“I wanted the front, side walkway and back garden block paving pressure washed and sealant applied. I got some quotes from Checkatrade and others and chose Dove External Cleaning, worth saying that Dove wasn't the cheapest but from experience, I've found that some quotes are just too cheap, I usually go with the nearest to the average. Dove owner Dave Moore did a really professional job. Arrived on time, polite and cleared everything away each day. He was professional enough to tape off the front drive to stop anyone from walking on it while the sealant was still wet. Dove gets my ten.”

Highlights
“Dave cleaned and re pointed our back garden which is paved in Indian sandstone, he did a wonderful job restoring it almost as good as new , not easy on paving 10 years old and covered in the accumulated dirt that age suggests, he arrived promptly and worked hard all day,he was priced competitively and so courteous he even helped replace all my pots and furniture in the correct spot , couldn’t find any fault and would highly recommend”
“Really superb service. Extremely pleased with the work done, patio and drive look like they did when first installed. Thank you Dave, you have done an excellent job!”
