Efficient, skilled teamwork
I read many of the previous reviews on this site, and I feel at a loss to know what to add to all those glowing accounts... The large team worked together in a way which could only be described as choreographed, and although I had expected the large drive resurfacing to take many days, it was completed very quickly. This is what experienced teamwork looks like! Gordon, at all stages of the process, was direct, informative and responsive. I would unreservedly recommend this family company.

Brilliant Work
G Hill and Sons did a fantastic job at dropping the kerb and laying the tarmac for access to our new drive. Arrived first thing in the morning and started work straight away. Minimum disruption to other road users. They were very quick and did a brilliant job, cleared everything away and the end result is better than I expected. Thank you Gordy and team.

Resin Driveway
G Hill and son recently laid a new resin driveway for me. The prep work took a day and saw a large team arrive first thing and get the job done super quick. The completely cleared all mess away and prepared the drive for the 2nd team who came a few days later to lay the resin. I'd expected the resin to take a full day, but again due to the number of people working it was completed in a matter of hours. Incredibly pleased with the new driveway I'd thoroughly recommend G.Hill and Sons LTD

Tarmac driveway repair
We needed our tarmac driveway repaired as a section of it, around 2 feet x 2 feet had badly sunk. We contacted Gordon Hill for a quotation, having been recommend by friends at my bowls club who sang their praises as a reputable local family run business. Mr Hill came the same day we had called him to evaluate the work. Mr hill was very friendly and explained exactly what needed to be done in a way that put us at our ease and confident to use them. We received the quote that evening which was very impressive. We found the quote to be competitive and a date was set to carry out the work which was to retarmac a strip of our driveway approximately 3 feet wide and just over 2 car lengths long. Around 6 workmen arrived, and it was so impressive, they all had a role, and it was nonstop organised professional work. They completed the first stage of removing the existing tarmac and base in a morning and returned the next day to lay the top layer of tarmac. Throughout the whole job Mr Hill’s team, the majority being family members, were courteous, friendly, and professional and they left everything clean and tidy. We are so impressed with this company, from the speed of receiving the quotation to have the work carried out and completed to such a high standard. Great family business, we will without question use them again and would definitely recommend them.

Resin driveway
Gordon and his team did an amazing job with our drive. It was in a very poor state and so we have had a resin finish done by him and his associate company. They enlarged the drive area, did a lot of prep work and were always very tidy and meticulous with the work. The finish is excellent, and i am very happy to now have a house with great "curb appeal". All the guys who worked on the job were very polite and friendly, and l would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for this type of work to be completed.

DRIVEWAY
We we needed our driveway and shared drive resurfacing as the original tarmac had been down for over 35 years and was in a very poor state. We had no hesitation in approaching this company for quotes which were done very professionally and promptly. Once we had agreed to the works, a date was set and the initial works carried out. At the same time, they reset some of the edging bricks and removed a tree root which had raised part of the old drive. Unfortunately the weather intervened, so the laying of the final surface was delayed by a couple of days. This was done very professionally and to a very high standard. Excellent service all round.

Resurface driveway
Gordy and the team came a gave me a quote for getting my driveway resurfaced only a few weeks ago. G Hill has a very good reputation in this area, and I had several recommendations to use them before making contact, plus they had done my neighbours resin drive and did a fantastic job. Needless to say, they did a great job on my driveway too. No mess, and a super smooth finish. I would definitely used them again.

We had a dropped kerb put in to extend our driveway access across a public footpath. Gordon was friendly and helpful when quoting. He advised me what I needed to do to apply for a certificate with the council for the works to go ahead and although this took a while from the local council and Highways Authority (no fault of G Hills & Sons), as soon as the permission came through they started the job within a few days. His guys completed the job efficiently and thoroughly with no mess left. I would recommend this company and definitely use again.

The job in hand was to scrape off old ballast from a driveway, add some Type 1 for new driveway areas, and then add new ballast on top. Zero damage, 100% satisfied. The effort Gordon went to to ensure we had the right kind of ballast surface was something you don't get every day. Very satisfied, and you will be too.

Excellent workmanship
We had Gordon Hill and Sons tarmac our dilapidated driveway. The quote seemed competitive and the work from start to finish, including 90sq metres of tarmac, a gravel path and installation of channel drainage in front of the garage, was completed in six hours – there were eight of them mind. These last two days have seen some real downpours and the tarmac shaping towards the existing soakaway and garage channel drain have been put to the test and they’ve passed with a completely dry garage. I would highly recommend this team to anyone looking to have their driveway refurbished.

Driveway work
G Hill and Sons Ltd did a great job improving and updating my sons driveway. Gordon Hill was easy to deal with, he arrived when he said he would and explained everything. He understood what was wanted and gave us three options. He was quick to come out and price the job, and quick to email me and answer my email questions. The men who did the work were delightful and hard working. The job was done as agreed, efficiently, in time to the price agreed. The new drive looks so much better and does the job he wanted. The team who did the work, arrived on time and set up everything. They made everything easy and were approachable and hard working. My son disabled and so needs extra thought when jobs are done at his house, and that is what he got.

This is the second or third time in the last 18 years I have used G.Hill and Sons for resurfacing work and repairs to different parts of a long length of tarmac road which is a farm access, and serves a number of houses. For sections that I wish to have patched for budget reasons, Gordon is always pragmatic and fair, with sensible advice on where economies can be made. Gordon's team is always efficient, and thorough, doing an excellent job, always on time. A pleasure to do business with.

Brilliant service from start to finish
I recently contacted Gordon Hill to quote for my large driveway. Gordon was courteous, efficient, knowledgable and gave a very fair quote. He went out of his way to source a material that I thought I wanted. I changed plan and decided to use the material he had suggested and I definitely made the right choice. I was specific on shade of stone to tone with a 300 year old property. The team turned up as agreed and worked very hard battling awful rain at times. The work done far exceeded my expectations and I am thrilled with the result. My father used this company 20 years ago and I remembered his recommendation. They have continued their high standards. Site was left exceptionally clean and tidy and I highly recommend them. Well done G Hill & sons ltd!

After contacting G. Hill and Sons I promptly had a visit from Gordon who assessed the work I needed to be done on my driveway. I soon received a pleasing quote for the work requested and informed Gordon I'd like to proceed with work. His team arrived on time on the day we had arranged for the work to start. Immediately they got to work with every member of the team constantly busy even though the weather was terrible. The work took a few days but the progress was amazing. Each evening the site was tidied and left in a way to cause minimal disruption to me. The transformation to my driveway is incredible and the work done is flawless. I would recommend G.

I highly recommend Gordon Hill and Sons. They are a very professional and highly competent contractor. The drive leads to four houses and is very steep and they advised us to have a resin bound surface which was laid very professionally and all four house owners are very delighted with the finished work. Gordon is a very friendly individual, very responsive with any queries and kept me completely up to date with the scheduling of the work and any potential restricted access issues while the resin bound surface set. There were no negative issues relating to the work and all workmen were very polite to other neighbours affected by the work if they had access issues. I would definitely use Gordon Hill and Sons again and I highly recommend them.

First time experience, was most impressed and would definitely use again.Would definitely recommend this company to any third party.
As an OAP inexperienced in construction this company was recommended to me and this was the first occasion, I have used their services. The project was small to remove a poor hard standing of loose stones for a motorcar and replace it with a properly constructed standing topped off with tar macadam. The company was courteous from the outset and a site visit was promptly made. An estimate of the work to be undertaken was emailed shortly thereafter setting out what required to be done and the cost. The offer was accepted and thereafter the company kept me closely informed regarding the date to undertake this work. The workforce arrived on the date and time indicated and the contractor also showed concern not to disrupt any neighbours. The small job was completed after a few hours and the site left clean and vacant.
