Paddington’s mix of busy roads and elegant streets calls for driveways that look smart and work hard. We design and install block paving, resin, tarmac, gravel and concrete driveways across W2, with repairs and upgrades available too. Whether you’re near Paddington station or closer to Little Venice, we plan around access and parking so the job runs smoothly. Every driveway is finished with clean edges, safe levels and proper drainage.
Local properties range from stucco townhouses and mansion flats to modern apartments around Paddington Basin. That variety affects everything from levels and thresholds to how we manage shared access points and bin stores. We regularly work on front gardens where space is tight and turning circles matter. If you’re improving a rental property or upgrading your own home, our driveway contractors Paddington area team can tailor a durable solution without compromising the look of the frontage.
We start with a site visit, measure-up and a written specification covering excavation depth, sub-base, edging and falls. Our installations follow best practice for load-bearing and water management, including permeable options where appropriate. You’ll get a clear programme, tidy working methods and regular updates from start to finish. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent communication and a finish that lasts.
Working in the City of Westminster often means controlled parking, narrow access and strict waste removal expectations. We plan deliveries, skip permits and working hours to minimise disruption, especially near Bayswater and Marylebone routes. Ground conditions can vary between made ground and older sub-bases, so we inspect and specify excavation depths accordingly. We also design with townhouse frontages in mind, keeping drainage and levels neat against steps and basement lightwells.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Paddington typically depend on access, excavation depth and the finish you choose. As a guide, gravel driveways often start around £70–£120 per m², tarmac around £90–£150 per m², block paving around £120–£200 per m², and resin-bound around £130–£220 per m². Concrete is commonly £100–£180 per m². Repairs are usually priced after inspection, from a few hundred pounds upwards.
Most driveway projects take 3–10 working days, depending on size, material and site constraints. A small resin or tarmac driveway can be completed faster, while block paving often takes longer due to edging, laying patterns and jointing. Timescales can extend if we’re improving drainage, coordinating a dropped kerb, or dealing with restricted access and parking near busy roads. We provide a realistic programme before starting.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage, impermeable surfacing and changes to access. In the City of Westminster, you may also need permission for a dropped kerb and to comply with requirements for surface water to drain to a permeable area rather than the highway. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, extra checks may be needed. We review constraints and advise before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for new driveway installations, covering issues such as sinking caused by sub-base failure, edging movement and installation-related defects. Materials may also carry manufacturer warranties, depending on the product selected. The warranty does not cover damage from third-party works, oil spills, or extreme events outside normal use. We’ll explain care requirements and provide aftercare guidance to protect your finish.
For Paddington homes, block paving with charcoal borders, resin-bound gravel in warm stone tones, and clean-edged tarmac with granite setts are popular choices. Gravel can suit period frontages when properly stabilised, while brushed concrete works well for modern apartments needing a crisp look. We help you choose colours, edging and patterns to suit stucco façades and mansion flat entrances, then finalise levels, drainage and lighting-friendly layouts.
