DIY Marquees:
DIY Marquees was formed by Spencer King having spent over 10 years in the marquee hire industry (due to the sale of the hire company we are contractually not allowed to hire any of our marquees). It has been set up to provide marquee hire companies with high quality marquees and linings whilst also offering advice and industry contacts from experience.
C & D King Ltd:
C & D King Ltd has been manufacturing in the UK since 1979. Although increasingly difficult due to rising costs and increasing red tape we still manufacture as much as possible at our factory in Dorking. Originally set up by Colin & Diana King they have now been joined in the family business by their son Spencer who has added marquee experience to the engineering background of Colin.
We recently calculated the average length our employees have worked for us at over 18 years! That's longer than most others in the industry have been in business.
What our customers are saying...
"Thank you so much – We’ve been using the marquee and enjoying taking our lunch breaks in the sheltered outdoor space which it has created for us & we thought you’d like a couple of pictures 😊"
"The marquee we purchased from you has been a real 'game changer'... it has meant we can be outside in the rain and the sun! The children love it and it has totally transformed our workload as staff."
"Fantastic service, great carpet, helped make a really successful 21st for my daughter. Many thanks!"
"This marquee served us VERY well for over 5 years, erected as per the pics. We are up high in Hindhead and always suffer dreadful winds – the marquee never complained once!"
