Feedback

Dear Mr. North

Just a word to say thanks for the work you did on our driveway and garden. It has certainly put the finishing touch to our renovations and created a home with curb appeal.
Paul being a tradesman himself and hard to please, thought you performed a professional job throughout and would recommend your work to any future customer.

Yours sincerely,
Elaine Groves

To Whom It May Concern,

I was recently put in touch with Peter North at Creative Driveways through recommendation.
The scope was to suggest. Design, construct and commission a large scale pumped water feature in our garden in Pottersheath, Herts. This project required the purchase and positioning of a piece of drilled natural slate with a pump and reservoir. Although this doesn't sound too demanding the access is very limited and the slate weighed in excess of 1.25 tons. The groundwork was done in a flash and the whole thing took far less time than we had anticipated.
The project was a resounding success and both my wife and I are very happy with the performance and ease to which it was achieved.
I would highly recommend Peter in future and in particular where heavy or demanding hard work is required, he seems to just eat it up.

Best regards.
Andrew Sacre

To Whom It May Concern.

Re: Creative Driveway Solutions.

The area surrounding our house was a virtual building site, and have been transformed by Peter North.
We now have a patio and lawn, side path and front steps that is both practical and a delight to look at.
We are both totally delighted with the end result. Peter was a dedicated and very tidy person to have doing the work. Both he and the people working with him were polite and would do almost anything to please. Should any person reading this wish to see the completed work we will be happy to show them.

Very sincerely,
Julie and John Saden

Dear Peter,

I am writing this letter to express how satisfied I am with the workmanship of the drive you laid for me recently. The resulting drive was exactly as we discussed and looks amazing. I was really impressed with your efficiency, timekeeping and professional manner. I would be happy to recommend your company in the future.

Yours sincerely,
Mrs A. Groves

Dear Peter,

We would like to say thank you for the lovely job you have made of our patio, driveway and back lawn. It was a pleasure to have you and your lads working here. We found you all very good, punctual, tidy workmen, who have created a lovely area as a patio that we will enjoy sitting out on in the summer. The front drive is just what we wanted and we have had many good comments from people walking by.
We would most certainly recommend you and your company to anyone wanting work done.

Thank you once again.

Regards,
Barbara and Clive Greenwood

To Whom It May Concern,

We contracted Peter to design, develop and install our 70 square metre Indian stone patio. We are delighted with the end product/finish; the quality of workmanship that Peter has portrayed really is second to none. We can sincerely recommend him for his professionalism, punctuality and 100% reliability throughout the contract.

We would definitely have no reservations about using Peter again should the need arise in the future.

Yours truly,
Mr and Mrs Greathead

I have no hesitation in recommending Peter North of Creative Driveway Solutions.

We were planning to replace our patio and to create a new shed base and after asking several companies to quote for us, we arranged for someone to do the work. After waiting some months they let us down at the last moment with the shed delivery only a week away. We found Peter advertising in the local paper and asked him for a quote. His suggestions for creating the shed base on an awkward sloping site were by far the best of all the companies who quoted. Peter's ideas stopped us making a mistake and spoiling the overall effect. The base looks very good and has been much admired by visitors. As for the patio, he returned a few weeks later and completed the patio very speedily, turning up when he said and clearing away.

We are planning some further work in our garden to create walls, steps and a water feature and we will certainly be asking Peter to quote for the work.

Yours sincerely,
Adrian and Andrea Holden

I have recently had my driveway block paved and a new patio and garden path designed and laid by Creative Driveway Solutions.

The work carried out by Peter and his team has transformed my house, the tarmac drive and plain paving slabs for path were removed and both are now a feature of the house.

Peter is very keen to discuss work and design before offering a quote; he is very eager to please his customers and offers options for consideration.

My path and patio were created in the worst weather possible for June/July. Frequently work had to stop because of downpours but they persevered as much as possible and only stopped when conditions were impossible.

At all times they were considerate in keeping the area tidy, which at time was very difficult given the weather. All his team were pleasant and helpful and I would recommend any one of them as responsible, hard working, reliable people.

Dear Peter

We would like to thank you very much for the wonderful job you and your 'lads' have done rebuilding our garden. We watched you work on the garden and drive of our next-door neighbour and we were very impressed. So much so that we were very happy to ask you to quote to have our garden paths and walls re-laid.

It makes a refreshing change to actually meet someone in the building trade who when they say they will do a particular thing, they do it and when they say they will be there at a specific time, they are. Also thanks for listening to our requirements and coming up with good solutions. For your patience, making changes mid stream so that the finished job was just what we required.

Once again, Peter, thanks to you and your team who worked very hard at doing an exceptionally good job, the finishing touches and the tidying up. We would not think twice about employing you again.

It is without hesitation that we recommend your services.

All the best for the future.

Yours sincerely

Malcolm and Vivienne Green

To whom it may concern,

Mr. Peter North has assisted us with the best possible designs along with the construction of two patios at two separate houses owned by ourselves. Peter has also designed and constructed a front path at our current property, including a side access, which had extremely difficult inclines and declines.

I have found Peter at all times to be professional, hardworking, trustworthy a good tie keeper and courteous and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs hard landscaping carried out.

Yours faithfully

John Baldwin

Dear Peter

Re: - Brick paved Driveway

I am writing to say thank you for the wonderful job that you did in laying my drive, the finished article was much better that I dared anticipate and bearing in mind that I changed my mind so often I am amazed that you even returned to finish the job let alone do such a good one.

Too many people write to complain about things but I find that few people write to congratulate people on a job well done and that’s the reason for this short note.

Ok, so I had to pay for it, but at least I was happy to part with the money when you finished because you supplied me with exactly what I asked for.

Thank you once again.

To whom it may concern

Letter of recommendation (Creative Driveway Solutions – Mr Peter North)

Background information:
We required a complete renovation of our rear garden. Having moved into the property two years previously and modernised the interior, time had come to re-landscape the exterior.

We struggled initially to find a wiling contractor to undertake the work. After much frustration arranging surveys with various landscaping companies, only for them to not show up or provide ridiculous quotations/extended dates for commencement of the project, I decided to undertake the work myself.

I contacted a local skip/ground clearance company to assist with site clearance and upon their visit, Peter North of Creative Driveway Solutions was recommended to complete the whole project. Peter showed up the same day, within 2 hours of being contacted, and we discussed the project in hand. Within one week Peter provided us with a very fair detailed quotation with an agreeable project start date, I was more than happy pass the project over to him.

Project Summary:
- Clear and level the existing site
- Landscape to cater for new raised beds
- New patio (approx. 50m²) – natural Indian sandstone paving, laid in a random pattern
- Railway sleeper style raised beds, using new fresh cut timber
- Shed base with concrete foundations
- Mowing strip/walkway around sleepers/lawn, to match patio
- Returf the lawn area (approx 40m²)

Peter was very thorough in his excavation of the site and the application of our specified design. He kept to his estimations on cost and time frame – all being within the agreed contract.

Peter was very flexible in his approach when we decided to alter the design slightly, midway through the project, and even made suggestions which he thought would improve the design which we agreed too.

The site was kept clean and tidy whilst the work was carried out, and all tradesmen involved were very friendly, approachable and professional.

I am very happy with the standard of finish of Peter’s work, and had no qualms in recommending him to my father in-law, for whom Peter carried out another project similar to that as above. I myself will be contacting Peter in the future, for work on the front of my property.

Yours sincerely

Mr Matthew Lyon

To whom it may concern

In December of 2006, I employed the professional services of Mr Peter North Creative Driveway Solutions, to undertake the landscaping to the front of my property. Despite the fact that I was totally unsure of the extent of the work that I wanted to undertake, I was aware that the proposed work would have to be planned and executed in great detail to achieve the desired result I had envisaged.

Mr North was meticulous in his excavation of the site, his estimations on cost for materials and time frame were within the agreed contract, the area was kept clean safe and tidy as the work was carried out, and he has to be complimented in his ability to have a good working relationship not only with myself as his client, but my neighbours, and the various tradesmen involved.

I am more than happy with the finished result of Mr North’s work, so much so another project on the same scope will be awarded to him in the spring at my property. I would have no hesitation to recommend him for work of this nature to others.

I can be contacted on 01438798402, if a potential client of Creative Driveway Solutions would like to speak with me regarding a reference for Mr Peter North.

Yours sincerely

Mrs R Smyth

Dear Peter

We would like to say how pleased we were with the drive you laid for us recently. Both with the quality and the professional manner in which the work was carried out.

It was good to return home to find minimal disruption and it was very helpful being able to leave our keys with you, as we were unable to be around while you were working.

Many people have commented on the appearance and quality of the drive and how good it looks. So we would have no hesitation in recommending your work to others.

Regards
