Phil Young contacted The New Driveway Company requesting a block driveway for two cars, a new fence along the front of the boundary and between the neighbouring property.
We also designed and created two large steps to match the house and lay a Grey Natural Sandstone patio.
On the first day that we arrived, the client opened the door wearing a Swindon Town FC football shirt, despite living in Wycombe. As a company full of lifelong Oxford United fans we had to overcome our prejudices and work in harmony – lots of friendly banter was exchanged as you can see from the client testimonial below!
The steps to the front and back door needed to be cleverly designed to give better access but also to fit with the design of the house as well as the new patio.
The lawn on the original front garden was lower than the tarmac driveway, this meant that we had to build the levels up to create a level space.
“Progress report: “Just wanted to say, we are very pleased with the progress achieved today. Richard, although working solo, got a lot done. Not bad for an Oxford boy. No, he seriously worked hard. With any luck he will be able to return tomorrow to finish. He was here until 17:30, and only finished because he ran out of boards.”
