Highlights
“A big thank you from start to finish for Wayne and his team for transforming our block paving/tarmac driveway. We are delighted with our new resin look. Wayne was really thorough with his quote and gave useful suggestions along the way. He kept us informed on a daily basis and it all ran according to plan. His team were also very considerate throughout, as well as tidying up every night. Thanks for doing such a great job and your attention to detail.”
“Wayne and his team did a fantastic job in redesigning our drive. It was the hottest week of the year, but they were extremely punctual, courteous and incredibly hard working. We are so pleased with the end product. We would and have already recommended this firm to other people.”

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.
