DeterTech, a pioneer in intruder detection and site security, is proud to announce its involvement with the latest series of DIY SOS: The Big Build Ireland, with the next episode due to air on Sunday 5th October on RTÉ One.
One episode this series focuses on a life-changing project in Killinarden, Tallaght to adapt the home of nine-year-old Cayden and his family into a safe and accessible space that is tailored to their needs. Cayden was born with Arthrogryposis and is fully dependent on a wheelchair.
The DIY SOS team stepped in after learning he was largely confined to the living room and needed to be carried upstairs, to and from his bedroom and to the toilet affecting his and his family’s qualities of life. Seeing so many volunteer tradespeople and suppliers come together to transform the terraced house was a truly special moment and makes for a spectacular reveal.

Members of DeterTech volunteered alongside more than 90 incredible tradespeople and suppliers – from builders and electricians through to landscapers and gardeners. DeterTech also supplied the site security solutions necessary to protect people, tools and materials throughout the build.
Speaking about the project Michael Kennedy, CFO, DeterTech, says: “We pride ourselves on bringing greater peace of mind to people and communities every day. Being there on reveal day to see the reaction is something I’ll never forget. I’d like to pay huge thanks to the entire DIY SOS family for involving us, and to all the volunteers, suppliers and organisers who worked so hard to create a better future for Cayden and his family.”

Helena Ryan, Managing Director Cooga Safety Services Group and Safety Supervisor for DIY SOS: The Big Build Ireland, adds: “One of the builds that features this series had 1,346 people on site, all of whom benefitted from the services DeterTech provides. DeterTech went above and beyond, did phenomenal work and I look forward to collaborating again in the future.”
Orlagh Murphy of indiepics, the production company behind the show, concludes: “Having DeterTech on board has been a game-changer for our site safety and security. It gives our crew, contractors and volunteers the confidence they need to press on and transform the homes of our very deserving recipients.”
