FAQs

We frequently get asked a lot of questions. So here are few common ones to help answer any that you may have...

What parts of the UK do you cover?

For our main events we cover London and surrounding counties so that we are within travelling distance from our base if needed. However, we do regularly travel further afield for smaller hire packages such as disco's, fun catering and games hire. We have been known to travel as far as Slovakia for events!

Do you do small events?

Yes. Although our website showcases most of the large events we do, most of our events are on smaller budgets. We treat all of our clients with the same care and all events with the same attention to detail.

How long have you been established?

Party Doctors was established in 2007. Since then Party Doctors has grown rapidly in to the production powerhouse it is today. In January 2019, Insanity Productions Ltd became the parent company of Party Doctors providing a wealth of technical equipment and experience that forms the backbone of our bespoke productions. 

How big are you?

Over the years we have gained a fantastic team of staff allowing us to cope with large scale events. However, we are small enough to care about the important things! Our team includes 6 full-time staff and more than 20 part-time and freelance workers. Our Directors, Dom Clark and Raj Sukul both have degrees in engineering allowing us to bring revolutionary technology and design in to our events. We produce around 50 all-service productions a year and supply to a further 200 through smaller equipment hires and service provisions.

What types of events do you do?

Anything and everything! From private to public, we have experience in all fields and believe our experience, skills and bespoke equipment can be used in almost any situation. We have produced celebrity birthdays, corporate socials, product activations, fairytale weddings and awards ceremonies to name a few. We consider it a privilege to be trusted by our clients to deliver an unforgettable event experience, each and every time. Oh, and we love a challenge - take our over swimming pool dance floors for example!

Do you own all of the equipment you use?

For almost all events, yes! This allows us to be much more creative and bespoke. This means that we can provide the events that people always remember and is why we have a great reputation. Most other companies hire off each other so they have to randomly piece together an event, usually ending up with a disjointed affair. Our basis when the company was originally founded was to supply everything in-house. There are still a few things that we do not offer in-house but can supply at competitive rates due to bulk and long-term hire such as toilets. However, we only use the best suppliers and guarantee the lowest prices for this.

Do you take on work experience or placement students?

Yes, we always find the extra person helpful and find that having young enthusiastic people onsite to be a great boost of energy. Some of our full-time staff were originally work experience placements. We typically like to take on one placement student for each year who, if the right candidate, we hope to employ at the end of the placement after graduation.

How do I book? What are your payment terms?

If you would like to make a booking, simply call the office line and we will send you details via email or in the post. We would then require a 50% deposit of the total fee. The balance is then due before the event. Accounts are available for regular clients.

My venue is asking for a PAT Certificate & Public Liability Insurance, Do you have this?

All of our equipment is PAT tested every year. We currently have public liability insurance cover of £10million. Our Insurance documents are avaiable to clients upon request.

Do I have to book everything through you?

No, not in the slightest! Although we do recommend booking everything through us as you will get a much better deal on like-for -like products and quality as we own everything in-house. You also have one point of contact and only a one-off delivery cost. We are however happy to supply whatever you like on a complete dry hire basis, even if you have had a full quote from us. We regularly work with other companies, many of which hire our bespoke products for their events. We also offer a dry hire service where you can collect items from our warehouse or have them delivered.

  • Wow! This is the second time we have used Party Doctors, the first being for our Son's 18th birthday 3 years ago. They were great then, but now they are absolutely fantastic! We can not recommend them highly enough. This time we hired them for his 21st birthday and they did not disappoint. They're professional, uber efficient an no task is too big or small. They take your vision and make it into exactly what you are hoping for. They take all the stress out of organising what can be a stressful experience. The attention to detail is faultless, all the little personalised touches just make it all complete. Dom and Raj are fantastic, as are their amazing team behind the scenes and up front. We cannot wait to start planning our other sons 18th!! Sophie, 21st Birthday
  • Thank you SO MUCH for putting on such a fab party, everyone is saying it was the party of the year. As I said to you on the phone you have a great team who all care about the outcome, which was evident in the final show piece. You made life so easy for us which meant everything happened without us having to do anything or worry on the night all we had to do was to enjoy spending time with our friends. Debbie Cragg, Joint 50th & 18th Birthday
  • Harry, Just a quick note to say thank you for our festival in the field party. It was a brilliant event and literally every guest has said how fantastic it was and how much they enjoyed themselves. We couldn't have asked for more. I managed to thank some of your colleagues and staff in person last night, but not all of them, so I would be grateful if you could pass on my thanks. They were excellent and a great advertisement for Party Doctors. Harry, you and the team have been super-flexible and full of great ideas in the last 6 or 7 months we have been talking right up to and including on the night; I'm so pleased we chose to go with you and you pulled off such an awesome event.
