A well-built driveway transforms parking, kerb appeal and day-to-day access for busy households in Mitcham. We design and install block paving, resin, tarmac, gravel and concrete driveways, plus repairs and drainage upgrades. Many clients are close to Mitcham Common or around Figges Marsh, where reliable surfacing and water management matter. Expect clear advice, neat workmanship and a finish that looks right for the street.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and newer estates means no two driveways are the same. We regularly work on narrow frontages, shared crossovers and sloping approaches, tailoring layouts to maximise parking without losing planting space. If your home is near Mitcham Cricket Green or closer to Mitcham Junction station, we’ll plan access and deliveries to minimise disruption. Our local experience helps us recommend the best surface for your budget and usage.
We start with a site survey, levels check and a practical design that includes edging, falls and drainage. Your driveway is built on proper sub-base preparation, with tidy excavations and responsible waste removal. We keep you updated throughout, and every installation is backed by a 10-year warranty for peace of mind. Homeowners choose us because we turn up when we say we will and finish to a high standard.
As driveway contractors in London Borough of Merton, we’re used to CR4 access constraints, on-street parking and busy commuter roads. Ground conditions can vary, so we set correct levels and falls to prevent pooling and damp issues near thresholds. We also plan for bin access, pedestrian routes and turning space—particularly on 1930s plots in Pollards Hill and Eastfields. Where required, we help with dropped kerb applications and ensure drainage meets current rules.

Costs vary by size, excavation depth and finish. As a guide in Mitcham, gravel driveways often start around £60–£100 per m², tarmac £80–£130 per m², block paving £110–£180 per m², and resin-bound £120–£200 per m². Concrete is typically £90–£150 per m². Repairs, drainage channels and dropped kerbs are priced after a site survey.
Most standard residential driveways take 3–7 working days from excavation to completion, depending on size and the surface chosen. Block paving and complex edging can take longer than tarmac or resin. Timescales also depend on access for skips and machinery, drying/curing time for concrete, and any drainage or dropped kerb works. We provide a clear schedule before starting and keep disruption controlled.
Often, a new or replacement driveway is permitted development, but there are key rules around surface water drainage. If you’re laying an impermeable surface over 5m² in your front garden, you’ll usually need a permeable solution or drainage to a suitable area. Dropped kerbs require council approval. We check the requirements for your property and recommend compliant materials and drainage details.
Yes. Our driveway installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as sinking caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, edging movement and installation-related defects. Material warranties may also apply depending on the product used (for example, resin systems). The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, oil spills or lack of basic maintenance, but we’ll explain care requirements clearly at handover.
Block paving remains popular for 1930s semis thanks to its classic look, colour choice and easy repairs. Resin-bound is a favourite for a clean, modern finish with good permeability, while tarmac suits larger parking areas and high-use driveways. We also install gravel for a softer, traditional feel and concrete for crisp lines. We’ll help you choose colours, edging, patterns and drainage to suit your home.
