Daniel Sinclair

I am a qualified HSE commercial diver with over 10 years of experience in the marine and construction sectors. Throughout my career, I have been involved in a wide range of projects, from subsurface installations with utility companies to inspections and maintenance for local authorities and private households. My experience has led me to take on lead diver and supervisory roles for various commercial diving contractors.

In addition to my professional work, I regularly undertake private projects, ranging from small plumbing jobs to larger renovations on commercial premises, often leading a small team. Through my diverse roles as a commercial diver, I have developed a comprehensive set of practical skills in challenging environments. My private work has also enhanced my expertise in customer relations and on-the-spot problem-solving.
