Timber for the DIY SOS Project Swansea

Helping out DIY SOS Swansea

Last month we were contacted by the producers of the BBC show DIY SOS asking us to donate timber and wooden sheet materials to assist in the redevelopment and new build of the Roots foundation building in Penllergaer Swansea.

Initially i will be honest we thought that it was just another scam, each year we get hundreds of bogus calls asking us to donate timber or wooden flooring to various organizations, it becomes so difficult to separate the genuine from the fraudsters. However within a couple of days it became apparent that the project was going to take place as we had a number of Tradesmen ( Carpenters ), customers & Friends informing us that they were giving up their time at their own expense to assist in the construction of the project.

I would just like to say that It has been an honor to have been a small part of this amazing redevelopment project and we at D G Heath would like to thank the DIY SOS producers for allowing us to do so. What has also been amazing is the way that the tradesman of Swansea have given up their time and energy at their own expense to assist in the completing of the build in 11 days. Had it not been for these guys this amazing life changing project would not have taken place.

Here are a couple of images of the day that the New Roots foundation building was completed, once again well done to the tradesman who made the possible you know who you are.
