I have no hesitation in recommending Home County Paving & Surfacing. In fact, after repairing my block-pave driveway, I’ve already asked them to look another job. They offer quick, professional advice with excellent communication and top-quality workmanship. They went above and beyond to make the job smooth, fast, and hassle-free - and at a competitive price. Really nice people, and I’d 100% use them again. Highly recommended!

In the last 10 years the business has diversified and now accommodates a scheme of works within construction from kitchens to bathrooms, gardens to bedrooms, fire and flood damaged properties and more. Gareth employs several staff and subcontracts to NICEIC registered Electricians and GAS SAFE registered gas engineers. Therefore, GMS can offer project managing and the client only needs to converse with one trade [GMS] rather than multiple. Thus, taking the stress out of the job.
