Services

Six jobs. Same base under all of them.

Whatever the surface, the ground underneath is excavated, membraned and built up in compacted layers, and the water is given somewhere to go. Priced per square metre with everything in, guaranteed for ten years.

All six services

01

Block paving

Concrete and clay block paving laid in herringbone on a proper base with a contrasting border and a drained fall, in charcoal, silver, buff and brindle, for driveways that take a car every day for decades.

From £95 per square metre including excavation, sub-base, edging, drainage, blocks, kiln-dried sand and waste removal.

02

Resin bound driveways

Resin bound aggregate trowelled seamlessly over a new base or sound existing concrete or tarmac, permeable so it needs no soakaway, in a dozen stone blends, with the UV-stable resin that does not yellow.

From £110 per square metre including a new tarmac base, or from £68 per square metre over sound existing concrete or tarmac.

03

Tarmac driveways

Hot-rolled tarmac driveways on a full sub-base with a granite sett or block edging and a drained fall, for long drives, sloping drives and anyone who wants the toughest surface for the money.

From £70 per square metre including excavation, sub-base, edging, two-layer tarmac and drainage.

04

Patios and paths

Patios, paths, steps and low retaining walls in porcelain, Indian sandstone, Welsh limestone or setts, laid on a full mortar bed with a fall and a drain, with circles, borders and lighting if you want them.

From £120 per square metre in porcelain or sandstone including excavation, sub-base, full mortar bed, pointing and drainage.

05

Drainage, kerbs and edging

Linear channels, soakaways and gullies that stop a drive flooding the garage, council-approved dropped kerbs so you can legally cross the pavement, and edging and small retaining walls that hold everything in.

Linear channel and soakaway from £480.

06

Cleaning and sealing

Block paving and patios pressure-washed, re-sanded, re-pointed and sealed so they look new and stay that way, plus repairs to sunken areas, loose blocks and failed edges on drives we did and drives we did not.

Clean, re-sand and seal from £6 per square metre.

Not sure which surface?

Four styles, side by side, with the real numbers.

Block paving, resin bound, tarmac and slabs compared for cost per square metre, how long they last, whether they drain, what they need from you each year and what each is actually best for. Then bring the samples board to the measure and decide on your own drive.

Paving samples laid out on a board: charcoal and buff blocks, a resin bound sample, a granite sett, a porcelain slab and a sandstone slab

Nia visits, measures, works out the drainage and draws it. The price per square metre arrives within two days with the base, the edging, the drains and the skips in it.
