  I'm a landscaper just starting up on my own. The guys at Crowborough have been courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. The equipment works and the range is extensive. I'm sure all the team are brilliant but I've mainly dealt with Dave who's been awesome. Thank you very much Great company Matt Leobells Landscaping

  Having hired expensive different equipment two weekends in a row neither of them worked properly The first weekend the hoist kept turning off leaving me stuck while my wife had to keep trying to start it The job took twice as long as it should have done Second weekend I hired a stump grinder that packed in all together leaving me unable finish what I had hired it for Having complained that both pieces of equipment were either not service or in need of repair I was offered no discount or a partial refund Do not hire equipment from this company

  We used Coppards to build a path around our village playing fields, and to improve the drainage. They were not the cheapest quote but provided a higher specification and project managed the overall project so were excellent overall value. They gave us considerable assistance in deciding both the overall and detail specifications, and in helping us to advantageously frame grant and planning applications. They delivered the project on time and on budget, despite having to work around events and sports matches and contending with torrential rain mid-build. They kept the public safe and minimised disruption to the local community whilst maximising access to the facilities. The team who carried out the construction were polite, tidy, hard working and always ready to assist with advice or working round our needs. We are thrilled with the overall result and are grateful to Coppards for their part in realising what had seemed an impossible dream.

  World Class Service Coppard Plant Hire Limited completed the first stage of our driveway upgrade for our new build holiday let, with exceptionally high standards and an ethos of integrity and transparency that I encountered very rarely during our build process. The project was very challenging because the driveway is sinuous, approximately 124 metres long, with a very steep slope and is adjacent to a very large pond, in ancient woodlands. Quin Coppard visited to assess the job and gave my husband, Chris, and I, expert advice to save us costs. This was unusual in my experience because I had been conned by several contractors previously and the construction industry is a minefield of unregulated operators whose sole intention is to over- charge for work with little or shoddy output. The pricing structure with options to reduce expenses was explained in detail. The driveway was regenerated and resurfaced with granite MOT sub base for tar and chippings (to be carried out). Before this was done, the existing tarmac was excavated and the slope was graded to reduce the steepness and strengthened with cement. Two operators, Keith and Matt, were on site promptly every day, even in heavy rain, and worked steadfastly to complete this first stage in the most cost effective way possible. Both men stabilised an area at the bottom of the driveway with membrane and rubble because it was under threat of flooding, to save us increased cost for MOT. This problem was unforeseen and corrected enthusiastically with a desire to ensure that the finished surface was fit for purpose. Keith and Matt were always courteous, cheerful, kind and supportive and exceeded my expectations of the outcome. Quin Coppard ordered the MOT and ensured that it was delivery daily on schedule. Arnold, who was in charge of bookings, Debbie, who was my contact for billing, David, who delivered the machinery, all reflected this high level of professionalism, great cheer, and commitment to get our project completed on time with ample resources. One contractor who had made a site visit to assess the job stated immediately that he could not do it and recommended Coppard Plant Hire Limited. I understand completely the reasons for his recommendation and everyone I chatted with about the project spoke highly about the integrity of the company. I am truly grateful for the works carried out with superb expertise. We are yet to start the second stage of the project – the laying of the tar and chippings – because Quin Coppard will not carry out the works until the weather is suitable. It is good to know that there are still companies that strive to keep their reputations intact, through honesty, integrity, diligence and professionalism and Coppard Plant Hire Limited is one of them. I was tearful when Keith and Matt left after having been on site for four days but they will be back to complete the second stage of the project – tar and chippings – and I hope to post pictures after the project is completed. I have updated this review with some photos of the challenging driveway works that Coppard Plant Hire Limited carried out brilliantly and professionally. All members of their team made the process seamless with kindness and helpfulness. I am forever grateful.

  It is increasingly rare to find organisations where everyone in the team has such a "can-do" attitude on top of being so friendly and knowledgable. From my panic phonecall with Brendan on Wednesday lunchtime, Joby sorting out the admin and Graham and Janusz patiently working with me to mark everything out and dig the footings with Tom threading the enormous mixer lorry into position, by sunset Thursday I had a full set of footings all inspected and good to go. A truely incredible effort all delivered with efficiency and good humour. It is unlikely I will ever be Coppard's biggest customer, that's for sure, but one thing I can guarantee is that I will be one of the loyalest and will be pleased to tell anyone who would care to listen. Thank you again Team Coppard

  We have suffered from a flooding garage for a few years and we were desperate to find a sustainable solution. Coppards designed new routing for a soak away. The installation team were brilliant, very thorough & overcame hurdles leaving the site in great condition.

  A fantastic job from the Coppards team. They did our drive some 27 years ago and it was still ok but looking a bit tired so we invited them to make it bigger and better and what a fab job they did. From survey to digging out and then complete resurfacing the guys worked tirelessly and the results are excellent. Highly recommended and a good price too - thanks Coppards see you in another 25 years or so 👍😁
