Driveways built on a proper base

Striped replacement lawn beside block paving in Norfolk

A driveway takes the weight of a car every day, so what matters most is the part you never see: the depth of the dig and the sub-base underneath. Alongside our lawn work we lay new driveways and renew old ones for homes across Norwich and Norfolk.

We dig out, build and compact the base properly, set the levels so water drains away, and finish the edges neatly where the drive meets the lawn and the borders.

What our driveway work includes

We visit first to measure up, check the levels and drainage, and talk through the finish you want, whether that is block paving, gravel or something else, then give you a clear quote.

If the lawn beside the drive needs replacing too, we can do both in one visit, so the edge between them is finished properly.

Typical work includes:

  • New driveways and parking areas
  • Widening an existing drive
  • Replacing a cracked or sunken drive
  • Digging out and removing the old surface
  • A compacted sub-base built to take a car
  • Edging, and falls set so water drains away

Why book with us for your driveway

We are a local Norwich team, fully insured and licensed to carry waste, so the old surface and the spoil leave with us. We explain what needs doing and what it will cost before work starts, and if something comes to light once the ground is open, we talk it through with you first.

Send us a photo of the drive and a rough idea of its size, and we will come back with honest advice and a free quote.
