    "Really pleased with the work John and team did in our garden. We had a small area where a shed had been that we wanted block paved. We had the bricks left over from a previous project and John used them to create a nice paved area. They were really quick, got the job done in about 5 hours and meant we could use the space the next day. We've already started talking about the next project of a resin driveway with John possibly next year. Very happy with the work and that we found John here on Trust A Trader"

    Kevin - Image 1 "John and his team did a superb job of completely transforming our existing gravel driveway to a fantastically high standard. Additionally they completely removed overgrown shrubs, trees and heather from the front of the house- this space is now laid with gravel creating a new parking space. Broken paving slabs were fixed or replaced and all slabs were high pressure cleaned to look brand new. Throughout the whole process, John was friendly, professional and courteous- as were his team. I am still amazed that this high standard of work was completed in only 4 days! We are incredibly pleased with the completed work and would thoroughly recommend Active Drives to anyone looking to transform their outside space."

    "I needed a dropped kerb for my driveway and the job was completed to an excellent standard. The pavement on that section was uneven so John also levelled it to ensure the finished result for the driveway was as neat and durable as possible. Overall the team did a fantastic job and were always friendly too!"
