Decorative Concrete Specialists (DCS)

We’ve finally finished our renovation — and the driveway was the final piece of the puzzle! 🏡✨ We wanted to give a huge shout out to everyone at DCS for helping us finish things off on such a high. Jackie and Chris have been brilliant to deal with throughout — helpful, patient and always on hand when we’ve needed them. And a special mention has to go to Barry and his team. Their attention to detail has been incredible and the standard of their work genuinely impeccable. We’re absolutely thrilled with the driveway and couldn’t have asked for a better finish to the house. Would wholeheartedly recommend DCS to anyone considering having their driveway done. 👏

We had our patio installed in a Dove Grey Porcelain Slab style after having our driveway installed in 2024. It is impossible to overstate how professional this team are - from the first call with Jackie, the survey with Chris, the design meeting with Barry through to the installation by Ryan's amazing Team of cheerful, polite chaps and the final seal completed by Steve. The Team thoroughly cleaned up after themselves each and every day - all of the neighbours were very impressed with some of them having their cars cleaned! Communication throughout was spot on with Jackie explaining every step of the way. We would highly recommend DCS - in fact, we do recommend them to everyone we meet! Thank you so much.

To say we are delighted with our drive and patio that Decorative Concrete Specialists (DCS) have transformed for us, is an understatement. What an incredible team, from our enquiry with Chris, liaising with Jackie, discussing designs and options with Barry, to Ryan, Steve Marc, Tyler, Mason & Damien completing the works have been a great example of exceptional customer service and exceptional work. A huge thank you to each and everyone who have transformed our drive and patio. Such a hard working and courteous team. We would highly recommend Decorative Concrete Specialists (DCS) and thank you for such a fabulous transformation. With many thanks Sue & Mike Ward, Cricklade

I have recently had the pleasure of DCS Ltd to clear & landscape my back garden. The company laid my double front drive around 15 years ago and I have been so happy with it. So when undertaking this mammoth job I immediately thought of this company. I could not have been happier with my choice. Every person within this company are professional knowledgable helpful friendly approachable from the directors Barry Ryan & Chris, Jackie the secretary and skilled workmen, Steve Ren Damo Tyler & Mason. With both Barry & Ryan also undertaking the work themselves. The team have brought my vision to life which was quickly drawn on a scrappy bit of paper the night before the design visit. They followed all my ideas and my garden has turned out brilliantly. I wanted my garden to be more manageable for me & a safe place for my grandchildren to play in. Everyone worked so hard even through rain showers. I thank each one of them for their part in my successful project. My friends, family & neighbours now have garden envy. My neighbour even said she missed the lads as they are such a nice bunch of fellas. Now the work starts for me, painting the new fences & gate plus one existing side planting & ordering a summerhouse for far patio. I would not hesitate to recommend this company, you would be in safe hands. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A completely professional service from beginning to end. Brilliant digital design and consultancy. High quality workmanship, from a team with a great work ethos, resolving all problems to achieve a great result. Considerate, polite and courteous. Excellent job for a fair price.

I honestly will say it is rare that i want to review a company because of the quality of the work being so good. I had seen DCS do a driveway over the road from my house and heard from the neighbours that they had come bk out after the work was done to inspect the finish, one of the directors (Barry) was not happy with it so rather than just fob it off or overlook it Barry insisted they rip the entire thing out and start again. Yes, it might have been an inconvenience to the home owners but i would rather use a company that take pride in their work than not. So i thought it would give them a try, i had already had a few quotes but i could tell they were trying to force me to take block paving, telling me my ground wouldn't suit printed concrete?? That didn't sound true to me, DCS confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the ground and they could do what i was looking for, this then expanded to the side of my house and also getting my entire patio redone and an area for my firepit. I met Chris who came out and did a detailed plan for the area needing covering and gave me the various quotes i wanted, i then met Barry who came round at a time convenient to me (which was a big help) we sat down for about an hour going over plans, look, texture, colours etc until we came up with a plan (including something out there for the firepit) Deposit paid and date booked, a small delay due to the non stop rain but i was warned weather could cause delays so that was nothing unexpected. I got calls most days from Jackie who kept me informed of plans and progress etc so there wasn't a day that went by where i was left wondering. The lads arrived on site and they are just a great bunch, down to earth, take pride in what they do, good for a laugh (and a game of pool/darts). it is amazing at how quick the work takes place, especially if they are kept drowning in tea and coffee!! during the project i got a daily call from Jackie letting me know where they are up to, what tomorrow will bring, me trying to pay everything up front but Jackie preferring to get payment for the work they have done which was nicely reassuring. There were so many extra bits the lads did for me onsite, they didn't need or have to do them but even when i offered a little extra to rip out a fence post here or do something there they just got on with things. Since the project has been finished i have had a few more visits to make sure i know what to expect as it cures. have my annual inspection booked in and i couldn't be happier... hands down one of the best experiences i have had when spending that much money. It has transformed my house front and back! Thanks to everyone at DCS for all their hard work.. I will let you all know when it is finished for the BBQ!!

The team were always on time, worked really hard, kept us informed at every stage and friendly and polite. Cleaned up after themselves and made an excellent job of our lovely new patio. Jackie kept us informed of the next stage of the work. All in all a great team and fantastic communication throughout.
