Space constraints plague countless Biggin Hill properties, particularly those charming period homes dotted throughout TN16. Creating additional parking doesn't have to mean sacrificing your garden's character.

Properties across Biggin Hill often feature narrow driveways that suited a different era of motoring. Modern family life demands more parking capacity, especially with many households running multiple vehicles. The sloping terrain common to this part of Kent adds complexity to any extension project, requiring careful planning and drainage consideration. Local knowledge makes all the difference when working with the area's mix of clay and chalk substrates.
Block paving remains popular for extensions here, blending seamlessly with existing surfaces whilst providing excellent durability against our variable weather. Permeable options help manage surface water effectively - crucial given Biggin Hill's elevated position and natural runoff patterns. Strategic placement of soakaways prevents pooling issues that trouble many driveways on the slopes leading toward Keston. Each extension incorporates proper sub-base preparation to prevent the settlement problems that affect poorly constructed driveways throughout the North Downs.
Years spent working on properties from Tatsfield through to Westerham have taught us the quirks of this landscape. Every project receives the same meticulous attention, whether extending a modest semi's parking area or expanding the sweeping drive of a detached home near Aperfield.

Matching existing surfaces forms a key part of most extensions - whether that's sourcing similar block paving, creating seamless tarmac joins, or blending gravel types. Sometimes a complementary border design works better than attempting an exact match with older, weathered materials.
