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.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
