A well-laid concrete driveway makes parking easier, keeps the frontage tidy and adds value. We install driveways across SM2 and SM3, with designs that suit everything from Cheam Village approaches to wider plots near Nonsuch Park. From brushed finishes for extra grip to decorative pattern imprinted concrete, we tailor the look to your home. Every job includes careful levels and drainage planning for a clean, long-lasting result.
Cheam’s mix of period cottages, 1930s houses and executive homes calls for different detailing and proportions. For 1930s driveways in North Cheam we often widen entrances, rebuild edging and create a practical turning area. On larger properties around Worcester Park and Ewell, we can add contrasting borders and discreet drainage channels. Our team is local enough to respond quickly, with our base around 20 minutes away.
We start with a site survey, confirm access and parking, then agree a clear specification and finish. Sub-base preparation, reinforcement where required, and accurate falls are treated as non-negotiables. We keep the site organised, protect neighbouring boundaries and provide aftercare guidance for curing and sealing. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
We’re familiar with access constraints around Cheam Village and the narrower approaches near Lumley Chapel. Ground conditions vary, so we adjust excavation depth and compaction to suit, then set falls to move water away from the house. We also plan deliveries and parking to minimise disruption on residential roads. If your property sits within a conservation area, we’ll advise on finish choices that look appropriate.

For most concrete driveways in the Cheam area, budget around £50–£100 per square metre depending on thickness, finish and groundwork. Typical total project costs often fall between £2,000 and £5,000 for an average front drive. Pattern imprinted, coloured concrete and extensive edging can increase costs, while straightforward rectangular layouts are usually more economical. We provide a written quote after a site visit.
Most installations take 2–4 days on site, depending on size, excavation, edging and the chosen finish. Pattern imprinted and exposed aggregate can add time because timing and detailing are more involved. Poor ground, restricted access in SM2/SM3, or extra drainage work may also extend the schedule. After pouring, concrete needs curing time before heavy vehicle use; we’ll advise the safest timeframe.
Many driveway projects are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage and conservation areas. If you’re replacing a front garden, you may need to manage surface water so it doesn’t run onto the highway or into drains without permission. Requirements can differ near protected streetscapes in Cheam. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can recommend compliant drainage solutions before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty covering installation workmanship, including issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation or poor compaction. It also covers defects linked to our laying and finishing methods. Normal wear, accidental damage, heavy point-loading, and problems caused by third-party alterations aren’t included. We’ll explain curing, sealing and maintenance steps to help your driveway stay in top condition.
We offer standard concrete, brushed finish for grip, coloured concrete for a cleaner modern look, exposed aggregate for texture, and pattern imprinted for a block-paving style without joints. Borders, edging kerbs and contrasting bands can help suit period cottages or 1930s homes. If your drive needs attention rather than replacement, we also carry out repairs. We’ll bring samples and recommend options based on light, slope and parking needs.
