What our clients are saying ...

I used Hooper and Sons to lay artificial grass and they sourced a lawn of high quality at a very competitive price and carried out the work when they said they would. Their workmen were excellent and worked non-stop all day.

The eventual finish was superb and far better than I could ever have imagined. Hooper and Sons have transformed our garden from an eye-sore we avoided using to a stunning area we now use on a daily basis. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Hooper and Sons

Gary Head -

Hooper and Sons dug a very large hole for me. It was a great success and I now spend many happy hours in it. Their slogan "We can dig it"is not based on hot air but on firm foundations, which they will also put in very skillfully if necessary.

Jools Holland - OBE DL

I would like to thank you and your excellent workers for the speed the works were completed in and the exceptional quality of the work involved. My wife has told me that your staff were true gentlemen and kept her informed regarding every stage of the works.

Even when the works were completed my wife wanted to give the workers a tip for their work but they refused this (very unusual in this day and age). If you ever need any references I will be happy to supply these to any prospective customers Best Regards.

To Richard, Regarding the crossover and drive in space to my property at South Hill Road. I would like to put in writing how pleased I am with Hooper and Sons as a whole. Originally, I had rang 30 companies in regard to the job in hand and had the misfortune to deal with rude, unreliable staff and firms. I organized 3 quotes and had no shows until I rang Hooper's. John was our point of contact and I decided that I had found the right people for the job.

I was well looked after and guided through the minefield which is K.C.C. When the work was started I found everybody to be efficient, polite, helpful, hard working and smiles too! I had little contact with the gang but this was largely down to their efficiency on getting on with it and knowing what was to be done. All in all I already have and will continue to recommend this great company. With many thanks to you all for a good job done! Thanks again
