What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Groundworks and paving form the backbone of the work described by customers of this Reading-based firm, whose reviews repeatedly highlight trenching, cable laying, site levelling, shed base replacement, curved brickwork garden walls and sandstone paving. More than one customer describes Steve as polite, punctual and tidy, with one noting that he attended at short notice to repair a plastic pipe. A recurring theme is the care taken over the finish: block work described as a work of art, a front garden and driveway transformed to the client's specification, and a large gravel area replaced with tiles alongside a new foundation.

Reviewers mention that the team helped develop ideas when the brief was unclear and worked patiently over an 18-month project covering 19 plots that still looked new on completion. Another point that comes up often is that work was completed as agreed and progressed smoothly from start to finish, with the workforce described as friendly and hardworking. One customer notes the quote was not the lowest received but considered the result worth it, and several mention finding the firm through a friend or neighbour's recommendation. The detail-oriented approach and willingness to return for further work close the accounts.

Steve and his team were recommended to me by a friend and neighbour, and needless to say, they absolutely did not disappoint! They were very friendly and patient, and incredibly hardworking and detail-oriented. I did not have a very clear vision of what I wanted, and they helped me brainstorm ideas and execute them to create my dream backyard. They removed a lot of gravel and replaced them with beautiful tiles, and also laid a foundation for a future garden home. It's now much more accessible and convenient to use, very spacious and bright. I am very grateful and I recommend them without hesitation!

Extremely competent company 📲. Use with confidence . Steve was a pleasure to deal with - this was ongoing work over 18 months . 19 plots completed in this time and they still look brand new . I must say the block work ( which is due to be rendered ) is a work of art . I’m glad we found your company
