If your parking space is tired, uneven or puddling after rain, we can transform it with a driveway that suits Eastfields streets. We work across SW16 and CR4, including homes near Eastfields station and routes towards Mitcham. From new installations to careful driveway repairs, we focus on strong sub-bases, neat edges and a finish that elevates kerb appeal. Every job is planned around access, parking and keeping disruption low.
Eastfields is a well-connected residential area undergoing regeneration, with a mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments. Each property type needs a different approach: terraces often benefit from efficient layouts and tidy drainage runs, while semis can suit wider block paving patterns or resin finishes. We also design entrances that complement brickwork, render and front garden walls common around Pollards Hill and Streatham Vale. The result is a driveway that looks right and performs well year-round.
Our process starts with a site survey, levels check and clear recommendations on materials, drainage and edging. We excavate properly, install a compacted sub-base, then lay your chosen surface to manufacturer and British Standards guidance. You’ll receive a written 10-year warranty, plus aftercare advice to keep the finish looking sharp. Homeowners choose us because we’re local, punctual and precise, with clean work practices throughout.
As driveway contractors in London Borough of Merton, we plan around local parking pressures, narrow access points and shared crossovers. Ground conditions can vary, so we assess levels and specify the right sub-base depth to prevent sinking and rutting. Where front gardens fall towards the pavement, we design drainage to manage run-off and protect thresholds. We also help you understand council requirements for dropped kerbs and permeable surfacing.

Costs depend on size, excavation depth, access and your chosen surface. As a guide, gravel is often £60–£110 per m², tarmac £80–£140 per m², block paving £110–£180 per m², resin £120–£200 per m², and concrete £90–£160 per m². Repairs can start from a few hundred pounds, while full replacements typically run into several thousand. We provide itemised quotes after a survey.
Most domestic driveways take around 3–7 working days from excavation to completion, depending on size and complexity. Block paving and resin systems can take longer if we’re installing new edging, steps or complex drainage. Weather, access for skips and materials, and curing times (especially for concrete) also affect the programme. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but there are important rules around surface water. If you’re creating or replacing a driveway over 5m², the surface should usually be permeable or drain to a suitable soakaway rather than the public highway. Dropped kerbs require council approval. We check drainage compliance, advise on SUDS-friendly options, and can guide you through permissions where needed.
We provide a written 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveways, covering issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, edge failure, and installation defects. Material warranties may also apply depending on the product (for example, resin systems or specific paving ranges). The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, oil staining, or neglect such as blocked drains. We explain care requirements clearly at handover.
Block paving remains a favourite for Victorian terraces and 1930s semis, with herringbone patterns and charcoal borders for a crisp look. Resin driveways suit modern developments and are great for a smooth, permeable finish. Tarmac is practical for larger areas, while gravel offers a traditional, budget-friendly option. We’ll help you choose colours, edging and drainage details, and can design layouts to maximise parking and turning space.
