We took 4 quotes and this was the best value for money. All staff involved were exceptionally helpful, professional and friendly. I am delighted with the finished product and would highly recommend Tarmasters to anyone.
Mr Stuart Logan
Fully satisfied with project from start to finish, from initial contact to completion of the contract. Everything was completed with timed precision and a member of your team came back to site to inspect and verify we were happy with the works. Thank you!
Mr Alan Roberts
We are delighted with every aspect of work, from the surveying stage through to construction, completion, and the aftercare we received. I look forward to working with your team again.
Phil Marshall, Plymouth Academy Trust
Thank you very much for the good job which you have done for us in repairing the surrounds of the church and the car park, it looks great!

First, may I say how pleased the neighbours and I are with the resurfacing. May I also add how pleasant the workers were, unusual in the trade to have such helpful and hardworking staff!
Arthur, residential client
What an absolute pleasure to work with Sam and the crew. They are efficient, fast, friendly and a good laugh to be around. I have notified my regional manager and we look SO forward to working with you in the near future!
Thank you to you and your site team for all the effort in delivering Ladysmith Junior School and South Molton Community College successfully on time. The Client (Education Funding Agency), their advisors Acadis and the schools themselves are delighted with the end result. Please pass on our thanks to your site team, your input and efforts have been greatly appreciated on what at times has been a demanding scheme.

Stover School
Just to say thank you for your efforts (and speed) on the Woodlands Park Site. Positive feedback from the park and all looks good in the photos I have seen!
All the residents appear very pleased with the works carried out on the drive. Many thanks and take care in these strange times.
St Ronans Property Management Company Ltd
Just a little note to let you know, a job well done. The boys were brilliant, you’ve got a great team.
Bob Hussey
Thanks for all you hard work lining this up. I know that Ben had to put in a lot of work to satisfy the local planning authority's requirements, partly due to the location on a narrow busy commuter route. The rest of the team did a fantastic job - it looks great. Thank you very much for persevering with this job as I know it was not easy.
Jon Couch
Our drive is looking brilliant. It was great to have it completed yesterday, especially a week ahead of time. Thank you.
David Harding
Thank you very much for the works done, everyone is so pleased with it even passers-by. The workmen were a great bunch and a credit to your company. High recommend!
Stuie
Thank you for your incredibly kind donation of the labour, materials, and machinery which were involved with tarmacking the back lane and helped towards the build of our new extension and access to our property. The extension was built to ensure that Frazer has all he needs as he battles with Late Infantile Battens Disease. The development of the extension has already proved invaluable. Thank you on behalf of Frazer and our family.
