Testimonials

"Dealing with Diamond Event Services is a pleasure. Their range of services is spot on, their staff are totally flexible onsite and are always happy to go that extra mile. Over the years I have used various crewing companies but have now found a service I'm sticking with!" Malcolm Todd, Technical Production Manager, Sound & Vision

"DES continued commitment to onsite Health and Safety is a key selling point to our business; the crew are always well equipped and carry relevant and current training certification to ensure that our strict working practices and H&S policy is adhered to.
During the tough economic downturn, DES took a proactive stance to ensure that the provision of crew was more flexible with respect to call hours and incentivised by a very attractive discount scheme. Price is where we inevitably win or lose business and DES' understanding of these pressures ensured we were always receiving best value.
The recent additions of the "Man and Van" and waste management event re-cycling services, shows that they are willing to diversify their business to complement the needs of their existing client base.
Overall DES is a friendly and approachable supplier that deserves the recognition of our industry." Stewart Macmillan, Senior Project Manager, MCL Edinburgh

"Technical and Event Services Ltd (TES) are delighted to support Diamond Event Services' entry as they are a professional, hardworking and reliable company who are always willing to fulfil our requests - no matter how short the notice period.

As a company based in the South East of England, TES finds it reassuring to work with a local grass roots company on the various projects we undertake in Scotland. The knowledge that an established company such as Diamond Event Services has of both local venues and the local area, adds value to our event in ensuring that our working environment is fully understood.
TES began working with Diamond Event Services over a year ago and appreciate their continual efforts to provide continuity of service along with the willingness to offer a solution that meets both service and budget.

"We called on the services of John and the Diamond team for Pedal for Scotland in 2009 and we were extremely pleased with what we got. Not only did John arrange to provide services at the 11th hour, but the team he provided were professional, courteous and extremely flexible in terms of what they would do on the day of the event. I would have no hesitation employing their services again, or indeed recommending Diamond Event Services to any other event organiser." Chris Simon, Perfect Motion

"MCL Glasgow is delighted to be associated with Diamond Event Services. It is good to be working with a local, yet Scotland wide company, who are able to accommodate our, sometimes, last minute crewing requirements." Bridget Fouhy, Project Manager, MCL Glasgow

"DES provides an excellent local resource with a can do approach and a good understanding of our standards and our commitment to clients. They become part of the team and as a small business that integration is key. Crew chiefs encourage ownership of tasks or problems which is another major benefit. As budgets have reduced and clients drive for value, the DES rates help deliver on time and on budget. Their bespoke approach to crew via the options, driver and additional services works for me!" Alan Gray, Glasshouse Events
