Dolman Audio Visual was formed in 1980 by myself,
Peter Dolman. I served my apprenticeship as a service engineer
with a small independent retailer and later on in my career saw
life as a technician with one of the largest UK service organisations.
In between these contrasting jobs, I had the opportunity to work
as a Television Development Engineer with a leading British set
manufacturer. This career move rewarded me with a valuable appreciation
of receiver design and manufacture. During the past 35 years I
have achieved professional engineering status, received the Licentiateship
of the City an Guilds and have gained a formal qualification in
Further Education Teaching. I have also worked on a freelance
basis for colleges and examination boards in the capacity of examiner
and verifying assessor, as well as a technical author.
I make mention of these past events purely to
serve as a means of indicating one of the reasons why I genuinely
believe that we offer a standard of technical ability (and adaptability)
which is not commonplace in the field of AV servicing. It is the
application of the joint experience of our team members which
has enabled us to assemble a unique knowledge base from which
to draw. This provides us with major advantages in that we are
able to offer a competent, comprehensive and effective fault finding
and repair service, covering a wide range of diverse products.
We set up our small company here in rural Wiltshire
to provide the kind of audio visual product repair that I believe
every owner deserves. With our conscientious team we offer an
affordable high standard of service, based on years of experience
in our chosen field and a breadth of experience in the industry
which I believe places us in a unique position to live up to our
ideals.
As we have a strong grounding in engineering principles,
we achieve a very high success rate in the repair of the AV products
we handle, even those for which there is limited technical information
(for example when the manufacturer has ceased to trade, the unit
is old, or where it was not adequately supported by the importer).
Also, by establishing direct access to spares with major manufacturers
and distributors we can often source even those more difficult
to locate parts, should your repair require it. Wherever possible,
the original manufacturers' spares will be employed. However,
if these are unavailable and substitution becomes necessary, we
base our decisions on sound technical judgment, ensuring the sourcing
of components which equal, or in many cases, exceed the original
specification!
Here at Dolman AV - over the years - we have serviced and repaired
many well known manufacturers products which incude Aiwa, JVC, Sony, Toshiba
Yamaha and many others
