Picture pulling into your Keston home through an entrance that echoes the area's village heritage. Cobblestone transforms ordinary tarmac into something that genuinely enhances BR2's leafy character.

Keston's mix of period cottages and contemporary builds creates unique opportunities for cobblestone installations. Those generous plot sizes common around Heathfield Road practically beg for sweeping curved drives that make the most of natural stone's flexibility. Many properties here still feature original gravel or tired concrete that's ready for something more distinguished.
Each stone gets hand-selected for colour consistency before installation begins with proper excavation down to stable ground. Foundation depth varies depending on whether you're dealing with Keston's clay patches or the sandier soil near Hayes Common. Modern polymeric jointing compounds lock everything together while allowing natural drainage - crucial given how water tends to pool on the sloping drives typical of properties backing onto Keston Common.
Twenty-three years working across BR2 means knowing which suppliers provide frost-resistant granite that handles our weather. Local recommendations speak louder than advertising - just ask anyone on Westerham Road about their installation from 2019.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Standard BR2 properties typically see costs between £95-140 per square metre, though intricate patterns or premium Belgian blocks push towards £180. A typical 60m² Keston driveway runs £7,000-9,500 including groundwork.
Absolutely - from the grand entrances near Keston Mark to modest Hayes cottages. Recent projects include Lakes Road, Croydon Road, and several properties adjoining Farnborough village.
Most BR2 driveways complete within 8-12 working days, weather permitting. Larger estates near Holwood might stretch to three weeks if incorporating features like turning circles.
Full decade coverage protects against frost damage, settlement issues, and joint failure. This includes free annual inspections specifically checking for problems common to Keston's variable ground conditions.
Definitely - cobblestone's segmented nature adapts brilliantly around mature oaks and chestnuts. Unlike solid surfaces, individual stones accommodate root movement without cracking, preserving both your investment and those magnificent trees.
