Rivar Sand and Gravel Newbury

I have recently carried out a significant home garden landscaping project due to the current situation of being in lockdown. The team at Rivar Thatcham have gone above and beyond and helped with every part of the project with supplying rapid deliveries and willingness to be creative with a good deal. Over the course of 2/3weeks they delivered 39 tonnes of material from soil to gravel etc, 110sqm turf, 139 slabs. I would also like to call out Craig the branch manager especially for all the support with deliveries and quick turnarounds. I couldn’t recommend Rivar and the team enough. Even when times are challenging and social distancing is in place they still delivered and were incredibly professional throughout. Great experience!!

Excellent service! We ordered 12 tons gravel, 4 tons topsoil and many bags of compost just before the lock-down. We were nervous that they wouldn't be delivered, but we got excellent help by phone and the deliveries were made on time despite limited staff and the uncertainties of the early lock-down. Thanks to Rivar we've been able to proceed with our garden projects. Much appreciated!

Able to telephone order mulch for garden, click and collect, and plastic free as used own boxes. Will be back again soon.

Majorly overpriced. Rude staff and when problems get brought up management brush under the carpet and don’t want to know. Website is very old and misleading. Opening times differ at weekends from week to week. Asked to speak to the manager on a Saturday and young lad said that he had finished early so had to wait until Tuesday when he was next back in! Not good enough in many ways.

All use these guys for a good variety of gravels, building sand, sharp sand, ballast and a fantastic compost! Very reasonable prices per ton especially if you collect as I do (they also deliver cheaply.) They also carry a massive range of stone, slate and ceramic flooring tiles, sets and much more!
