Damian Lee, the founder and owner of Bethels Property Services was born in Harrogate but lived in Ripon, his family then moved to Germany and then spent the first 9 years of his life travelling around the world due to his father being in the Army.
Living in Germany, Brunei, Hong Kong and then based back in the UK where his Dad was finally stationed in Preston, Lancashire. This is where Damian decided to settle down.
When he left school, Damian went to work for a national kitchen company building bespoke kitchens along with some fitting. At this time he had no family restrictions, so Damian decided to change professions and went into hospitality working in pubs and restaurants. He decided to challenge and progress himself more and trained in a degree in Hospitality Management for Hotels. During his first and second years of University, Damian went travelling all over the world, including Hong Kong, New Zealand, U.S.A. and Australia.
After working in hotels all over the country before his final one in the Ribble valley, Damian decided he needed a change from the unsociable hours having met his partner and deciding to start a family.
His father had a workshop in Blackburn and with his experience in woodwork, Damian chose to go back to working for a construction firm based in Lancaster, learning a new set of skills to take into his new venture.
Unfortunately in 2018, Damian had to have a double back operation due to a bulging disc. He was out of action for 2 years, his little boy also had health issues but after gaining strength he decided to work closer to home and set up his own property renovation company.
His first job was a project at his Mum’s, replacing ground floor joists and floorboards. He also had to take down a wall and the end result pleased his first customer.
He looked into a government scheme – New Enterprise Allowance, where you get help, advice and some funding setting up your own business. He started doing work for friends and family and advertising on Social Media Platforms to get the word out there, gaining work and building relationships. He was soon signed up to Book A Builder, a site which advertises local tradesmen. From this he gained lots of work.
Although the last 2 years with the Pandemic, work has flowed in because people have had more expendable income having either being furloughed or nowhere open to go out or be able to holiday, they have been spending on their homes and gardens.
It has been difficult to source materials. Timber has gone up in price by 50 percent, Copper is on the rise but Damian has used local suppliers rather than the big chains and found this lots more sustainable and had very few problems. This is great news for the local community all helping each other.
Damian prides himself on his Customer Focus in building relationships and takes pride in his work as he loves what he does. n
