New patio
Rated 5/5 by Oonagh C.
I got a new patio recently and used Excel Driveways . Eddie answered his phone each and every time I rang him and always turned up if he said he was calling to the house . This in itself was fantastic as normally I would be chasing people to answer queries or get a start date . The day he was due to install it he arrived with about 7 or 8 workers and had the job done well ahead of schedule . He did a fabulous job to a very high standard and I would highly recommend using this company

Granite Paving
Rated 5/5 by Stewart P
<span class="review-full-text" tabindex="-1">I recently used Excel Driveways to install 320m2 of granite paving at two new build properties. They completed the works to an extremely high standard within the time frame given. After working with several other landscapers over the years I can honestly say I only wish I’d found them before now. I can highly recommend them for any hard landscaping projects and will continue to use on future developments.</span>
driveway and patio
Rated 5/5 by Noel M.
If you are looking for a patio and driveway company that will work hard, stay on target and make you feel like they are working on their own homes, then look no further. These guys are the real deal. Started the job as promised, cleaned up after themselves each day before leaving and kept me in the loop all the way through the project. No hidden costs and kept to the dollars agreed to prior to the start. They were unable to finish by Friday only because I kept adding to the project as they were working. so they came Saturday and Sunday to finish the detail work. My new driveway and patio looks fantastic.

New Patio
Rated 3/5 by Jared K
We found the work satisfactory, behind schedule on completion. Original estimated time was 3 days but it took longer than a week due to some problems with suppliers not delivering right products. Not really our concern and we feel they should of organised this before they started. Overall work is good though and could not fault the workers.
