What is the best surface for a driveway?
The right surface depends on your property, budget and style preferences.
Tarmac is durable, cost-effective and low maintenance, making it ideal for tarmac drives.
Block paving offers a decorative finish with a wide range of styles.
Resin-bound surfaces provide a modern appearance with excellent drainage.
Flagging and paving can create a more traditional look.
We’re happy to recommend the most suitable option for your property.
How long does a new driveway take to complete?
Most domestic driveway installations take between 2 and 7 days, depending on the size of the project, weather conditions and the type of surface being installed.
Larger commercial projects, such as housing developments and industrial estates, may take longer.
How soon can I use my new driveway?
This depends on the material used:
- Tarmac driveways are usually ready for light use within 24 to 48 hours.
- Resin-bound surfaces generally cure within 24 hours.
- Block paving can often be used sooner once installation is complete.
Do you repair existing driveways and surfaces?
Yes. We carry out repairs, resurfacing and groundworks for damaged or worn driveways, private roads, paths, driveways and footpaths, and commercial surfaces.
Are your driveways weather resistant?
Can you improve drainage issues?
Absolutely. Poor drainage can lead to standing water and surface damage over time.
We can install appropriate drainage solutions and recommend permeable surface options where required.
