Driveway Installation
John was so professional and friendly and came with great ideas. His team arrived at 7.30am every morning. They were so professional and took great pride in their work. Which is amazing. At the end of each day they cleaned up and you wouldn’t know there was anyone here. I would have no hesitation in recommending John and his team as they were 💯 percent fantastic workers More...

John and his team completed our driveway and sidelane with a fabulous design of tarmac surrounded by a Silver Granite border and Silver Granite doorstep. They also rebuilt 2 of the walls that were damaged. John called out to see the driveway within a day of contacting me where we discussed the design and quote, which was fair for the work involved. The team all arrived when he said they would and the project was completed on time. John and the lads are a great team, very professional and nothing was a problem to any of them. I would highly recommend Hardbase Driveways & Patios. Thanks John and team, I am very happy with our new driveway. More...

When your doing your review over a year later, and you can still say excellent work, that's a good review!!!
John's quote was not the cheapest I got, but being in construction years ago, I knew what was required of my water logged back garden, to look good with artifical grass.
I agreed with what he was saying was needed, and decided to go with his company. I am writing this review over a year later as I lost his leaflet and have just found it. The team did brilliant preparation work, were clean and professional, but the quality of the grass he put down is amazing. Two tone so looks like real green grass. I just Hoover it now and again and it always looks brand new. There is no more water logged back garden. I would highly recommend him. He kept me informed as the job was getting done, and I found him and his team professional and courteous. With the amount of cowboys going around today, it was great to get a company that does the job and the job lasts.

My job is starting in a few days, but John called out today again to check that the digger would fit through a very narrow side entrance.
With precision driving and less than half an inch to manouver, he sucessfully got the digger in. F1 are missing out.
