Review by Alison
on 14th June 2024
"I was looking for a landscaper to take up and lay a new larger patio, install a brick porch and replace some fence panels, I came across BMS and arranged a site visit by email. Perry was easy to talk to and straight to the point, very honest and helpful throughout. He made me aware that there would be a few weeks before he could start the job as he was booked up (which I took as a good sign) it was definitely worth the wait to get the fantastic result, I am so pleased with everything, Perry and the team are extremely hardworking and so friendly, I could not believe how much they got done after the first week. I would and have already recommended them to anyone looking for a porcelain patio, new front porch or driveway they are brilliant!"

"I had already used BMS for my patio, and was happy to give them the repeat business for my drive. The team worked efficiently, were pleasant to work with, and were keen to understand and clarify our exact requirements. Very high quality work - highly recommended."
