WANTED: Lay a driveway

Recommended Posts

I asked for recommendations on the EDF about four weeks ago and researched a few recommendations.Frankito my neighbour said his friend Liam had done his driveway in paving slabs, which looked good, but not what I was looking for, as I wanted block paving.However I contacted Liam,who called and said it was not the type of work he did, "but he knew a man who did". Liam contacted his friend Seamus who duly called a few days later, we discussed the requirements and at the end of the week I received his quotes for doing the job in two different ways.I opted for the slightly more expensive option and Seamus, his father Tom and Tony started the following Monday.Absolutely no money was requested until the job was completed, they worked quickly and cleanly and even removed quite a lot of brick rubble I had from a wall I had demolished,this was done at no extra charge whatsoever,needless to say I gave them a drink on top for this but Seamus said this was not necessary. I now have a beautiful brindle coloured block paved driveway with charcoal coloured border, it looks superb. If any of you need a great block paved driveway contact Seamus Kane on 07539 196074.A great job well done.My thanks also to Frankito for giving me the contact details to enable me to get such a good result.I should add that Liam phoned the Sunday after completion to check if I was happy with the result, which of course I was and still am.

    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
