Common questions about driveway installation in Northamptonshire

Most driveway installations take 3-7 days depending on size and material choice. Block paving typically requires 5-7 days due to base preparation and laying time, whilst tarmac can often be completed in 3-4 days. Poor drainage or extensive groundworks may add 1-2 days to the timeline.
Block paving typically starts from £60 per square metre whilst resin-bound surfaces cost £80-120 per square metre. Block paving offers more design flexibility and easier repairs, but resin-bound provides a smoother, low-maintenance surface with excellent drainage. Both require proper groundworks for longevity.
Yes, we fully excavate existing surfaces and poor sub-base materials as part of every installation. Proper excavation to 200-250mm depth ensures adequate drainage and prevents future cracking or sinking. We handle all waste removal and disposal as part of the quoted price.
No, we install proper drainage systems including permeable materials or drainage channels to manage surface water effectively. All installations comply with sustainable drainage requirements, ensuring water drains into your property boundaries rather than onto neighbouring land or highways. This is particularly important in Northamptonshire's clay soil areas.
All of our work is backed by a workmanship guarantee, and we only use trusted materials that meet British Standards.
