  I would 110% recommend Flowers. I have been wanting my drive done for a while now and got quotes from a few different companies before I came across Flowers. I was recommended Flowers by a friend and once I had a look at their portfolio I decided to call them around for a quote. John came round to quote me for the work on the driveway and we agreed on a price. He seemed genuine and said to trust him and the process. (I'm a pretty good judge of character and went with my instinct). A week later the work began, the workers were working very hard from early morning till late afternoon, with no slacking just cracking on with what needed to be done. Whilst having the work done I was conscious about disturbing the neighbours but honestly, they didn't disrupt them the slightest. The whole team was wonderful, from Michelle in the office being prompt with responses and the friendly builders. The work was carried out to a high standard, I wish I had taken some before photographs. Pros: * Builders were always on time * They listened to what I wanted and actioned * Friendly * Work was at a professional standard * Mindful of neighbours and cause minimal to no disruption * Tidy up as they go along * They're patient and keep you informed as they go along * They go above and beyond and add a little extras too Cons: * Honestly I cannot fault them as they were ace from start to finish John is a man of principle and word, he said to trust him and he delivered his promise. I would highly recommend going with John and his team at Flowers if you're looking for a professional job and excellent customer service. Thank you to the wonderful team John, Michelle, Lloyd, Mark, Ash, Adam, Ginger, Louis. (Forgive me cannot remember all their names) for all your hardwork. Wishing you all the very best.

  Flowers recently transformed my moms back garden. They removed trees and knocked down an old brick shed and replaced it with a patio and new fence/back gate. She was over the moon with the outcome. It’s transformed her garden space ready for the summer. The work was of a high standard, the workers are very respectful and work tirelessly, making minimal mess. The owner John oversaw the job from start to finish and we could not be happier. I fully recommend Flowers for all your driveways, patios, tree work. 10/10 Services: Tree landscaping, Driveway or walkway paving

  Flowers gave us a quick quote for replacement patio and lawn, that fell into the middle of other quotes that we’d been given. Their lead time was shorter so we went with them. Then we had a text cancelling the due start date. This date also came and went. We threatened to cancel when we heard no more from them and suddenly it was all systems go. The owner turned up just once on day one. The first crew (sub contracted) were great and cleared the garden in preparation for the next crew who were to lay the new patio and returf the lawn. The second crew laid the patio reasonably well although did not lay the stones on a solid sand bed as we’d hoped. One of them offered to re-lay 6 concrete slabs that we’d kept from the base of our previous shed - a job that took minutes and that I had been prepared to do. It seemed kind of him to offer and I accepted gratefully. We paid him £30 cash for his doing this and straightening up a couple of sunken bricks in the driveway. So it was a shock when, after the job was completed, his boss attempted to charge us an extra £650 for this “extra” work and for the supply of patio bricks to retain the lawn. This was not a new addition, the bricks had been a necessary part of the “design” to keep the grass from collapsing onto the patio. We refused to pay the extra charge. The lawn is extremely poor. The soil they laid for it is stony, lumpy and uneven. Despite daily watering, there are bald patches and after months of leaving it to take root, the mower struggled with the uneven ground beneath the grass. There was no “landscaping” whatsoever. The turf was plonked down and patched up with no shaping around the flowerbeds. Very, very disappointing. Nor do we feel that we can go back to get these matters put right as they have tried to charge us this extra £650 on top of their already quite pricey fee. The owner never came back to check we were happy nor to approve and sign off on the work completed. I would never recommend this company, which is a shame as some of his team were very good. We now are looking for someone who can repair the lawn and complete the edging of the flowerbeds. Very disappointing.

  Had all my back garden paved, it was a tricky job as all my garden was different levels. Flowers workers all arrived on time everyday, all polite & respectful. Work finished to a very high standard, all rubbish removed & site fully cleared, could not fault the service in anyway. Price was over a thousand pounds less than the other quotes we had too 😉 Would highly recommend Flowers to anyone, I am going to have my front garden done by them now too!!!

  I’ve just had my drive block paved by the Flowers crew and they have been great, the drive looks good, they cleared all rubbish up and made everything look great and it was a very reasonable price so a happy customer all round.

  A total waste of time didn't even pick up the phone. I think the reviews left are fake.

  A massive thank you to flowers for an exceptional job completing these driveways. They are seriously good at what they do and if you are looking for a professional finish at a more than fair price, then for me it's a simple choice! Not only was they able to carry out an amazing job they was unbeatable on price. All the work was carried out with covid in mind and I felt very comfortable while they carried out the work due to them taking extra care to maintain social distancing etc. Jon was also brilliant about the other half deciding that she wanted some flower beds on the one side halfway through the job!. Thanks to Jon and all the lads
