Is it easy to clean?

All you need to do is give the driveway a sweep every now and then. You can also pressure wash it to remove any stubborn material. Applying a light

detergent to the surface of the driveway will fully restore its appearance.

Very happy and satisfied with my new patio and side path and gate, very courteous, polite and friendly, work completed within time frame despite the delays due to bad weather, even staying behind until 9pm to get the pavers layed in the rain, would highly recommend to friends and family, kept everything tidy and clean whilst carrying out the job

Kevin Male

As with many of my neighbours my lawn has been ruined by an infestation of leather jacket larvae. The answer was replace the lawn with artificial grass. The best and most professional quote was from Wayne Stanley of Smart Resin and Paving. I cannot praise him enough for his business manner, promptness, technical knowledge and skill and efficiency. He completed a perfect job in two days with two helpers, at a competitive price. He went further than any other operator by using only 1 piece of artificial turf thus avoiding any joins. Wayne displays great skill in all stages of construction especially in the final cutting to shape. After completion the whole area was cleaned to perfection an excellent job giving me a lawn to be proud of. I thoroughly recommend him.

Laying artificial lawn.

Wayne was recommended to me by a close friend. He came around to assess our driveway talk us through the process of how the job was going to be undertaken. Even bringing around sample materials. Wayne and his team worked very hard each day, keeping us updated step by step. Going on to complete our new driveway to a very high standard. Once the work was complete they did a full tidy up even cleaning the pavement and road with a industrial pressure washer which was very impressive. Would highly recommend.

After receiving a quote for a new patio we were expecting quite a long wait until work began but within a few days it had commenced and was completed a couple of days later. The quality is excellent and would definitely recommend.

Prompt and professional

Wayne and his team did an excellent job of removing, leveling and replacing our very large area of tired block paving; being front of house parking, side driveway and rear patio and paths. A mammoth effort to take up and dispose of the old paving was done in less than two days and, despite the delays and stresses I felt due to the awful weather we had to deal with, Wayne was nothing less than polite, patient and professional at all times. The final result with the sealant is just what I wanted and looks excellent. The quote was accurate and no issue was too much trouble.

Was going to just have my tired driveway sanded and sealed. Wayne came up with such a reasonable price and is very knowledgeable. Everything we discussed made perfect sense and he didnt mind us asking questions. The drive looks stunning for such a reasonable price and you can also tell it will have longevity with a liitle bit of very low maintenance, which was our aim. Aldo was a quick turnaround. Thankyou Wayne, Michael and the rest of the chaps.
