    Install new driveway, NG8

    Really happy with the job Joe and the team did fitting a block-pave driveway. I was given good advice from the start without being too pushy and received a competitive quote, and the end result was far better than I imagined it would look, and has really lifted the front of the house. Would be happy to recommend Derby Driveways.

    Build new driveway and garden space

    Very happy with Joe and his team's work! They've done the work to an excellent standard, and it looks exactly like what I had pictured in my mind. When Joe came to quote for the job I was certain I'd ask him to complete it, and I'm very happy that I did. He was knowledgable, passionate about his work and brought some good ideas with him. Work started swiftly, and the job was completed in good time for a very reasonable price. They cleaned up well once they were done and left the place spotless. I would highly recommend Derby Driveways.

    Tarmac drive

    Drive was dug up, hard core down and Tarmac laid in 2 days. Gang of men were polite and very efficient, cleaned up all the rubble and despite all the different vans and transport needed they made sure that neighbours and anyone who needed access were not blocked in.. Have no hesitation in recommending them if you need your drive or any surface replaced or done.

    New driveway and back of property

    Joe was very helpful with suggestions for the back of the property and type of slabs etc on our initial meeting and the job was reasonably priced. Apart from a slight communication issue when the work started the team has done a great job, both front and back. Once the work started it was completed in good time and Joe answered any queries quickly. He completed the job himself and arranged for rubbish to be removed at the end. Just awaiting fence now, which is separate to Joe's quote, and has been measured up tonight. Many thanks to Joe and his team, very pleased with the finished product!

    New resin gravel front shared pathway with edging

    Highly recommended if you want a company to totally waste your time. I can only assume the job wasn't worth their while. Why bother therefore to turn up (having seen the job details) to give a deceptively professional presentation, on the spot quote and approximate two week start date and then disappear without further communication wasting a valuable 5 weeks which could have been allocated to a company with a serious and respectful attitude towards their client. Against my better judgement my neighbour (the work involves shared access) chased the company up only to be told that our contact details had been 'lost' and they would get back to her. Needless to say that didn't happen. This is exactly the kind of behaviour that gives decent tradespeople a bad name. Work is work regardless of the profit margin and a little common courtesy and communication goes a long way. Evidently this company believes otherwise.

    - Driveway - Tarmac or resin driveway - Medium (2 - 3 cars) **Customer description** We would like our drive with tarmac with a blue brick boarder all the way round and drainage by the front door and garage

    Took on joe from derby drive ways to do our tarmac project from the word go his time keeping skills was not great but gave him a chance. Seemed like excuse after excuse with him after finally turning up and completing drive he left the entrance elevation with a massive step and a damaged public pathway with a hole damaged by the lorry he sent guys back with patch tarmac the front elevation and it has just crumbled away. After months of chasing still no joy of our work being rectified. We have contacted council and matter is in there hands. Would not recommend this company to anyone.

    Answer from tradesperson:

    Due to covid 19 we had a very hard time getting materials for deans job this was the delay 😕...as you could imagine as soon as we received materials work began. Dean was delighted with the work ✅😄👍 We had to cut back the foot path due To the incorrect levels before starting the job..Dean was very happy with the work and I explained this before hand that it wasn’t our problem it’s the councils from the get start. Unfortunately we can’t make all the councils footpaths as good as our driveways even tho we’d love to.👍✅
