CW Stanley Surfacing and Landscape Co.

The CW team transformed a thirty-year-old gravel driveway. Not only were they professional, courteous and a complete joy to have at the property but they have totally enhanced and increased the value of our property in the most excellent way by their workmanship. I cannot recommend them enough.

The standard of workmanship on our new driveway by Aaron and the boys from C W Stanley is more than we could have hoped for. From the initial site visit to the end of the project, communication was excellent. They were professional, friendly and worked in absolute unison together backing each other up to make sure all ran smoothly. We are so pleased with the end result and would not hesitate in recommending C W Stanley.

I am really pleased with the groundwork and finishing of the drive that CW Stanley recently put in for me. Aaron Stanley is a great customer service professional and ensured the I understood what my choices were and how the work would be carried out to produce the best result - he was already to talk and explain to me what they were doing and how the work was proceeding . I was amazed at how minimal the disruption was to me and my neighbours - given how narrow the lane is where I live and the amount of machinery and manoeuvring needed to complete the job to the really high specifications that they managed. CW Stanley are a family business with high values and standards. They are friendly, hardworking and really skilled - I couldn't have asked for a better experience and outcome.

We certainly chose the best in the business to redo our patio in resin edged with contrasting blocks. They also redid the drive with tarmac. Both areas look outstanding and we are delighted with the outcome. The team were so polite and friendly. Their attention to detail was second to none. We would like to thank Aaron who lead the team for his patience and thoughtfulness. We would thoroughly recommend CW Stanley to everyone.

From first meeting Charlie who did one of our quotes, to completion, our whole experience with CW Stanley has been excellent and I cannot recommend them highly enough. A family run business where the highest standards of perfection are shown. The team were professional, friendly, extremely polite and listened and responded to all our requirements, going above and beyond on helpful suggestions and going that extra mile to exceed our expectations. My husband and I expect the highest standards and we were not disappointed. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Delighted with the completion of our second driveway project after many years. A super result. (the first, is still in excellent condition) Super, top level professionals. A reliable, trustworthy family Company. Polite, highly experienced, intelligent and tidy. Confidence inspiring. No hesitation booking them again in the future. Recommend this Company now, just as they were recommended to us.

I would like to commend the work of C. W. Stanley – Surfacing and Landscape Company. The company have undertaken 2 extensive projects for us, and both were completed to the highest standards. The latest project was the resurfacing of our drive with permeable tarmac, to retile the floor of our porch, make some alterations to our garden walls and replace our drain covers. They also buried a telecommunications cable beneath the drive and up to the house. All the work was carried out with a high degree of professionalism, accuracy and attention to detail. This was a difficult job requiring excellent teamwork to achieve such outstanding results. There was a strong sense of pride in a job done well from all members of the team. Communication was excellent. From start to finish we were kept fully informed and were consulted and advised regarding all decisions. I was impressed by the technical expertise of the team and with their hard work. The project has improved the look of the house. All members of the team were a pleasure to work with and the project was completed efficiently and for a good price. All work was completed on schedule and disruption was kept to a minimum. The site was always left clean and tidy. We were fully informed about the tarmac and its aftercare. We were given contact details should we need further advice as well as a helpful information leaflet. I have no hesitation in recommending this company.

The work we had undertaken involved the removal of a badly cracked concrete driveway and replacement by tarmac and brick edging. Very professional service, from the start of our dealings with the firm, using their website, through arranging an initial site meeting, followed by a detailed quotation and subsequent work undertaken on site. Although there was a several month wait before the work could be undertaken, due to their existing commitments (of which we were advised at the outset), the actual work was undertaken several days before the provisionally agreed date and completed within the expected timescale. It also was in accordance with the quotation provided. At all times, their staff were polite, helpful and well presented. When on site, their team were efficient, disciplined, courteous, well behaved and minimised disruption to our neighbours. Machinery and materials arrived when required and were on site for no longer than necessary. We were grateful for advice received from Charlie Stanley before, during and after the works and his willingness to answer any queries we might have had. The whole experience exceeded our expectations and we are very happy to recommend their services to any other prospective clients.

From the very first visit with Aaron to discuss our requirements to the final finish it was seamless, professional and all the team did a remarkable transformation of our driveway. We would highly recommend C.W Stanley and give the entire team 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Thank you team C.W Stanley

C W Stanley were delightful to deal with from the first time I contacted them. They; and in particular Colin were hugely supportive during a long period of time while we deliberated design options and prepared multiple quotes for me with several site visits. They were very patient with us! The work completed is exceptional and the team; including multiple family members were all hugely professional. CW Stanley have the skills, equipment and desire to complete exceptional work. I cannot recommend them more highly. I would not go anywhere else for similar work. A massive thank you to the C W Stanley team.

CW Stanley put in our new driveway. They were very friendly and efficient from start to finish. The completed the job very quickly, just 2 days, even though for one of those it was pouring with rain. We are very happy with their service and our drive looks fabulous. I would one hundred percent recommend them.

From the first phone call Chloe was extremely professional, always returned calls when promised, always emailed out the appointment times that Charlie would be attending and even sent email reminders which was great, whenever I called the office Chloe was always helpful and friendly, nothing seemed to much trouble, she is super organised. Charlie viewed the job and my husband and I were again very impressed with how professional and knowledgeable he was, he had a lot of patience and went through our plan for our driveway with us and made suggestions where things could be improved, he also visited us again a week before the job was going to start to go over the plan, this again was arrange by Chloe, Charlie’s calm manner filled us with confidence that CW Stanley’s were the firm we wanted to do our driveway. All of the guys on the job were great, professional, knowledgeable and again nothing was too much trouble. Start to finish was a lovely experience, lovely firm to deal with. We have to thank them all, thanks you to: Chloe, Charlie, Mike, Mike, Tim, Ewan, Aaron, Luke, Joe, Gary and Colin

If you are looking for high quality work carried out by an exceptionally professional team then look no further than CW STANLEY. The complete job from start to finish was total perfection.

We were so pleased with the work Aaron and his team did on our driveway a few years ago that we knew they would be the right people to build us a much needed patio, and we weren’t wrong. Why were they the right people? Well it’s quite simple, they are one hundred percent focused on customer satisfaction, they have ‘old school’ quality values, every customer is special no matter how big or small the job. A team who are polite, attentive, genuine and honest and nothing is to much trouble. We are absolutely delighted with our new patio, high quality workmanship, high quality stone and the work completed when they said they would and all at a fair price. Would we recommend CW Stanley, without a doubt. Thank you Aaron and your team.

Our third job carried out by this firm - to their usual standard of attention to detail, and finish. Leave them alone, apart from tea and biscuits occasionally, and enjoy, like us, the sight of a very good job done at the end. Thanks again, guys.

From the first contact to the end of the job they have been faultless. Excellent communication, no big sell waffle, super helpful. They kept me fully informed at all times, the whole team worked hard and were very respectful even to a couple of neighbours who weren’t whilst the work was ongoing. They kept everything clean and tidy, even unblocking a drain that they found to be blocked whilst carrying out the work. Definitely above and beyond. The end result is far better than I expected. Would use them again and would be happy to recommend them to anyone. They love tea and biscuits.

A carriage drive, that accommodates 8 cars, block paved 18 months ago, and a 100 square metre patio, with raised planter, finished in porcelain slabs just completed. The whole process on both occasions, from start to finish, has been brilliant. Communication, organisation, timeliness, attitude and tidiness all outstanding and every individual an absolute pleasure to deal with. One word 'professional' in every aspect of the business and on budget. A big thank you to the whole team.

We commissioned C W Stanley January 2021 to carry out both landscape and substantial driveway works - parking for at least six cars. I dealt with Aaron in the run-up to our works commencing. He was very helpful and always responded to my questions regarding how I'd like the works to progress in a clear and effective manner. They arrived on the day when the said they would. They kept everything clean and tidy as best as possible. They resolved an issue that arose with cabling incorrectly previously installed. They installed drainage, prepared the ground, removed trees, laid (a lot!) of tarmac and worked quickly and efficiently throughout. Aaron (and crew) are helpful, approachable, very courteous and ensures that the best outcome is achieved. I have no hesitation in recommending this company, their attention to detail is fantastic.

We had our back garden patio relaid with Indian sandstone, new fencing around rear garden, steps installed for easier access to new patio and driveway laid to complete the front of the house. CW Stanley..what can we say, you were all absolutely outstanding. Punctual, no hidden extras, excellent communication and worked 100% with us financially. Highly recommended, extremely helpful and just a great team that went above and beyond. Would also like to say thank you for how tidy you left everything after each day you went home. Highly recommended!

I would definitely recommend this company, professional and pleasant to deal with. Carried out the work on time, excellent quality and communication was great.

Excellent workmanship and attention to detail. The team are very friendly and approachable. Highly recommended.

C W Stanley have just completed our new drive and front garden paths. Excellent service from initial quote to completion. Very patient through the planning stage when we kept changing our minds, very helpful with ideas, the work itself was completed very tidily and efficiently with lots of communication throughout to make sure we were happy. A family business who clearly demonstrate their family values.

Exceptional finish to our new driveway that totally exceeded our expectations when we saw it for the first time. Really pleased with every aspect of the service, seemed very much worth what we paid and would highly recommend this company.

Excellent service from initial quote through to job completion. CW Stanley were extremely helpful and accommodating when we had to postpone the initial installation date due to awaiting on Openreach to complete their Job. The driveway was completed to an extremely high standard and the team were professional, polite, cheerful, tidy and hard working throughout and the quality of the work is outstanding. It was a pleasure to have them tarmacing the drive for us and we are extremely pleased with the finished result. We highly recommend CW Stanley .

I was very happy with the quality of work that Colin and his team done to our driveway. Colin visited us before hand to dicuss what I wanted and done exactly what was asked. They turned up on time kept the site tidy, and was pleased to see that all of their equipment was clean as well. I would be happy to recommend them to others.

Excellent work during the laying of the driveway. Advice and guidance from Aaron was most helpful in making decisions on materials and design. The project was completed in two days with a great team of six craftsmen. The finished driveway looks terrific and has received much praise from neighbours. In other words we are very pleased the finished result. A big thank you to all concerned.

Absolutely top class service from start to finish from CW Stanley Surfacing Co. They were a pleasure to deal with throughout the process. Great to see a company with such Professional values. Highly recommended. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am delighted with the landscaping of my garden. The work was completed to a very high standard. The crew were professional, reliable, courteous and always tidied up at the end of each day. I got the impression that this is a company which takes great pride in the standard of work they deliver. Outstanding.

From my initial meeting with Charlie to the day of the job, nothing was too much trouble or hassle. All the team were extremely polite, helpful, and went above and beyond for the perfect job. I cannot recommend C.W Stanley enough, true professionals, and a great finished job.

It may not have been their biggest commission, but to us it was! Thank you for an exceptionally beautiful job, now our new base just needs a summer house (though it will be a shame to cover up this beautiful piece of block paving). Our special thanks go to Tim & Charlie, who were polite, friendly, professional & explained every step of the job to us. Each night they tidied & cleaned up, so that you would never know they had been. Would have no hesitation in recommending CW Stanley for your project and would not hesitate to have them back for any future garden projects we undertake.

From my first meeting with Aaron to discuss the project through to completion, I knew I was dealing with a reliable, professional company. The quotation included a full description of works to be undertaken, so I was confident the company knew what it was doing. My confidence was not misplaced and the team (the A-Team!) completed the job of resurfacing my patio with resin bound stone in accordance with the schedule and to a very high standard. They also kept my neighbours informed, requesting permission to park their vehicles etc, which earned them and myself high kudos. I couldn't be happier.

Professional service and fabulous product - looks great. Very happy with result, looks very clean and modern. Hard wearing and will provide good drainage.

From quotation to completion CW Stanley were extremely attentive and professional - giving me practical and honest advice on how to renovate a driveway without just recommending the most expensive option. The job was completed to a very high standard. Though there were some unforeseen issues with the job, the guys made sure I was kept fully informed with great communication throughout. I’m Really pleased with the work and enjoyed dealing with Aaron and the team!

This is a family firm run by Colin Stanley. Right from the start I was impressed by the way they interpreted my requirements, made suggestions and priced accordingly. Unfortunately, the lockdown then intervened but Colin kept us up to date with what he was doing. Once lockdown eased we agreed on a new programme and work started on time. All the guys involved have been very courteous and polite. The standard of workmanship has been of the highest order and the job was finished on time and to budget. We cannot praise this firm too highly and would not hesitate to recommend.

I very rarely write reviews, but on this occasion, I am more than happy to do so. In my view, there are four types of companies - (1) bad (2) OK (3) good (4) outstanding. This company easily fits into category (4). The work involved extensive groundwork in preparation for the laying of about 90m2 Tegula Drivesett block paviors. The work was completed on time and to the agreed budget. As soon as I met Colin Stanley I knew that his company would be awarded the contract. He was agreeable, honest, helpful, and very knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble. This firm comes highly recommended.

Aaron, Colin & team very smart & first class work to create tarmac & resin drive over 3 days. Efficient & tidy. Looks great. Very pleased.

The job was quoted as 2 days and it was finished in 2 days. No mess left behind just a beautiful new driveway. The team were smartly dressed and very polite. They even carried my shopping from the car. I have seen other driveways in my area and seen other companies working but if you want the best then Colin Stanley and his boys are the best. A big thank you to you all.

Colin, Aaron and the rest of the team did a first class job promptly and professionally. In the past we have had some poor experiences with Dorset tradespeople, so it was a refreshing change to deal with such a quality company. We hope they get through the current situation and thrive for many years to come.

Colin and his guys laid over 60m2 of block paving - Colin came and agreed layout and block colour 2 days prior to commencement. On the first day Colin arrived with five guys, most his family ,and all the reduced levels, edging and sub base was laid. Next day they laid the sand and blocks. The work look great, on budget, everything was clean and tidy. What a pleasant company, extremely efficient and polite, I had them recommended to me and would certainly recommend them to anyone else.

Wow! Amazing work! The team of 6 arrived promptly at 08:30 today (Christmas Eve) and were friendly and helpful and started work straight away on our tarmac drive. They had completed the first layer in no time and the second layer went on straight after that, leaving an immaculate finish. The work was complete by 11:30 by which time they had cleared up and packed their vans. What a professional job from start to finish! Thank you so much Colin and Merry Christmas!

The team was very professional, polite, organised and hard working. They laid asphalt on our driveway and front garden (large area) and ibstalled fences on either side. They discussed with us all the available options, answered all our questions and double checked the final details before the work started. They listened to all our requests and met them, always striving to provide the best service possible. They were by far the best team we employed for the landscaping work at our house. We are very pleased with the high quality work they carried out and recommend them strongly.

Aaron and the team were very professional from the outset, keeping me fully informed about the project from start to finish. They have excellent attention to detail and the end result is magnificent! Their customer service is second to none. I had reason to have a few blocks replaced before the drive could be sealed, and Aaron was only too happy to come out and sort out the problem with the minimum of fuss. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend CW Stanley.

Colin and his team did the block paving of our drive. His patience while we made up our mind was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. He knew exactly what our needs were and accommodated them accordingly. His choice of stones for the potential plant and drain area was outstanding and the work was carried out in the agreed timescale and to our satisfaction. We would not hesitate to recommend Colin to carry out blockpaving!

This team arrived on time worked hard and did a first class job. All the team dressed smartly were polite and helpful. Everything was always left clean and tidy. Mr Stanley the owner took time to call round one evening and introduce me to another gentleman who he recommended to do some other work connected to the new drive we were having. I was most impressed with everything. Even my neighbours commented on what a good job they did and how courteous they were.

From initial consultation and quote right through to completion, Colin and his boys were professional, courteous, tidy and efficient. We are delighted with our resin drive and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

I would have no hesitation in recommending C W Stanley. From review and scope of the requirements in providing a quote (which remained the same at the end of the job) through to execution and completion, the team was courteous, clean, quick and thorough. Our drive is now the envy of our road. So refreshing to deal with honest and friendly tradesmen!

I am absolutely delighted with my new patio and paving at the side and front of the house. The job was started on time and completed to the initially agreed cost. The installation team were friendly, tidy and efficient in achieving a professional result. I would have no hesitation in recommending C W Stanley and their team of installers. So glad that I chose them.
