What Our Clients Say

Andrew Beard - November 2025

I chose this firm after obtaining quotations from three contractors on the WaterSafe list, and they have provided an excellent service to us. They arrived on the date promised several weeks in advance, and completed laying a new water supply pipe along our 50m. shared driveway well within their estimated scale. The quality of the work was excellent, they kept us fully informed on progress, and the disruption was kept to a minimum. They left the site tidy on completion, and we and our neighbours were very pleased about the lack of disturbance and the quality of workmanship. I have no hesitation in recommending them for this kind of work.

Lynda Roberts - September 2025

I chose Ashley’s company to lower a kerb and put in a driveway and I’m so pleased that I did.
I’ve been so impressed with the whole team, including Cara’s great communication. Ashley and Wayne have done a first rate job and exceeded my expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

Caroline Miles - June 2025

Very impressed with Ashley’s company. Quoted promptly, had a real can do outlook to it all. Dug out and rebuilt a 15ft wall of granite boulders and earth that collapsed, with baskets to keep holding the field back. Dug it out from the field above. His two men were very tidy, good humoured and hard working. We have been really impressed and will recommend this firm to others. Very fairly priced as well. Proper delighted.

Morwenna - Sep 2023

I have genuinely never been so impressed by a company, especially in Cornwall where there can be a ‘dreckly’ attitude! Cara and Ashley responded to all my queries in lightning time and Ashley was out to give me a quote the day after my initial inquiry. Less than a week since getting the ball rolling and all the work is done to perfection. They have replaced the patio like they were never here. I literally cannot recommend A Burstow highly enough. If only all Cornish workmen where this reliable!!

Liam - July 2025

Hired a 3T mini digger for a few weeks, and it couldn’t have been a smoother process if we’d prayed for it. Ashley is straight forward, no fuss, does what he says, is flexible and can get over little issues like off-hiring the digger when it was locked by dug trenches, Ash just figured it out. Legend. Best prices, best equipment around. COuldn’t have been better, 10/10

Clare Jones - June 2024

We are really pleased with the dropped kerb and concrete area to extend the driveway. The work was carefully planned and organised and we were impressed with the attention to detail to complete the work to a high standard.All the staff we met were friendly and helpful
We would recommend A Burstow plant hire.
