I ordered some shingle for my garden. Collier and Catchpole called me the day before my delivery, were super friendly and helpful, and the delivery was made with no fuss and they did exactly what I asked with regards to where to leave the huge bag of stones. Excellent service, thank you!

My delivery driver was excellent
My delivery driver was excellent. Went the extra mile to crane the MOT type 1 over the wall saving me extra work. Ordering was simple, communication was quick and clear. Can't ask for more.
