Everything you need to know before getting in touch

What types of driveways do you install?

We install block paving, tarmac, resin bound and printed concrete driveways. We can advise on the best surface for your property, budget and maintenance preferences during a free site visit.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?

In most cases no — driveways using permeable surfaces such as resin or block paving do not require planning permission. Solid impermeable surfaces may require permission in some areas. We will advise during the site visit.

How much does a new driveway cost?

Driveway costs vary depending on size, surface type and any additional work required such as dropped kerbs or drainage. Every project receives a detailed written quotation after a free site visit — no obligation.

How long does a driveway installation take?

A typical driveway installation takes 2 to 5 days depending on size and surface type. We provide a realistic timeline in every written quotation before work begins.

Can you install a dropped kerb as part of the driveway project?

Yes. We handle dropped kerb installations including all liaison with the local authority where required. We will advise on the process and likely timescales during the site visit.

How long will a new driveway last?

A properly installed driveway with a correct sub-base will last many years. Block paving typically lasts 20 to 30 years, tarmac 15 to 25 years and resin bound surfaces 15 to 25 years with basic maintenance.

Do you remove the existing driveway surface?

Yes. We handle full excavation and removal of the existing surface as part of every driveway installation. All waste is removed from site as part of the project.
