If your parking is tight or your frontage needs a refresh, we build driveways that look smart and perform year-round. We regularly work around Eden Park station and the residential streets leading towards Beckenham and Elmers End. From replacing tired concrete to creating extra off-street parking, we tailor the layout to your access and vehicle needs. Every installation includes careful levels so water runs where it should.
Eden Park has a strong mix of 1930s semis, detached houses and Edwardian properties, often with sloping drives and established front gardens. We design entrances, turning areas and paths that complement period brickwork and boundary walls. Whether you want a crisp modern resin finish or a traditional block pattern, we match colours and edging to your home. Where space is limited, we can optimise the footprint without compromising drainage.
Our process starts with a site survey, clear written specification and a choice of materials and patterns. We excavate to the correct depth, install a solid sub-base, and finish with accurate falls and neat detailing. If you need drainage channels or a dropped kerb, we’ll advise early so there are no surprises. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, reliable scheduling and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Front gardens in BR3 often have mixed ground and mature tree roots, so we assess levels and sub-base requirements carefully. Parking and access can be tight near Kelsey Park routes and commuter streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider local drainage expectations and recommend permeable build-ups where appropriate. The result is a driveway that fits the property style and copes with London weather.

Costs vary by size, excavation depth, access and finish. As a guide, gravel is often £60–£110 per m², tarmac £80–£140 per m², block paving £120–£200 per m², and resin bound £130–£220 per m². Natural stone and premium detailing can be higher. Drainage channels, steps, walls or a new dropped kerb will add to the overall budget.
Most projects take around 3–7 working days, depending on area, material choice and how much excavation is required. Resin bound and tarmac can be quicker once the base is prepared, while block paving and natural stone take longer due to laying patterns and edge detailing. Poor ground, complex drainage, or restricted access for skips and machinery can extend the programme. We confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey.
Many driveway installations are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage and surface water. If you’re creating or replacing a front driveway over 5m², you’ll usually need a permeable surface or drainage to a suitable soakaway rather than the public sewer. Dropped kerbs require approval from the relevant highway authority. We’ll advise on compliance and help you choose a SUDS-friendly design.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including sub-base preparation, levels, and installation quality. It’s designed to protect you against issues such as sinking caused by inadequate compaction or poor construction. Material warranties can also apply depending on the product used (for example, resin systems or paving). We’ll explain what’s covered in writing and provide care guidance to keep the surface looking its best.
We install block paving (including herringbone and stretcher bond), resin bound for a smooth permeable finish, tarmac for clean practicality, and gravel for a classic look. We also offer concrete, natural stone setts and flags, plus edging kerbs and contrasting borders. During the survey we’ll recommend colours, textures and patterns that suit your property and help with practical choices like turning space, lighting routes and drainage placement.
