They provided options to refresh my garden path from loose pebbles to brickwork, fitting in with the rest of the patio. Work was done quickly, on time and tidy. Would use them again and recommend them.
reasonable quote given promptly. work done on days agreed. time will tell, of course, but the firm seem to have done a thorough job in washing; sanding and sealing the drive. i'm a satisfied customer

From start to finish incredible. 3 day turn around from a drive that was completely out of use and not safe to a gorgeous smooth driveway. No hassle , extremely tidy and a very good team of hard working men.
Simply fantastic from start to finish. Very polite team of guys, who transformed our half drive-half garden front, into a fully paved drive. Their quote was realistic and they managed to fit us in really quickly. The job was done in 2 days and they never stopped working. Their workmanship is to a very high standard and all our requirements were incorporated. We would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a new drive or patio area. We would welcome them back for future projects.
Really pleased with our new driveway. Price was fair and the team were really reliable and punctual
A job well done, really pleased with how he has transformed our driveway. The company encountered a problem removing a tree as the roots were wrapped around a gas pipe but they managed to sort the problem out quickly, efficiently and professionally. Will definitely use them again. Well done.
We've had our driveway and patio transformed by Gerry and his team. They're friendly, polite and punctual. The price was very reasonable, it's been perfect from start to finish. We would use them again and would highly recommend. Thank you
From start to finish nothing but professional. Came to give me a quote on time and gave me a fair price. Got on with the job and drive was done in 2 days. So happy with it and great people you can trust. I'll use them again in future.

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.
