    Patio and sleepers, flower beds

    Posted 14 April

    We had been to 3 other contractors that were not very interested in my ideas for a new patio. I looked Ned and his company up on Checkatrade Ned was very quick to respond back. He came into our back garden enthusiastic and with lots of ideas, he stayed for a fair while Talking to myself and my partner about our ideas what we would like. He came back with a quote whilst he was still with us in our garden we found the whole experience with them very professional. They worked like Trojans they would work until later hours than normal to get jobs finished. They did exactly what we asked for.

    Tarmac side driveway

    Posted 11 December 2024

    Ned answered my request for a quote promptly, and he came to visit soon after to provide me with a quote. I found Ned to be courteous and professional, and I liked his approach to the job. The job was to excavate a worn side yard, lay edging paving, lay new sub-base, compact, and finish with tarmac, along with some detail work around gullies. Ned's team were fast and efficient. Care was taken during the work, which only took 3 days in total. Waste was removed the same day that it was dug. The finished project is excellent, and I would recommend W&H Driveways to anyone needing a driveway.

    Driveway and Patio

    Posted 11 October 2024

    We have recently had a new gravel driveway and our patio enlarged and replaced. I could not be more delighted with the work carried out by Ned Connors and his team from W and H Drive and Design. What was unusual was we responded to a leaflet through the doorway and only planned to do the driveway. However when Ned arrived to quote for the drive, I asked him to look at the patio and suggest options. He did and both estimates were very reasonable but I wanted to check the quality of his work and was signposted to several local neighbours. They all spoke very highly of the company and work.

    Resin driveway and block paving for driveway

    Posted 03 February 2024

    Ned and his team did an amazing job of resin and block paving drive. The standard of build quality was A1. Received a digital invoice with full itemisation of details works to be completed. The skill and experience of his team was evidence. Ned was open to making any changes during the build phase. His team left the site spot and completed the job on time and budget. No hesitation in recommending W&H Drive and Design to friends and family
