  • Driveway replacement and new patio

    10Verified Review

    I engaged Caine to replace my resin driveway for Brett block paving and to install a new patio. Caine and his team did a fantastic job! The driveway looks great and we've had no issues with water pooling in the recent rain. The patio and path leading to it is also perfect. Caine implemented some good ideas regarding the landscaping/french drains around the driveway and patio. I'd have no hesitation in recommending him.

  • Driveway aco grills and re-levelling of block paving.

    10Verified Review

    11 years after 1st Choice Driveways installed a large block paved driveway I have had them back to upgrade aco drains and relevel a section that has had a lot of traffic. All completed in half a day. My first choice for driveways and associated groundwork.

  • Driveway and garden landscape

    10Verified Review

    Very happy with both the driveway and reconstructed garden. The work was carried out with professionalism on time with little or no disruption to our daily lives. All the workers involved were highly skilled, kind and considerate. They also left the site tidy and clean each day. I would highly recommend them as reliable and professional, having pride in their work.
