Driveways
Four surfaces, samples brought to your door and a free design so you can see it on your own house before you decide anything.
Pick it in your own driveway, not on a screen
Every driveway surface looks good in a photograph taken on the right day. The question is what it looks like against your brick, in your light, when it has been raining.
So we bring the samples to you. Resin blends, block ranges, gravels and setts, laid out on your own drive so you can see them properly and live with them for a few days if you want to.
Then we design it for you, free, and give you one price that does not move. All of that happens before you have committed to anything.
Free design
We will design your driveway or garden and show you what it will look like, before you have spent a penny or committed to anything.
Samples at your door
We bring the actual blocks, slabs and aggregates to the house so you can see them against your brick, in your light, in the rain.
One price, held
The figure we give you is the figure you pay. No day-rate creep, no extras invented halfway through, nothing added at the end.
Four surfaces we lay
Resin bound
Smooth, seamless and permeable. The premium option and the one most people want once they have seen it.
Block paving
Hard-wearing, repairable and available in every colour going. Still the most practical choice for many houses.
Tarmac
Fast, cost-effective and right at home on a long approach or a shared drive.
Stabilised gravel
The traditional look without the gravel ending up on the pavement and in the lawn.
Drainage and SuDS
Where the water goes, what the rules actually say, and how we deal with it.
Patios and terraces
The same build-up thinking applied to the back garden.
Everything below is included in a block paved driveway
Hard wearing, endlessly repairable and available in more colours and textures than you will want to choose from. We will bring the samples to you.
- A free design so you can see it before you commit
- A home visit with real samples, at a time that suits you
- Your old surface taken up and taken away
- Rock, concrete and old bases broken out at no extra charge
- One price, agreed up front, with nothing added afterwards
- A tidy site every evening and no skip left on your road
- A five year guarantee, in writing, that transfers if you sell
Depths shown are our standard for a domestic car drive. Where there is a van, a horsebox or soft ground, we increase them and say so in the proposal rather than quietly not.
One price, and this is what is in it
A driveway price from us is one figure. It is not a starting point with a list of likely extras underneath it, and it does not move once we have shaken hands on it.
- Your free design and the visit with samples
- The old drive taken up and taken away
- Rock, concrete and old bases broken out at no extra charge
- Drainage sorted properly, so you are not left with puddles
- Manhole covers reset or hidden under the new surface
- Everything washed down and cleared before we leave
- A five year guarantee certificate, in writing
What a typical week looks like
- Day oneWe arrive when we said we would, protect the house and the access, and the old drive starts coming up.
- Day twoThe rest of it comes out and goes away by grab. No skip left on your road.
- Day threeEdges go in and the base is built up and levelled. The least interesting day and the one that decides how long it lasts.
- Day fourYour chosen surface goes down and it finally starts to look like the design.
- Day fiveDrainage connected, everything washed down, and we walk round it with you before we hand over the guarantee.

Can you lay over my existing driveway?

Do you do dropped kerbs?
Free design, free visit, free samples
We measure up, talk it through and send a written proposal with the build-up, the programme and one whole price. No pressure and no follow-up sales calls.
