“Jimmy and his team installed a double block-paved driveway for us and was extremely professional and communicative throughout. From start to finish, he explained all options well for various aesthetic (patterns/borders) and technical details, finishes, interfaces, drainage etc., making sure he understood what and how we wanted our new driveway. Jimmy's team worked quickly, neatly, and tidily and made sure of minimal disruption to our family and neighbours. He was competitive on price - not lowest but definitely worth the premium for peace of mind and high standard of work! Highly recommend!”

Highlights
“We had our driveway extended. Jimmy was very professional, quick to respond (some others took weeks!) finished the work quickly and involved us through the whole process with various options. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend again, we are very happy with the work done.”
“Jimmy and his team did a very good job removing our wooden decking and installing a porcelain tile patio. The job was done quickly and to a high standard. He also installed two planters using the same tiles. Jimmy was good at communicating and updating us at each stage of the process and ensuring the job was done to our satisfaction. They also were careful moving through our narrow corridors and tidying up at the end of the day. Overall, we are happy with their work.”

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
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.
