What we install
Four surfaces. One standard of build.
Whatever you choose on top, the work underneath is the same: full excavation, geotextile membrane, 150mm compacted Type 1, edge restraints set in concrete, and drainage that meets SuDS regulations. The pretty bit is the last 5%.
Most popular
Permeable
Resin-bound
UV-stable, permeable, seamless finish. Hand-trowelled over a porous base. Wide colour range — from natural cotswold gravels to deep basalt blacks.
Best value
Tarmac
Hot-laid surface over a proper base course. Hand-edged with block borders or kerbs. Ideal for longer drives, car parks, and commercial entrances.
Budget-friendly
Gravel driveways
Cotswold buff, granite chippings or graded shingle laid over a properly compacted sub-base with steel or timber edging. A clean, classic budget option.
The build
Five stages. One driveway built to last.
We don't rush the bit you can't see — the sub-base is what stops a driveway dipping, cracking or pooling water two winters from now. Job timings depend on the size and complexity of your drive; we'll give you a realistic timeline with your quote.
01
Dig & remove
Full excavation to depth. Old surface, roots, soft spots — all out. Spoil cleared as we go.
Stage 102
Sub-base
Geotextile membrane, then compacted MOT Type 1 in layers. Whacker-plated to a firm, level base.
Stage 203
Drainage & edges
Linear drains where needed, soakaway if required, edge restraints bedded in concrete.
Stage 304
Surface laid
Your chosen surface — paved, poured, hot-laid or gravelled — installed by the same crew start to finish.
Stage 405
Finish & clean
Kiln-dried sand, sealer if applicable, full site clean. We don't leave until you're happy.
Stage 5How it's built
The cheap quote you got? Look underneath it.
Most driveway problems — sinking, cracking, weeds, puddles — come from what was (or wasn't) put down before the surface. Here's what proper driveway construction looks like — we'll walk you through these details on your quote.
✓FULL DIG
Full excavation to depth
We dig down properly. No laying over old patio, no shortcut depths. Spoil removed and the site left clean each evening.
✓MEMBRANE
Geotextile membrane
Heavy-duty membrane across the entire dig. Stops sub-base mixing with the subsoil — the #1 reason cheap drives sink.
✓TYPE 1
Compacted MOT Type 1
Laid and whacker-plated in layers. Hard, level, true. This is what your driveway actually sits on.
✓EDGES
Concrete-bedded edge restraints
Block edges bedded and haunched in a proper concrete mix — not buttered in mortar. Stops the perimeter spreading over time.
✓DRAINAGE
Drainage to local regs
Either fully permeable (resin/permeable block/gravel) or with linear drainage to a soakaway. Either way — no planning issues, no standing water.
✓QUALITY
Workmanship we stand by
Top-quality craftsmanship is the whole reason we get repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals. If anything's not right with our work, we'll come back and put it right.

Common questions
The stuff customers ask before they book.
If something here doesn't cover it, just give us a call — we'd rather have a five-minute chat than have you guess.
How much does a driveway cost in Kent?
Every drive is different — size, access, surface choice, drainage requirements and ground conditions all affect the price. We give a fixed written quote after a quick visit, not a per-square-metre guess over the phone. The quote you get is the price you pay.
How long will my driveway take to install?
It depends on the size of the drive and the surface you choose. Most domestic driveways are completed in a few working days; larger jobs or full landscaping projects take longer. We'll give you a realistic start and finish date with your quote.
Do I need planning permission?
If the new drive is over 5m² and uses a non-permeable surface (standard block, tarmac) without dedicated drainage, yes. If it's permeable (resin-bound, permeable block, gravel) or drains to a soakaway, no. We design every drive with drainage that meets local regs so planning is straightforward.
Block paving, resin, tarmac or gravel — which should I choose?
Block paving for the most flexible look and easy repair. Resin-bound for a smooth, modern, weed-free, permeable finish. Tarmac for longer driveways or where budget matters most. Gravel for a clean, classic, budget-friendly option that drains naturally. We'll walk you through the trade-offs on your specific drive.
What happens if there's a problem after the job?
Top-quality craftsmanship is what we trade on. If there's ever a concern with our workmanship, talk to us — we'll come back and put it right. Specific terms are discussed and agreed before the job starts.
Do I need to be home?
Only for the initial quote visit, and ideally for the start of the build (we like to walk the site with you on day one). After that we can crack on while you're at work.
