/ 01 — What's involved

Subbase first.
Everything else follows.

Most driveway problems trace back to a skipped or shallow subbase. We excavate to the right depth, compact properly, set edge restraints, and get the falls right for drainage — then the blocks go down.

01

Block paving

Our most-requested driveway finish — durable, repairable, and available in a range of colours and patterns.

02

Groundwork & drainage

Correct falls, soakaways or permeable options where needed so water goes where it's supposed to, not into your house.

03

Kerbs & edging

Proper edge restraints so the driveway holds its line for years, not months.

Walton — full driveway
& side path.

September 2025 — a large block-paving job in Walton. Lawn replaced with a 2-3 car driveway, and the old concrete slabs and crazy paving down the side of the house swapped for tidy new block paving. Refreshed the whole look of the property.

/ 04 — Patios, too

Patios,
any style.

Driveways aren't the only thing we lay. Natural stone, porcelain, block paviour — whatever suits the house, laid to the same standard: proper excavation, a compacted subbase and the right falls for drainage.

/ 06 — FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?

If the new driveway is at the front of the house and covers more than 5 square metres, planning permission is usually needed unless you use permeable paving or drain the water to a lawn or border rather than the road. We'll advise on the right approach when we visit.

What's involved in a block-paved driveway?

Excavation to the right depth, a properly compacted subbase, edge restraints, and correct falls for drainage before the blocks go down. Skipping the subbase is the most common reason driveways fail early — we don't cut that corner.

Do you lay patios as well as driveways?

Yes — natural stone, porcelain, block paviour, whatever suits the house and budget. Same principles as a driveway: proper excavation, a compacted subbase and the right falls for drainage, so it stays flat and doesn't pool.
