Customer reviews for this trader
Graham and Jack removed an old front patio and steps and re-laid new sandstone. They came earlier than planned and completed the job within the week. They were a joy to have around, always prepared to explain what they were doing and making expert suggestions. We have had a lot of landscaping done over the years but they are head and shoulders above the rest. I recommend them without hesitation.
I gave Graham a very basic idea of what I wanted and he did all the rest. I have ended up with a fabulous patio transformation. Graham and Jack worked tirelessly despite the truly awful weather and have given me a fantastic space to relax in or have friends round to entertain. The products they use are amazing and I could not have asked for more. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
Graham and Jack completed the work within the time requested and very efficiently. Our neighbour was impressed and asked for their phone number!
This is the second time I have used MB Landscaping and Paving and have been extremely pleased with their work each time. Graham has been brilliant coming up with design ideas for my patio and the garden work and artificial grass they laid have been great. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
Graham visited me promptly after my enquiry. He discussed the job in detail and gave me a competitive quote, and that was the final price. Graham and Jack were punctual, and they worked very hard. The weather caused some problems, but they discussed every thing with me, and dealt with issues as they arose. They were not prepared to compromise the high standard of their work just to finish the job quickly and move on. I was delighted with the finished patio, and when they finished everything was left completely clean and tidy. What struck me most about Graham and Jack was that they were craftsmen who used their experience to work with me to produce a patio that was right for me and that they could feel proud of. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Graham did an excellent job at a very fair price. He gave great advice when he came to check out the job and fitted the job in sooner than expected, thanks to a cancellation completing the work one day quicker than expected too.
I recently had my drive block-paved by MB Landscaping and Paving and have no hesitation in recommending them. Graham and his team of Tom, Jack and Ollie were a pleasure to have around and deserve high praise for their excellent work. They were professional, hard working and always consulted me on details as the work progressed. I am so pleased to have found them through the Trusted Trader scheme. First class!
Faultless, is the only way to describe the work done by Graham and his team. They replaced a very tired and dilapidated front drive and wall, matching the wall to the 1904 house perfectly and they also designed a new set of steps to the house which showcases the entrance beautifully as well as being far more practical than the precipitous steps they replace. The attention to detail is second to none with sets edging the tarmac drive perfectly around drains and gutters. The team are a professional, painstaking and thoughtful group who are meticulous in their preparation and clearing up. I just wish we had had the work done years ago!
Wow! What a transformation, from a water logged mish mash garden to a beautiful paved design with artificial grass. Tom and Ollie are brilliant, high praise and well deserved. The paving edging and bigger step were extra ideas and look great, the drain pipe works well, no more floods! We even recycled my old slabs to make a better patio at the top of my yard, how Tom got that hard concrete up I'll never know. Fully recommend this Company, professional work, lots of extra ideas, problem solving at great price. Thank you lads!
Wow! What a transformation, my garden went from a flooded mish mash arrangement to a beautiful paved area with artificial grass, best of all a drain has now been added so no more water logging. Tom and Ollie are absolutely brilliant, high praise and these lads well deserve it. They added extra touches with stone edging, which really makes the paving stand out and the steps area is much better than we imagined. They even recycled the old slabs to use at the top area of my house. Still cant believe Tom managed to smash through that awful rock solid concrete. Fully recommend this Company, do a professional job, great ideas, solve problem areas and at great price. Thanks guys!
Graham's team - Tom, Ryan, Jack and Ollie - did a wonderful job of transforming our back garden, which was no mean feat, and we are absolutely delighted with the end result. When Graham initially came to see us, he made a couple of alternative suggestions to keep the cost within our budget, and they worked really well. The team were a pleasure to have working for us. They were very respectful and tidy workers and obviously took pride in their work. We would certainly recommend them and are hoping to get Graham and the team back soon to transform our driveway!!!
M.B. Landscaping provided a first class service. Graham listened carefully to my requirements and produced a plan for a complete transformation of my outside space: front, back and sides of my house. He worked with me as the work progressed to accommodate changes to the original design which included the addition of a potting shed and alterations to pathways. My finished garden, which included block paving and tarmacking, was completed to an exceptionally high standard with an impressive attention to detail. Graham and his team are organised, highly skilled, punctual, polite, reliable and take great pride and care in their work. I am delighted with my garden. Thank you.
Graham and the team were excellent, from the initial assessment and advice by Graham through to the excellent standard of work by the team in turning my slabbed area into a lovely garden. Thank you very much.
Graham and his team did some work for us. Two tiered garden, replaced decking with paved area, built supporting walls and installed new fence posts and panels. Professional work carried out throughout, happy with results of work undertaken. Work completed to a high standard as specified in our requirements.
Graham and his team were brilliant from start to finish. Expert advice from the beginning by Graham offering advice and solution's to our patio requirements. His team involved in the installation were great, all of them were knowledgeable of the Bradstone product we had chosen making sure they executed the install perfectly. I would definitely recommend Graham and his team, a job well done.
I have no hesitation in recommending Graham and his team, they have just fitted planters, installed artificial grass and did some general tidying up for me. At the initial meeting Graham discussed my requirements and came up with some really helpful suggestions. The team were really efficient and professional. I am really happy with the completed job.
I cannot recommend highly enough M B Landscaping and Paving. I had planters made, drainage installed, artificial grass put down and some general tidying up done. Graham discussed with me what my requirements were and came up with very helpful suggestions. His team were extremely professional and tidied up at end of each day. I am very happy with the completed job. A very reliable and trustworthy company.
Graham and his team have recently completed a job to replace our block paved drive, erect a new fence and create a raised bed in our front garden. All the work has been completed to a very high standard and we could not be happier with the results. The team are really easy to get on with and we were kept informed at every stage of the three week project. We have already recommended them to our neighbours and would not hesitate in asking them back to complete further work.
Graham and his team, Tom, Gary and Ollie did a fantastic job of creating our new patio area and building a new driveway and side path. They were all very polite hard working and professional. The finished job looks superb and really finishes off our property. The whole process from start to finish was easy and we were kept informed at every stage of the project. The finish is superb and they kept everything clean and tidy. My wife and I would definitely recommend using MB Landscaping and Paving for any Driveway, Patio or Landscaping project that you might be considering. We are extremely pleased with the finished result and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you to Graham and the team!, excellent work.
Superb! Sums it up in one word. I knew as soon as I first met Graham that he was a person that I could work with, he took a lot of time to get all of my requirements written down and offered plenty of constructive advice on landscaping issues that I did not fully understand. There was a lot of work on my project with mixed substrates to lay and a previous project to link up to; the quote that Graham sent to me on email was fully itemised, very professional I thought, and extremely competitive, in fact I was delighted as soon as I read it. When it came to actually undertaking the project the high level of professionalism was continued. All of the team were extremely courteous and extremely tidy, the best that we have ever had at our house. A special mention to Tom, Jack, Ryan and Ollie for their hard work. Use this company, they are a role model for what a trusted trader should be, thank you everyone at M B Landscaping for making our project such a great success.
Graham was very friendly, his team were very tidy & professional, always cleaned up at the end of each day. Job completed in good time and we are really pleased with the results. Only criticism is slow with email replies.
The work that Graham and his team produced was to the highest standard, nothing was too much trouble and they were always courteous and left everywhere tidy at the end of each day. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending MB Landscaping to anyone.
Graham and his team were a pleasure to be with, very professional and nothing was to much trouble, they all work to a very high standard, wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company.
M.B. Landscaping and Paving were excellent. They arrived on time and finished within the timescales. Tidy and polite staff. Graham contacted me when there were any problems and was able to offer solutions. He also brought some good ideas to the design to make my proposal better. I would have not hesitation in recommending them to anyone.
Graham and his team were excellent and helped my elderly parents when their fence blew down in a recent storm. Graham and his team, promptly came and gave a quote and then followed up by replacing the broken fencing the next day. Excellent workmanship, excellent customer service, excellent job. No hesitation in recommending MB Landscaping and Paving. Thank you Graham and the lads!
Have just had a new driveway completed and cannot recommend Graham and his team highly enough, they are all friendly, professional and kept us updated throughout the whole process. The work is exactly what we talked about at the planning stage and Graham was very helpful and knowledgeable in getting a design together. All the work was carried out to a high standard and the driveway looks amazing. Thankyou for making it such an easy process from start to finish!
This is the second time in under 6 months I've used MB and I couldn't be happier. Right from the initial quote I was confident I was getting the same excellent service as last time. They were communicative, friendly, considerate, sorted out the grey areas where I hadn't specifically said what I wanted, responded promptly to any queries and took any input on board, turned up a month early due to a cancellation. Didn't get any other quotes this time, didn't want anyone else doing the work. Cant recommend them highly enough.
We are really pleased we chose M B Landscaping to lay our new patio. From the first contact via email, to assessing the job, to advising us on our best options, to executing the plan on time and on budget - they were thoroughly professional and a pleasure to work with. I would have no hesitation recommending this business for your landscaping project.
Graham and his team installed a Bradstone patio to replace an old area of decking in the back garden. From initial contact to the completion of the works Graham kept in touch, quoted a fair price for the work and offered advice on the project. He kept to agreed dates and times for the work, kept us fully informed of what would be done and his team were punctual, diligent and cheerful throughout the works, despite some awful wet weather. On completion of the job Graham returned to inspect the works and was very happy to undertake any changes and finishing touches as required. As a Bradstone assured trader MB landscaping also provide a 5 year guarantee for the works and Bradstone a 10 year guarantee on the materials. I would highly recommend MB landscaping for a quality job and a professional approach.
M.B. Landscaping and Paving were very professional, took care not to damage surrounding plants. The craftsmen were excellent, used good quality materials, were very polite and happy to discuss our requirements offering helpful tips, and they cleaned up afterwards. We will use M.B Landscaping and Paving again in the future, confident we'll receive high standard work at a reasonable price.
Very professional and friendly staff. Kept me informed all the way through the job what they were doing and when there was an option this was discussed before proceeding.
This company have done an excellent job laying a quadrant shaped patio. Graham and all of the workmen were polite,conscientious and knowledgeable. I will definitely be using them again for any work I want doing in the future.
I cannot adequately express how happy I am with my new block paving. Its taken years to get to this point and my heart sank every time I tried to get companies to quote and then I got in touch with Graham via Trusted Traders. He was prompt, polite, helpful and informative during the quote and came back when I'd thought of some questions which he dealt with in the same manner. They turned up when they said, which was communicated in advance thanks Viv, 8am each day, worked, communicated and were considerate and thoughtful to both us and our surrounding neighbours. They finished the job, exactly as discussed, better if anything and left behind as good a piece of work as anyone could hope for. The invoice turned up and was for exactly the amount expected, payment in full on completion. Other trades take note: This is how businesses should treat their customers. Cannot express how highly I think of this experience and as soon as I can afford it I'm having the rest of the driveway replaced.
Graham and his colleagues did a fantastic job resurfacing my driveway, very little mess left. A good job done in 2 days, highly recommended company.
An excellent company to deal with - friendly, efficient, professional, good price and did a marvellous job ripping up my dated wood decking and laying a beautiful stone patio. Would gladly recommend this company to anybody.
Graham was known to us because one of our sons recommended him. Therefore in 2017 the team built new steps and a patio to the rear of the house. Their work and the finished result were outstanding. In May, 2019 we had no hesitation in asking Graham to carry out extensive resurfacing work at the front of the house. The team worked efficiently throughout and the end result is first class and admired by many passers by, some of whom have approached Graham to carry out work for them. The men always left the site neat and tidy and were helpful throughout. A very trusted trader who I can highly recommend.
Graham and the team did a fabulous job, they consulted us every step of the way. The patio has transformed our garden. We don't usually do reviews but we felt on this occasion we should. We can highly recommend them.
Highly recommend - great service from start to finish. Everything was thoroughly explained and detailed - even when we tweaked what we wanted a little!!
Graham and his team did a great job in my garden, extending the patio and path and putting in a shed base. They worked quickly and the results are great! The team were very tidy and left the garden in a good state each evening. I'm very pleased with the final result!
Graham and his Team have transformed our Garden. It is now an elegant retreat and practical as well. It was a retirement treat for us both and we are so pleased we have had such an excellent result. We will be using it every day rain or shine. The Team were punctual and liaised with us every step of the way. We don't usually do Reviews but on this occasion we really wanted too. We could highly recommend this company.
Graham and his team have done a fantastic job of our garden and cannot thank them enough for the transformation. The team were punctual and professional throughout the job, and cleaned and tidied up and the end of each day. The team had great knowledge of all gardening aspects which gave us great confidence in there work. I would highly recommend Graham and the team for any garden work.
Many thanks to Graham, Viv, Richard, Luke, Tom and the rest of the team for transforming our front garden into a driveway in June 2019. Communication was great, the quality of work high and everyone working on site very respectful of keeping the site, front footpath and our house clean. I would not hesitate to recommend MB Landscaping and would be happy to contact Graham for any future work.
An excellent job. The team worked very well together and consulted us at every stage to be sure we were happy with the result. They went above and beyond the brief. We would thoroughly recommend them. The result is much admired by all.
