The finish is to a high standard, and the attention to detail really shows in the final outcome. Jonathan and his team were professional, polite, and easy to deal with throughout the process. They communicated clearly, kept things tidy, and delivered exactly what was agreed. Would happily recommend to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality patio or driveway work." > Source: Petru (5.0, via TrustATrader) ## Trades Builder ## Services they list _Listed on public sources or the business's own website; check directly that they cover your job before you book:_ - Block Paving - Bonded Aggregate Surfacing - Concrete Driveways - Driveway / Patio Design - Driveway Cleaning / Sealing - Driveway Repair - Gravel / Shingle Driveways - Patios / Paving - Permeable Paving - Polished Concrete - Resin Bond Surfacing - Resin Bound Surfacing ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

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. ## Contact - Phone: 07453 364827 - Website: http://www.diamonddriveways.co.uk --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/diamond-driveways-3 Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source, and reviews are cross-checked across 2 review sources.
