Keston's mix of period homes and modern builds often sit on generous plots with awkward access angles. Many residents discover their original driveways simply can't cope with today's family needs - second cars, delivery vans, or visitor parking become daily puzzles. Extension work here requires understanding both the local geology and the specific drainage challenges that come with BR2's undulating terrain.
Creating additional driveway space involves careful assessment of existing surfaces, gradient calculations, and integration with your current layout. Block paving remains popular for extensions, offering flexibility around mature trees and existing landscaping. Permeable surfaces help manage the water runoff issues particularly prevalent near Keston Common, while reinforced grass systems suit properties wanting to maintain that semi-rural feel.
Twenty years working across Bromley's varied landscapes means recognising each property's unique requirements immediately. Local knowledge matters when navigating planning considerations around Keston's conservation areas and understanding which materials weather best in this particular microclimate.
