Find a local, reliable driveway specialist near you

Thinking of paving a new driveway? Or maybe you need your driveway repaired? Either way, you’ve come to the right place. Driveway specialists can help you transform your driveway into a functional space that’s still great to look at.

Factors to consider when choosing a driveway company

Avoid stress and costly repairs down the line by hiring a skilled driveway specialist to help you out. Look out for driveway installers that:

  1. Are a skilled company with a strong history of high quality projects
  2. Have all the licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
  4. Are offering the driveway service you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it by
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the driveway quote with other companies

A local driveway installer is more likely to respond quickly as they’ll be right around the corner and ready to help.

What can a driveway specialist help you with?

A nice driveway can transform your home’s outward appearance, turning it into a welcoming space for you to come back to. What’s more, it will eliminate the stress of searching for parking after a long day at work, as you’ll always have your own spot to park your car in. Investing in a new driveway can also increase the value of your home and make it look more appealing to prospective buyers or guests.

A driveway paver can help you with:

  • Paving a new driveway (block paved driveways, gravel driveways, tarmac driveways, concrete driveways, and resin driveways)
  • Repairing your driveway
  • Adding driveway decorations such as driveway edging
  • Expanding your driveway and gaining off-street parking, or extra parking spaces

Driveway pavers don’t just pave around your home to open up space for parking. They can also pave over your front garden to reduce your garden maintenance tasks whilst still repurposing your lawn space.

Looking after your driveway is really important too, as weed growth can get out of hand and potholes can cause damage to your car. If you have a driveway and it’s looking a little worse for wear, a driveway repair specialist can get it back into shape.

Whether you want a dropped kerb driveway or simply need to repair a pothole in your existing driveway, speak to a specialist today to receive a free driveway quote.

How much does it cost to hire a driveway company?

Illustration of a row of houses with driveways labelled with the cost to install a new driveway according to the driveway material

How much you end up spending on a new driveway will depend on the driveway material you choose. The most common driveway materials include resin, concrete, gravel, tarmac, and block paving. The size of your driveway and where you live in the UK will also have an impact on costs.

The average cost of a driveway installation is between £6,150 and £17,500.

For more information on driveway costs according to materials and sizes, read our 2023 driveway installation cost guide, or post a job today to request a free quote from a local driveway specialist.

Do you need planning permission for a new driveway?

In most cases, you don’t need planning permission for a new or replacement driveway of any size, as long as you use a permeable (porous) material such as gravel, tarmac, block paving, concrete, or resin. You do however need to ensure that your driveway has the correct drainage installed in order for your paving to be considered permitted development.

Impermeable driveways of over 5 square metres will need planning permission, which you can apply for through the Planning Portal website. Read our planning permission guide for more information.

Questions to ask before you hire a driveway specialist

Are you licensed and insured?

Make sure to ask your driveway installer what insurance they have before you hire them. While it’s not a requirement, it’s a good idea for your tradesperson to have public liability insurance to cover you and them against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. This will guarantee protection for both parties and ensure your paving specialist is legally compliant.

How many years of experience do you have?

Knowing how much experience your driveway installer has will allow you to pick a tradesperson who you are confident has sufficient expertise to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a driveway expert through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.

How long will the job take?

Knowing what your project’s estimated timeline is will help you set realistic expectations about how long your driveway renovation will take to complete.

How much will the job cost?

Asking how much the job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.

Do you use subcontractors? If so, are they licensed and insured?

If your driveway company is planning on using subcontractors, then it’s a good idea to confirm the qualifications and insurance coverage of everyone who will be working on the project, so make sure you ask before you hire.

What type of driveway material do you recommend?

Asking about driveway materials is a good idea, as there are plenty of options for you to choose from, ranging from tarmac to resin. A driveway repair and installation specialist will be able to recommend a suitable material for your home. You can also read our 2023 driveway cost guide which covers the pros and cons of all the main driveway materials, as well as their prices.

Did the job next day. Was initially after getting it slabbed but considered having loose stone due to budget and went with that in end to be more cost effective. There wasnt alot of choices/samples etc but happy enough with what was offered. Job agreed by word of mouth only but did a decent job. Not high end finish but I didnt pay top whack for the job either so I feel I got good value for money. The guys all pleasant and did the job quickly. Looks so much better than before so I am pleased with it.
