We are a small business based in the heart of Warwickshire offering block paving driveways, gravel driveways, landscaping, and tarmac services. Our work has taken us from Chipping Campden to Southam, and from Balsall Common to Stratford-upon-Avon including Leamington and Warwick. We have been established since 1986, showing that we have survived the difficulties experienced in running a small business for over 30 years.
The business began with us supplying and laying turf, building rockeries, and planting trees and shrubs. That quickly expanded into water features, brick walls, fencing and patios. We soon realised that we had to move with changing trends in landscaping and bought more machinery, which led us into groundwork and driveways, either tarmac (asphalt), block paving or gravel.

Services
We specialise in the highest quality driveways including tarmac, block paving and gravel driveways. We undertake all landscaping projects. We are fully insured and offer free quotations. We are Warwickshire County Council Approved Contractors. Thank you for a job very well done. The men were a pleasure to have working on my property, nothing was too much trouble and they were extremely tidy workers.
As with any driveway, the quality and depth of road stone (hardcore) used and securing all the edges with concrete, is very important. Our tarmac driveways are dug out at least 8. We bring in 5" of MOT Type I road stone, which when compacted reduces to 4". Our road stone is guaranteed and frost proof.
An important part of any driveway is the depth it is dug out, and the depth and the quality of the road stone (or hardcore) used. Our road stone is guaranteed and frost proof. It does not contain crushed brick or glass. Our block paving driveways are dug out at least 9. We bring in 5" of MOT Type I road stone, which when compacted reduces to 4".
We have permission to work on pavements in order to create a new vehicle access or to widen an existing entrance. This gives customers easy access across the pavement into their property and also should prohibit vehicles parking across the new entrance. We have to dig out from road to boundary, remove the old kerbs, replace the old kerbs with new kerbs and secure them with concrete at their new lower level.
We carry out all aspects of landscaping. All our slabs are laid on a hardcore base and most slabs are then laid on a solid screed base. Slabs are properly pointed up between each one, either by hand or by using a jointing compound. Slabs can either be made or concrete or of natural stone. This could be limestone, or sandstone, or slate.

From the beginning of the process to the end we have received a 5 star service. They did the job when they said they were going to, were very reasonably priced, very professional and very friendly. I shared several email exchanges with Caroline who organised everything and is very familiar with the documents required for a dropped kerb and made life very easy for us. Can't recommend this company enough and they are recommended by the council too. It was a very quick turnaround too.

Landscapes Unlimited are simply amazing.
Since we first approached them they have kept in contact touch with us to ensure that they delivered what we wanted, fully understood the work that would be done and advised us on the materials that would give a finished product that would be in keeping with our property, (a thatched cottage).
The quality of their workmanship and attention to details is to be highly recommended

We had used Caroline’s company for a drive at our old house about 15 years ago. The company were very helpful and when we left it block drive looked as good the day as when it was laid ,with no fading or sinking.
So when we moved last year we had no hesitation in using the company again. David and his team were just as helpful and responsive as before and the result was excellent .Caroline had suggested a design / colour which really worked well and complimented the house. We would recommend the company to friends or acquaintances

I can’t recommend Caroline at Landscapes Unlimited strongly enough. She was incredibly responsive and efficient in coming out to look at the work required and provide a reasonable quote.
Caroline was very friendly and provided ideas and advise which was very greatly received.
The work started on the planned date. Caroline’s team were amazing; friendly, tidy, efficient.
There were some materials which weren’t used and the final invoice was adjusted accordingly which was a nice surprise.
I am highly delighted with my new drive, it’s given the house real kerb appeal and the whole process

Very happy to recommend Landscapes Unltd. We have just had our large driveway redone and are extremely pleased with the end result. It is of excellent quality and the company have been professional throughout. Caroline and the team were a pleasure to deal with. Reliable and responsive throughout the whole process and the team who did the drive were extremely hardworking. The drive was competitively priced and well worth the money.

Caroline and the team did a fabulous job on our driveway and front garden. I had an outline idea of what I wanted and Caroline was fantastic at bringing this to life, helping me choose the right block paving and slabs to work best with the house. The team who installed it were fantastic, helpful, polite and a job to have at our home. All visitors to the house since have commented on the great result, even some of delivery drivers dropping off parcels. I would recommend them to anyone, you will not be disappointed.
