New Driveways

New driveways and full replacements in resin, block paving, gravel and tarmac, built properly from the ground up.

What's Involved

New Driveways, done properly

Your driveway is the first thing anyone sees, and it is the one part of the house that takes well over a tonne of car on it every single day. We build new driveways from scratch and replace tired ones that have sunk, cracked or simply given up.

Whatever surface you pick, what goes underneath it is what decides how long it lasts. Nobody ever sees the sub-base, the membrane or the concreted edgings, and they are exactly where cheaper jobs cut corners.

What's Included

What a typical job covers

One team covers the whole job from the excavation to the final sweep. Here is what is included as standard.

01

Full excavation

Dug out to 200mm to 300mm, deeper where the ground is soft.

02

Geotextile membrane

Keeps the subsoil and the stone above from ever mixing.

03

Sub-base & base course

100mm to 150mm of MOT Type 1 whacked in layers, plus a bound tarmac or concrete base wherever resin is going on top.

04

Concreted edge restraints

The step cheap jobs skip, and why their edges spread.

05

Drainage & falls

Water sent away from the house, not towards it.

06

EV charger ducting

Run before the surface goes down, while the drive is open.

How It Works

A clear path from first visit to final finish

No surprises and no disappearing acts. You always know who is coming, what is happening next and roughly how long it will take.

01

Free site visit & quote

John comes out, measures up, checks how the ground drains and talks through the options. You get a clear written price with no pressure.

02

Choosing your finish

We bring samples so you can see the colours and materials against your own house before you commit to anything.

03

Groundwork

We dig out to the right depth, lay and compact the sub-base in layers and concrete in the edgings. This is the part that decides how long it lasts.

04

Laying the surface

Resin, blocks or slabs laid to the correct depth by our own team, with drainage and borders finished properly.

05

Clean up & handover

Everything swept, all waste taken away and a walk round together so you are happy before we leave.

Good To Know

Questions we get a lot

How long does a new driveway take?

A typical domestic driveway takes three to seven days from breaking ground to finishing. Groundwork is the longest part.

Do I need a dropped kerb?

If you are creating a new access from the road, or widening one, you need a dropped kerb approved by your local highway authority. That is a separate council application with its own fee.

What is the best surface?

Resin bound for a smooth, low maintenance finish with nothing loose. Block paving for a traditional look and single block repairs. Gravel or tarmac where budget or size is the deciding factor.

Will you take the old driveway away?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old surface and all the spoil is included in the quote.
