    Resurface of private road in Rotherfield

    John and his team resurfaced our residential private road. He met the residents and discussed the quoted options with us explaining what the work would involve and discussing the various points of detail (eg manhole covers, areas around drive joins etc). Very professional and courteous throughout. Standard of workmanship was excellent. Price for works was reasonable.

    Bonded Aggregate Surfacing

    Posted 27 July

    Great driveway remodelling and surfacing.

    This is the second time we’ve used New Look, John and his team provided excellent service from start to finish. They did a great job remodelling and enlarging our driveway before tarmacking the surface. They were professional, hardworking and paid great attention to detail. We’re really pleased with the finished job and would highly recommend.

    Bonded Aggregate Surfacing

    Posted 05 December 2025

    Highly recommended - 5 stars!

    John and his team installed a fantastic gravel bound surface on our very large driveway. It was a 4 day job and they had to work around some inclement weather but they turned up, on time and as arranged, each day. They also installed a large cobbled area between our gates which was beautifully laid and pointed. They all worked so hard on the preparation to make sure the surface was in the best condition prior to the final surface going down. John was a pleasure to deal with - he has many years of experience and advised and guided us through the many questions that we had! Highly recommended.
