Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our Driveways services answered.
How long does a driveway installation take?
Most driveways take 3–7 days depending on size and material. Block paving might need a couple extra days to set properly. We’ll give you a clear timeline after visiting your site.
Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?
Usually not for standard residential driveways. If you need a dropped kerb or live on a listed road, there might be a few extra steps. We’ll check everything for you during the consultation.
What materials work best in Dorset?
Block paving and resin-bound are brilliant for our wet weather – they drain well and look fantastic. Gravel suits rural spots perfectly. We’ll recommend what matches your home and lifestyle.
What guarantee do you offer?
Every driveway comes with our full workmanship guarantee, plus manufacturer warranties on all materials. We stand by our work and explain everything clearly with your quote.
Do you remove my old driveway?
Yes – we handle the full demolition, excavation and waste disposal. Your garden stays protected with sheets and boards, and we leave everything neat and tidy.
Can you repair my existing driveway?
Absolutely! We fix cracks, re-level sunken areas, replace damaged blocks, and refresh the whole surface. Often much quicker and easier than starting from scratch.

Excellent job
Excellent job. So pleased with the work carried out to complete a small patio. Had full confidence in Paul from first visit and he was quick to quote and book in a time. Paul was also very helpful in finding matching sandstone paving. We’re delighted with the result and definitely recommend.
