About the Company

Company Directors: David and Jane Kennedy
The History
In late 1980 we decided that we would like to run our own central heating and gas fitting business from our then home at Highlands Road, Fareham. So in January 1981 we formed D.J. Kennedy Ltd. with a little help from our bank.

It soon became apparent that we needed more space, so in 1982 we moved to premises at Mays Lane, Stubbington. The business continued to grow, carrying out works for Local authorities and the DOE.  Further expansion took place through the 1980s with contract works for British Gas and building companies and a move to offices in High Street, Fareham .

Throughout this period we were building a large customer base installing central heating, renovating bathrooms and doing property maintenance works for both domestic and commercial customers  in and around the Fareham area.

In 1990 we had the opportunity to move to better premises in Beaconsfield Road, Fareham where we opened our first showroom displaying bathrooms and showers.

By 1995 we decided that we would prefer to reduce the company size and concentrate on our domestic customers in the Bathroom Central Heating and Property Maintenance areas.

The premises at Beaconsfield Road was not suitable for these activities so we began the search for more prominent offices in Fareham.

In 1999 we were fortunate to find an empty shop in West Street, Fareham where we set up the show room for gas fires, surrounds for gas and solid fuel fires and the accessories to go with them. 

Pat the showroom managerThe Present
D.J. Kennedy Ltd. now has a work force consisting of 3 plumbing and heating fitters, 2 bathroom and property maintenance specialists, 2 tilers, 1 gas fire and surround fitter and Geoff, our delivery driver and making good man.

The office is run by Jane with able help from Kathleen and the showroom is managed by Pat with part time help from her husband David.

All our operatives have been apprentice trained with those dealing with gas being Corgi registered. Geoff  is a time-served bricklayer, ensuring a high standard of finishes on all our works.
