Southeastern Railway
Dartford Composites have carried out all varieties of small panel repairs, paint work and even much larger train parts manufactured new for us over the last several years. I have been working with them for the last 12 months and everything they have produced for us is to the highest standard. Dealing with trains is difficult as they can’t always be stopped at the right place every time, Dartford composites will work around us to provide the service they offer even at fairly short notice. The staff are friendly and willing to talk you through their procedures when visiting their site and will leave no question unturned.

Plant Work Systems ltd.
Dartford Composites carried out specialised site work with us last year which involved carrying out repairs to GRP plates in a confined space which was awkward to access. The communication and responsiveness to requests was excellent, and the team on site were efficient and easy to work with. The quality of work was extremely high and all works were completed ahead of schedule. We are looking forward to doing a lot more work with Dartford Composites in the future.
