Highlights
"Having had Freddie & Rob do a wonderful job on our driveway, there was only one company to do our patio in the back garden and they did not disappoint. Freddie and Rob always have great ideas about edging and colours. Their attention to detail is second to none and it looks fantastic. We would never use anyone else and would highly recommend them."
"Freddie and Rob were incredible. We wanted to have our driveway tarmacked and Freddie recommended the edging and block paving at the front of the driveway. They worked so hard and when it was finished it way exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail was fantastic. We can not recommend them highly enough."
"Freddie & Rob have made a really excellent job of relaying a large area of block paving on my drive. I have to admit that the area was more than a bit of a mess due to constant wear over many years; most of the old blocks had moved and required far more work than initially planned. However, nothing phased the boys and they worked non stop to produce a drive fit for another 50 years! I can't praise or thank them enough and definitely recommend their extremely high quality work."

Smart checks
Before you hire a landscaper
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour — a vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials' — agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated — protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
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.
