We had Tony Blackford Landscaping complete a Crazy Paving job for our front porch. The job they did was beautiful! It was exactly how we wanted it to turn out. The guys were very professional, polite and tidy. The vision they had for the pavers was bang on and it looks fantastic. I would highly recommend.

Extremely happy with the quality and service that I received from Tony Blackford Landscaping. After Covid-19 and having to look at our wasteland of a backyard for months on end my partner and I decided it was time to actually do something with it. I had started to have a go at it myself but it was difficult to get supplies during lockdown and, let's be honest, I'm pretty lazy and was more interested in getting on the beers. Understandably, Tony and the gang were up to their ears in work after lockdown, but we weren't in any rush to get it done. We were happy with the quote and booked in for end

Tony and Bernie gave us the garden we always wanted and imagined, but one we couldn't deliver ourselves. Their crew is professional, their ideas are clever, they took us through the process step by step, giving us advice on the difference between what we thought might look good as opposed to what actually looks good. The compliments we get on the garden are many and testament to the good work these guys do.
