    A great service form a professional team

    Posted 1 day ago

    Mick and his team did an excellent job in repairing and putting tarmac on my drive. They turned up on time and started work immediately and finished the job in good time due to their hard work. Their quote for the work was reasonable and the finished job was just what we wanted.

    Don't count on the after sales service, but excellent workmen

    Posted 12 August

    The team that came to tarmac my drive and lay a patio at the rear of the house were super professional, turned up on time, worked like madmen, kept me informed of options and progress and we were super happy with the end result. However I'm disappointed with the service once they have your money. Two patio slabs cracked and I needed them replacing. It took about a month of leaving messages that either were ignored or replied to with promises that were never kept I had to resort to making social media threats before they finally came and fix things. The fix was good once done

    Response from Steve Collins & Sons Surfacing Limited

    the customer was happy with the patio that was laid. We returned to his property to replace a couple of slabs that had a crack in it which was a manufacturers fault , free of charge and he was happy. We needed to finish of with some resin, as this is expensive we said we would return when we had some left over from another job, and weather permitting. When we asked to action what was agreed, he said he has now completed it himself.

    New Tarmac driveway

    Posted 20 June

    We had a very badly deteriorated concrete drive and were looking to have a new tarmac one laid, Chose Steve Collins due to their reputation and competitive price. Work was booked in and did start a day late due to staff illness but we were informed on the morning nice and early. Following day they were onsite first thing and the team cracked on nicely, were very helpful and professional. The job was completed within the specified time and the standard of workmanship and overall finish is excellent. Would have no trouble recommending them and would use them again if needed without hesitation.

    Widening driveway

    Posted 16 June

    We had our driveway widened and resurfaced in gravel . We had several quotes and found Collins and son to be most competitive and they offered good advice on the best way to achieve the required results. The work was carried out on time and to a very good standard. We are really pleased with the result . Would definitely recommend them .

    New Driveway

    Posted 21 March

    We decided to go with Steve Collins based on personal recommendations. We wanted our drive resurfaced, widened and to create a new block paved area which required a low brick retaining wall. We were happy with the price quoted which seemed reasonable for the work involved. The whole job was carried out extremely efficiently as different specialist teams were used for the various parts of the job. The finished job looks great and just as we imagined it. Thank you!
