Highlights
“Darren, Nathan and the MGS team were a simple choice for us, because they had already done impressive jobs on the driveways of two of our neighbours. They were excellent throughout, from estimation and planning, through the multistage implementation, to the final follow-up after the job. I highly recommend them.”
“Really happy with the work that was done for us by MGS. Darren gave great advice about the options available and also the preparation needed for our drive. No hard sell which I appreciated. Communication was great throughout and all work was completed within the agreed timescale by Darren himself and Nathan. Everything was kept tidy all the time and put away at night. We are on a path that’s in regular use and we had no complaints from anyone. MGS has a lot of their own vehicles/equipment so we never had any excavation waste/aggregates/materials hanging around on the road/path. Overall we very happy and getting lots of good comments from neighbours etc.”
“From the first meeting with Darren ( he wasn't pushy) to the completion of the job, we were impressed with him and his colleagues professionalism.Darren kept us informed at every stage of the process. We were able to discuss any queries we had and were put at ease with the answers. They were punctual friendly and very tidy They did an amazing job on our drive. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them as you will definitely be pleased with the job they do.”

We are so pleased we chose MGS Driveways to take on our project. MGS are professional, friendly, tidy and very experienced with resin bound surfacing. Their attention to detail was second to none. Darren and his team (special shout out to Matt!) worked hard on our project. We also appreciated the advice Darren gave us as work progressed. End result, our dream driveway, just wish we had done this sooner! Big thanks again to Darren and his team.

Darren and his team were professional from the start. Their communication was brilliant, they kept us informed throughout. They worked hard and the attention to detail was excellent. They have done a fantastic job and we would definitely recommend for both resin driveways and laying patios.

We hired MGS Driveways for our resin drive. From start to finish, we was extremely impressed with their professionalism and skill. Darren and his team arrived on time, provided a clear and detailed quote, and completed the job to a very high standard. The work area was kept clean and tidy throughout the process, and I was consistently kept informed of the progress. The final result is exactly what we had hoped for, and the quality of the work is excellent. We would not hesitate to recommend Darren and his team.

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.
