That narrow driveway beside your Epsom home could become the double parking space you've desperately needed. Properties throughout KT17, KT18 and KT19 often struggle with limited off-street parking – a problem that's entirely fixable with thoughtful extension work.

Victorian properties along Epsom's tree-lined roads weren't designed for multiple cars, yet modern families need the space. Extending driveways has become essential for homeowners between the Downs and Ashley Road. Local planning restrictions mean experience matters – knowing which materials complement conservation areas whilst maximising your available frontage makes all the difference.
Block paving remains popular across Epsom's residential streets, though resin-bound surfaces suit properties near chalk downs where drainage proves tricky. Extension work typically involves removing established borders, excavating to proper depths, then installing suitable sub-base layers before your chosen surface. Properties near Epsom Common often require additional groundwork due to underlying clay.
Twenty years solving parking problems for Epsom residents means understanding each street's quirks. From cramped terraces near the station to sprawling plots towards Ashtead, every extension presents unique challenges.

Most driveway extensions across KT postcodes fall between £3,500 and £8,000, depending on size and surface choice. Smaller side returns might cost less, whilst complete frontage transformations on larger Epsom Downs properties could exceed £10,000.
Absolutely – from busy streets near Epsom station (KT17) through to quieter roads around Epsom Downs (KT18) and residential areas stretching towards Ewell (KT19). Recent projects include extensions on Woodcote Road, College Road and properties backing onto the racecourse.
Standard extensions typically complete within 7-10 days, weather permitting. Larger projects involving significant excavation or drainage work might stretch to three weeks, particularly during Epsom's wetter months.
Every extension carries decade-long protection against structural failure or surface defects. This covers both groundwork integrity and surface materials – essential peace of mind given Epsom's variable ground conditions from chalk to clay.
Often, yes. Many Epsom properties feature mature shrubs or original Victorian boundaries worth preserving. Creative design allows parking expansion whilst retaining character – perhaps curving around that established magnolia or incorporating existing brick pillars into the new layout.
