Driveways

Block paving, resin bound and gravel driveways laid to last.

Overview

Our Driveways Service

A driveway takes daily traffic, standing water and the weather all year round, so the groundwork underneath matters as much as the surface on top. We excavate to the right depth, lay and compact a stable sub-base, and set levels so surface water runs to a soakaway or drainage channel rather than pooling or draining towards the house. On top of that base we lay the surface you choose, block paving, resin bound or gravel, with properly restrained edges so nothing spreads or sinks over time.

We carry out driveways across Berkshire & Surrey, including Woking, Cobham, Henley-on-Thames, Guildford, Windsor, Crowthorne, Ascot, Winkfield, Weybridge, Sunbury-on-Thames.

The Process

How It Works

  1. 1

    Survey and quote

    We visit, measure up, check drainage and access, and give you a written, itemised quote.

  2. 2

    Excavate and prepare

    We dig out to the correct depth and lay a compacted sub-base built for the traffic the drive will take.

  3. 3

    Drainage and edging

    We set the falls, fit drainage where it is needed and install restrained edges to hold the surface.

  4. 4

    Lay and finish

    We lay your chosen surface, make the cut-ins, and clean down before we hand back.

Why Us

Why Choose Us

A few reasons customers across Berkshire & Surrey choose us:

  • Checkatrade members, so our reviews and work are there for you to check
  • Based in Bracknell and working across Berkshire & Surrey
  • Both domestic driveways and commercial surfacing
  • We prepare the base properly rather than surfacing over a weak foundation

What Affects the Price

Every job is different, so we quote after we've seen the site. The main factors are:

  • The size of the driveway and how much excavation is needed
  • The surface you choose (block paving, resin bound or gravel)
  • Access for machinery and how the old surface and spoil are removed
  • Any drainage, kerbing or steps the site needs

FAQ

Driveways Questions

Which driveway surface lasts longest?

Block paving and resin bound both give a long-lasting, low-maintenance finish when laid on a proper base. Gravel is the most economical and drains freely. We will talk you through the trade-offs for your drive when we quote.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?

A permeable surface such as resin bound or gravel that drains on site usually does not need planning permission. A non-permeable surface over five square metres that drains to the road may. We will flag anything to check when we survey.

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Bracknell and cover the wider Berkshire & Surrey area, including Woking, Cobham, Henley-on-Thames, Guildford, Windsor and Ascot. If you are just outside these towns, get in touch and we will let you know.

Do you take away the old driveway?

Yes. Excavation, removal of the old surface and clearing the site are all included in the quote.
