new vehicle access door, a new side door and laid a new sloping garage floor (screed) which, together, doesn’t allow water or debris to enter. I now have a beautifully dry and secure garage which also looks brand new. I am delighted with it.
To top this off, the men involved communicated with each other to ensure that the job was done to the highest of standards and during that time were cheerful, polite and professional. Nothing was too much trouble.
I wish all companies were as competent and committed to doing a good job as this one and I would not hesitate to use them again.

I had my dilapidated up-and-over garage door replaced and a side access door to the garage installed.
My experience of this company from start to finish has been exemplary. Duncan came to inspect the garage and was totally honest about what needed to be done and what didn't. On the day, he gave me a rough estimate of the work to be carried out and advised a formal quotation would follow by email allowing me to read through everything thus enabling me to make an informed decision. Another member of staff arrived the week before work was due to begin in order to assess and confirm the work that was to be done. Two chaps arrived on the day and carried out the work as per requested. A short while after they had left, Duncan arrived to check that everything had been carried out as per the quotation and to my satisfaction. On both visits, Duncan was prepared to take the time to explain everything and to make recommendations based on what he could see. Any questions I had were answered truthfully and if I asked for something to be done that wasn't necessary, he told me thus avoiding unnecessary and additional expense on my part. In this day and age, it's refreshing to find a company who puts their customers first; who looks after their customers and who takes pride in their standard of work.

Just had our new garage and driveway completed last week. From first meeting with Duncan to discuss our requirements and options right through to completion of project we received nothing less than a professional service.
His workforce were outstanding, hardworking and friendly and kept the place tidy at all times.
Communication from Duncan was excellent.
Would have no hesitation in recommending D Welsh Builders to anyone needing building work and would unreservedly use their services again if required.

Time had come for our old leaking sectional garage roof to be replaced.
I had already selected Kingspan insulated sheeting for the new roof and Welsh had experience in providing this long with a service for removal of the old asbestos sheeting with controlled and safe disposal. Followed by complete installation of the new roof sheeting and facias.
The work commenced on the day that was arranged despite the most terribly cold and snowy weather. The workmen worked tirelessly throughout and completed everything by late afternoon leaving a superbly finished job and hardly a trace of them having been there other than the new roof.
Should you be thinking of replacing your garage roof like us you could not chose better than D Welsh Builders Ltd.

I wanted a custom built irregular “L” shaped garage. Welsh understood all my requirements and designed exactly what I wanted. The standard of workmanship and the standard of build was fantastic. The guys were prompt every day on site and despite terrible weather completed the demolition of the old and construction of the new garage exactly as programmed. Even a last minute change to the positioning of the side door was not a problem. Despite current conditions the guys worked safely and distanced outdoor without any issues. Welsh came highly recommended by a family member and I can’t praise enough. As always you get what you pay for and I am delighted.

Very pleased with my new Welsh built garage. This project involved removing old garage and foundations, constructing new foundations, building new traditional block build garage, installing electrics including remote sectional door, pebble-dash garage to match house.
Everyone who worked on garage were very friendly and professional – they did a great job so thank you to all of them.
As this was a substantial investment, I did not want to end up with something that could disappoint through being sub-standard in some way. Even though they were not the cheapest quote I chose Welsh because I believed they would meet my quality expectations. I judged this on their good reputation and talking to Duncan Welsh who was very good at explaining options and gave detailed quotes covering the different options.

I have recently had a full garage refurb - roof, windows, electric door. I can only say that three words would describe this company - service, quality, workmanship. Five stars for all. From the minute I visited their showground to the completion date, everyone involved showed care and professionalism. Duncan Welsh himself did the survey and returned on completion to sign the job off. There was one little hiccup, but when I informed him, he was there immediately and had it rectified. Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I wish all companies worked to this standard.

This is to record our gratitude for the building of our new garage by D Welsh Builders.
Dealing with Duncan and his team has been a pleasure.
From our first visit to uplawmoor to see their display garages to Duncan's first site visit and then his work with planning application and obtaining a building warrant has been excellent, especially when faced with a few hurdles to overcome with the above departments. Duncan's regular visits on site during the work was also appreciated.
We have had a good number of Welsh employees during the demolition and rebuild process. They worked in some very wet weather for a couple of the days but it never stopped the quality of their work. We found them all very friendly and a pleasure to have doing our work. Thank you Drew, John, William, Ian and Liam . We also had sub contractors who also did an excellent job and were also very helpful and friendly .Thank you Kevin and Stephen and Bajiter and Joe.
We would also like to thank Allison who works in the office foe dealing with many queries during the last few months in a very friendly and helpful manner.
We would certainly recommend Welsh Builders for any works you might require.

From start to finish we received nothing less than professional service for our garage refurbishment. Living in a conservation area, they helped us through the planning process. Once granted made sure we were happy with the dates everything was to go ahead. They turned up exactly on time on the proposed dates and completed the job within the agreed timescales. We now have a functioning garage and we could not be more pleased. I would have no hesitation in giving them 5 stars.

Recently had a double sized garage built by Welsh.
The advice and service from start to finish was excellent.
There was no high pressure sale. They arranged removal of old single garage, with asbestos roofing.
They’re team was clean, tidy and professional right the way through.
They made sure I was totally happy before paying balance.
