What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Householders commissioning new driveways and garden patios across the Swindon area feature throughout the feedback, and the accounts settle into a familiar shape: strong practical results once the work is underway. The most detailed write-ups focus on Ryan and his crew, named repeatedly for professionalism, punctuality and a readiness to return for later projects such as a back garden transformation.

Teams are said to arrive when promised, work at pace without dropping standards and leave a sharp finish, with particular credit going to the tidy-up afterwards and the small finishing touches. Competitive quotations recur as a theme, with several people noting how quickly figures were supplied and how fairly the work was priced, alongside the quality of paving materials. Communication is more divided.

While some accounts praise the ease of arranging a start date, others describe difficulty getting responses to calls, messages and emails, missed delivery items and assurances that were not honoured. Cash payment demands, absent receipts and warranty documents also surface among the recurring grievances. Where completed jobs have thrown up snagging, the same names tend to be linked with resolving matters on site, and the general pattern is that finished driveways and patios earn praise even when booking and after-sales handling attracts frustration.

WARNING!!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!!!! Please do not use their service. They don't have enough competence to complete the job! In my case that creating other problems. My driveway was flooded as they didn't put water drainage!! In the meantime they destroyed my wall and covered everything in the mud to cover damages. They don't take responsibility for their work, even I have 12 months guarantee, given by them. No answering the phone calls from me, ignored letter sent vis Post Office. Their poor service affected also my wooden wheelie bin which was flooded with water. If you wish save your money, use somebody else. My case is going to the court now. Down to Earth Landscaping & Paving supplies is very, very bad company.

We had Ryan and the team to do our driveway a couple of years ago and they were fantastic. So much so, that we just had them back to do our back garden. As before, they were totally professional, punctual, and cleaned up all areas that had got dirty. The finish of their work is outstanding. I would highly recommend them them if you require any work doing!

I can not recommend this company enough for the work they did to transform my driveway. From the first contact with them they provided a great service. Quick quotes, booked them in at a time they suited us, and they started at this time. They worked quickly and efficiently without compromising on quality. Very impressed with this team and very happy with my new driveway- thank you

Ryan and his team have just finished our patio and it’s fantastic! After a few communication issues their work once started was first class with some real good finishing touches. Cleaning up after the job was also extremely well done. Well done and thank you to all the boys; enjoy your beers you deserve it!
