    Flagging rear garden

    Gareth and his team were friendly and professional. Explained every detail of the job and kept me informed along the way. This was the second time I'd used GDR and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Very satisfied customer!

    Garden Flagging

    Posted 24 December 2024

    The Team at GDR Driveways have done a fantastic job at our house. They have been polite, effective and efficient, whilst carrying out the work for ourselves. The finished item is fabulous, with over 100 old flags, block paving and other eye sores removed, they have laid nearly 200 new flags in the bad weather of December. Great Work, fantastic project

    Garden transformation

    Posted 27 November 2024

    Gareth and the team have just finished our garden transformation and we are extremely pleased with all the work done to the highest quality. Despite changing weather and a number of surprises the garden turned up work was completed on time and within reasonable budget. Would highly recommend anyone looking to hire Gareth to not delay you won't be disappointed

    Garden Makeover

    Posted 26 September 2024

    I can’t recommend GDR Driveways enough, Gareth and his team did a fantastic job turning my back garden from a jungle swamp into an amazing grandchildren and dog friendly oasis that doesn’t flood every time it forecasts rain. I can’t praise or thank Gareth and crew enough, reliable, professional and friendly, they bent over backwards to help anyway they could with any little request I asked of them.
