Drivestone were fantastic from quote to finish. They kept us in the loop via emails at all times and when they arrived they turned up on time. They are very professional and friendly, work in all weathers and any complications they resolved with customer satisfaction. Couldn’t fault them as they tidied up after each day and on the last day they did a deep site clean leaving our property and neighbouring properties spotless. Attention to detail is great and they are proud of what they do with on site attention to quality. They are very knowledgable and I highly recommend them as I have a great patio along with there 5 year guarantee. Thankyou Drivestone I will be recommending you to my friends👍

Really pleased with our block paved parking space, completed in less than 2 day. Vast improvement on what was there! Great service, speed and quality of work and polite workers too.

Drivestone did a fantastic job laying new autumn gold block paving along with completing a full drop kerb and retarmacing our pavement. Jonathan and his staff were very efficient, professional and we are delighted with the end product. Drivestone are also very competitive price-wise in comparison to other local traders. I can’t recommend Drivestone enough, and would happily use them again in the future.

From our initial phone call and first meeting, Drive Stone were fantastic. Jonathan kept us fully informed at all times, ensuring we were happy with the work at every stage. Jonathan's team did a fantastic job laying our new block paving driveway, they arrived early each morning and cleaned up at the end of each day. They were very efficient, professional and we are very pleased with our new drive. Drive Stone were very competitive on price and I would not hesitate to recommend or use them again.

Jonathan and his team were brilliant from start to finish. After seeing their signs outside some houses in our neighbourhood I gave them a ring. He came back to me within 1 day and came over the following day to quote for the job which was to install a new gravel driveway. He went through everything he was going to do step by step and then emailed a quote to us. After explaining I had been let down for months by another company he offered to do the work the following week..! His team turned up the day he said they would at 8am and worked hard all day until 5pm. They were all very polite and made sure they tidied up before they left. They then arrived the next day to finish the job. As they were finishing the job Michael asked about the borders and what we were going to do. He then left and came back with a big bag of top soil for for free and raked it in for us! Thank you Jonathan and team

From the first contact with Jonathan to the guys leaving the property you couldn't ask for a more professional group of people. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Loved the work so much I have them coming back to patio the back.

Thoroughly recommend this company. They were able to start pretty much straight away. The men on site were great and cleaned up every evening after themselves. Our drive was in a dire state before and now it looks fantastic. Thanks Mr & Mrs Tristram

Timothy Wikeley5.0 / 5

We were delighted with the quality of work throughout- everything was checked thoroughly and there was great attention to detail. The team of workers were polite and diligent. This was a large job, including the block paving of a large driveway and path and erecting a new fence with concrete poles. Everything was checked with me to ensure that we were happy. We are very happy to recommend this company and would use them for any future work. Excellent value for money. Team turned up on time and worked till late, including on a Saturday. They kept everything clean and tidy and were very respectful. The job came in at the estimated price with no ‘unforeseen’ extras. We are very happy with the quality of the work and have received lots of positive comments from neighbours, family and friends.

So happy with our new steps and path. Guys worked so hard on the hottest days of the year all dug out by hand looks better than we ever imagined so much so neighbour's had theirs done as well. 2nd time we have used this company and would recommend them. Thanks Johnathan and your hard working guys .

Before you hire a builder

Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
