“We commissioned Firmstone to create a completely new driveway and steps which was a very awkward shape, lots of digging out and preparation was required. John planned all the work and he and his team completed the project in a very professional and efficient manner, we are very happy with the end result, Block Paving looks great, we would not hesitate to use Firmstone again and highly recommend John and his team at Firmstone for any similar project.”

Highlights
“Great company to deal with - workers were very efficient and great lads completed our pathway and garden in 3 days - highly reccomend”
“We took on Firmstone Driveways and Patios to replace a crazy paved driveway with a resin bound surface and to replace a step in front of the door. Like a jigsaw puzzle, all the various aspects of the job from removing the old and replacing with the new slipped into place and the job was left spotless afterwards. Even had passers by commenting on the work. Well done John and crew.”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
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.
