How to Choose a Driveway Block Paving Contractor

There are many benefits of using a professional Nationwide block paving contractor when you decide to have a block paved driveway. It’s advised not to go for the cheapest quote, as like most things, you get what you pay for.  More often than not, the cheapest quote is that for a reason, such as they are quite likely to be unreliable as will often cut corners and not do the block paving driveway surfacing properly.  A good job starts with proper ground preparation to ensure long-lasting paving that will not sink; this step is often sacrificed by lower-priced firms.

Trusted Block Paving Contractor Checklist:

Are they insured?

Check that a contractor has public liability insurance, so that if any accidents occur as a result of their work you can claim against them. Reputable firms will have £5m.

Do they provide a free guarantee?

A reputable firm will always offer a free guarantee to give you the peace of mind that you should expect as this is not a cheap process..

Do they have testimonials?

Don’t just take a company’s word for how great they are, always ask for any testimonials they may have.  Obviously, most contractors will only let you have the positive ones so asking friends and family for recommendations is also a good idea.

Do they provide written quotes?

Always insist that quotes are given in writing, as verbal quotes are completely worthless.  Trustworthy contractors are unlikely to give you a written quote there and then so ask them to email or post the quote to you.

Can they show you a portfolio?

Check their previous work to get an idea of the standard of craftsmanship and to see if they have completed similar projects before so that you know what to expect.

Are they members of any trade associations?

Credible companies will be members of trade associations such as the Marshalls Approved Contractor scheme and have the necessary qualifications from recognisable bodies like City & Guilds. Before becoming approved, their quality of work will be scrutinised by experts who will check that their work complies with the high standards required.  Membership can be checked by calling the relevant association.

Do they have the knowledge and experience to do the job correctly?

When potential firms visit your property to provide a quote, be sure to ask them plenty of questions to ensure they know what they are talking about.  Also, be sure to check their website; the best firms will display their knowledge by providing useful tips and advice, free of charge.
