We had been searching for a company to install a drive for some time and after a number of companies let us down and messed us about we were starting to feel we wouldn't find a company. Then totally by luck i came across a recommendation on Facebook for Build a Drive. Even though they are fairly local to us, we hadn't come across them before but i am so glad we did. Initially completing the instant quote online, within half an hour i received a courtesy call to discuss how they can assist me. We made an appointment for a few days later. Right from the start, we were met with professionalism, courtesy but most of all knowledge. We have no idea when it comes to things like this so having the trust in the company is imperative. We were advised what is the best plan and material to use for our needs, along with timeframes, costs and the process. On providing a formal quote a start date was received quicker than expected. I received regular calls from the office providing me with updates and what to expect running up to the start date along with all through the process. I didn't have to call to chase or follow up any queries once, that was a major plus for me following all the messing about with previous companies. On the first day the excavation of the area was completed, leveled and first base hardcore installed. I was surprised how much had been completed in a short timeframe. The next day was the edging for the drive and vehicle crossing ready for the first level of tarmac. The final process was the finish and top level of tarmac. Taking the advice to have a wider area and choose tarmac was the best decision we made. Our street is often met with lots of parked cars due to a school being close by, having the extra width enables us to park no matter where cars are parked. The tarmac is perfectly smooth and angled slightly for drainage which has definitely been put to the test over the last couple of weeks of heavy rain, no puddles and the rain just simple runs off the tarmac. Couldn't be happier with our drive, best decision we made to have Build a Drive complete it. Thanks to all the staff at Build a Drive! We 100% recommend them.

Had the buildadrive team come and do my new tarmac drive which looks amazing couldn't fault the service from Andy coming out at the start to quote right through to the finished driveway, always kept informed and liked how Dave went through everything with me each morning if anything needed discussing, Chris even rang to give updates on progress throught the job. Excellent service!

Buildadrive is a very professional company. All the men that built our drive worked hard and were very friendly and respectful. They have done a brilliant job and we have had many comments from neighbours some have been amazed by the way the work was carried out and watched daily of the progress to the end result. Thank you to all at Buildadrive

Very impressed with this company, communication throughout the works was impressive and essential given that access was required for staff. The quality of preparation and finish was to a high standard. At the end, the site was pressure washed to ensure it was left clean and tidy.

Having received several quotes in respect of tarmacking of our drive, we decided to accept the one provided by Oliver Graham at Buldadrive.com. From start to finish the workmen were very punctual in the mornings, worked extremely hard to ensure the schedules were met and on time. A special mention at this stage must go to Mark who led the proceedings on site to a very high standard. The overall finish of the job is exceptional and as a result we are very pleased with the outcome. Finally we must mention Chris Stott who right from the outset kept us in the loop with regular telephone updates. We therefore express our thanks to him and his team.

This company his Absolutely fantastic highly recommended them andy & chris top blokes no problems at all

We contacted the company just by looking on the website and wonderful reports they had already received.From the first contact we were treated with thoughtfulness and respect and that continued until the last wave goodbyes.
The initial consultation explained everything in detail and in easy to understand terms.
The work started at a date to suit us all and everyone was here on time to start.
The groundwork done by Mark and his team was superb, the weather was awful wet cold winds blowing from the North Sea and rather than use a machine to take up all the excavated soil etc up quite a rise from the back of the house did it using wheelbarrows so not to damage the garden.The men hardly took a break and worked so hard now having to wheelbarrow all the hardcore etc back down again to the back of the property.After 5 gruelling days the prep was finished and the whole site left immaculate.
Along came Tom who jet washed it all down ready for the resin to be laid the next day.Yet again polite ,considerate and did not take a break.
Dan and the resin team (all 7 ) arrived on time and were thoughtful,helpful,polite and considerate and worked tirelessly until complete and everywhere left immaculate.
I can only give this company and all the team my highest praise and would happily recommend it to anyone concerned.
As a final note I would share that we already had had resin done years ago and the company disappeared off the face of the earth afterwards so we were wary but now know what it should be done like now by this wonderful company and their attention to detail.
Congratulations to all the team and thank you.
Already thinking of maybe another venture with them!

Excellent end to end service and quality. Reliable team from Andy coming out, pricing up the job and agreeing a really good price, we agreed a date for completion. Mark and his team turned up on time were really professional and and kept me updated throughout. Chris followed everything up with a friendly call. Icing on the cake was following completion even though Mark and the team had done a thorough clean, they went the extra mile and sent an industrial jet wash! Definitely recommend!

Just had a Resin Driveway completed by Build a Drive! Can highly recommend. Very professional from start to completion. Detailed quotation so we knew exactly what we were getting for our money. Was kept informed along the way by both site and office personnel. Great job guys, thank you.

Build a Drive have just completed the preparation for a resin drive and patio. This involved a ***t load of digging out, laying foundation and edging blocks, drain alterations and laying tarmac. It's not been an easy job as the weather's been a problem and there've been a couple of minor problems found as the job progressed (e.g. a question regarding a drain which ultimately came to nothing but did cause a delay). However in spite of all this, the team worked amazingly hard throughout, in the mud, rain and freezing cold. They were all courteous and kept me informed about progress. The level of professionalism was excellent as was the attention to detail.
As a result of a pure (almost freak) accident there was some damage done to a PVC sill. The member of the team who'd done it spoke to me straightaway which I appreciated and it was replaced within 48 hours. No messing.
So, a great team, a great result and I'd recommend Build a Drive!

Got this company in through recommendations and didn't disappoint.
Mark and his team worked through all weather conditions to get my drive ready for resin,and know its finished I'm well satisfied,
Thank you all.

We had to wait for a site visit to prepare our estimate but it was worth it. The muddy access to our garage has been transformed into a super new driveway with a lovely resin-bound top surface. The surface is non-slip and the rain drains through it as advertised. The team worked on Saturdays to compensate for delays due to bad weather and they cleaned up afterwards. They completed the job for the estimated price and although a resin-bound drive is not a cheap option we are delighted with the result.

I contacted this company on line for a quote,I expected an email but instead I received a call the next day and an appointment was made. From start to finish this company have been professional polite and helpful. My driveway was completed on time and it looks stunning. After the job was completed I had follow up calls to make sure I was happy with the job. I have also received my guarantee which is for 10 years.
The whole team from sales to the team working on the drive are wonderful, I cannot praise enough.
I would recommend the team.
Thank you

We are delighted with our new drive. All the personnel in the teams who visited us to accomplish their various parts of the process were pleasant, efficient and very hard working. We were kept informed about what was going on and what would be done next. We have had several nice comments about the drive and would have no hesitation in recommending Buildadrive.com to anyone else.

Very friendly and professional outfit. Couldn't be more helpful, answering all of our questions and setting a bollard into the drive for us. Really happy with the speed of the job and the result. Thank you!

If you’re dithering about trying to make up your mind about Build A Drive you need to know how good they are from first visit from Andy to all the information on their website and fair pricing it is gold standard
Mark,Zak and John were the team on our driveway they were hardworking but more importantly set themselves a very high standard of workmanship, what you can see is perfect although what is now covered up in the foundations is of the same high standard.
Maybe someone else could do the same but they could not better it
Big thanks to everyone

The whole team have been great, nothing was too much trouble. They wanted to make our drive as perfect as we wanted it to be. The digging up of the garden and old drive to washing, cleaning off the street was great. Cannot thank them enough.

I’m thrilled with the work done on our garden so huge thanks to Buildadrive! We’ve had a mix of resin, Indian stone and stone cobble edging which looks really chic. The quote was done in quick time and we were booked in in no time, they kindly did the work sooner than anticipated too. The construction team were polite, punctual and they communicated all steps with me throughout. Would highly recommend them.

I can't rate Buildadrive highly enough. They've transformed the mess that was my driveway into a fantastic looking pattern imprinted concrete one. Decent and hardworking, they turned up when they said they would and despite some issues caused by the bad weather, they didn't stop until the driveway was finished to the highest standard. Proper job done. Absolutely no complaints.

Highly recommend build a drive from start to finish, they are professional and courteous.
I’m so happy with my Indian stone drive, even the neighbours stop and comment when passing. One even saying it’s the best they have seen
