Work partially completed but very aggressive to deal with

We hired Equity to replace the grouting on our patio, a small repair to a tile and jet wash it. They did the job but I had to ask them to return to re-do the tile repair as it had been done in the wrong colour and the jet washing was not throughly done. They returned quickly and sorted the repair but were not able to improve on the jet wash finish, which had been done to a much higher standard by another company the previous year. My main issue was the aggressive manner in which they began demanding payment before I had even had a chance to return home and check the job. As it transpired, it did need redoing so I am glad I was not bullied into paying sooner. The incessant calling and texting over 2 days despite me providing a timeline for checking and paying became threatening and unpleasant and I cannot recommend using them both on grounds of quality or approach. Sadly, very unsettling to experience.

Equity Drives would like to respond to these comments first of all this is a remedial project and we were making good work carried out by others and we always make clear we can't guarantee these works. We carried out all the works and then sent our client her invoice and tried to contact her to see if she is happy with the works. Four days later we had a reply saying she wasn't happy and asked for money off her bill or come back. We went back the next day and did all the works again and changed the damaged step. The stains on the patio could not be removed they are impregnated into the stone and from experience it's been there for a long time. Regarding the calling and texting we were only trying to communicate with our client which we found very difficult. All of the works were carried out to our highest standards and our previous reviews confirm this and this is our policy. Regarding threatening and unpleasant behaviour Equity Drives takes this very seriously and do not in anyway conduct ourselves in this manner. Equity Drives would like to reassure potential clients you only need to read our previous reviews and see the positive response we receive. We would also like to mention to our client we were very grateful for the business and the payment and it is never in Equity Drives intentions to provide poor workmanship or be rude in any way as we pride ourselves on providing a excellent service to all our customers at all times as we have hundreds of satisfied customers. Thank you

Equity Drives; John and team can be summed up in one word - Excellent!! The level of professionalism, care and customer attention is superb. We are so glad we went with them after having several quotes and seeing several driveways. Our driveway looks amazing but what's more important is the foundation and that sets them apart. They dig deep and they have prepared a very solid base which gives me a lot of confidence in longevity. The guys were polite, courteous and cleaned up afterwards. I’d highly recommend them if you want a driveway that stands out from the rest. Thanks John and team!!

Having my drive completed by Equity drives was the best decision I could have made. From my first meeting with Danny he was knowledgable and helpful and I knew I wanted to work with them. I had various other quotes but none compared with Equity. I was very particular with what I wanted and Danny was patient sending me samples on numerous occasions until I got exactly what I wanted. Other companies quoted two weeks to complete the work where Equity completed in 2 days!!The team were punctual, courteous clean and tidy. I have had numerous compliments and would definitely recommend Equity.

Extending existing driveway paving

We recently moved into a new property and urgently needed our driveway extended so did not hesitate to contact John and his amazing team to complete the job, as we have used them previously for our driveway. As expected, we continued to be impressed by the overall professionalism and quality of the work carried out. John quoted for us clearly, detailing everything that we wanted and as previously, the team were so polite, tidy and worked hard from the second they arrived on site. We will certainly be using them again for our pending garden works and cannot recommend them enough to anyone who needs work done. Thank you again, we couldn’t be happier with our new driveway.

I have to say, it's impossible to find fault with Equity Drives. Their workforce was extremely courteous, conscientious and considerate, and the final result is of the highest standards. All of our neighbours have commented on both aspects to us and are highly impressed. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone.

John and the team were all courteous and punctual. The initial price quoted was adhered to without issue and the completed work was carried out in a very timely manner but nothing was skipped. I am over the moon with the result and would recommend this company to any family member or friend that wanted a replacement drive. A+++ all around.

Excellent driveway renewal by Equity Drives

I saw a driveway completed by Equity Drives near me and I could see that the quality of workmanship was at the very highest level. John came to discuss our needs and came up with some good options and suggestions. We were waiting to complete some other house building work but John booked a tentative date so we we were on his schedule. Work started exactly when estimated and John and his team worked full days to dig out and prepare the area. The team worked so efficiently and tidily, making sure that everything was swept up and nothing impacted our neighbours. We’d opted for a resin drive so the weather needed to be just right for laying it but we only waited a couple of days and the finish is absolutely superb. Our house now looks like a totally new home with a smart new front wall and new drive. My builder who’s done other recent work for us and has been building houses for 50 years says the brickwork on our wall is outstanding and he’s now taken Equity’s details to recommend them to his other customers. Overall I’d wholeheartedly recommend Equity Drives, the project came in at exactly the price quoted, on time and done with great skill and attention to detail (and I’m quite hard to please). It was a pleasure to have the Equity team working here and I’ve already got a patio project in mind for them in 2024. Thanks John and team.
