Marylebone homes demand driveways that look refined and perform year-round. From properties near Marylebone High Street to streets off Baker Street, we design surfaces that complement the façade and improve everyday access. We install block paving, resin bound, tarmac, gravel, concrete and natural stone to suit different budgets and styles. Every build includes careful levels and water management to keep the area tidy in wet weather.
The Marylebone and W1 streetscape is a mix of Georgian townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions, often with tight front gardens and shared access points. We’re used to working around basement lightwells, railings, steps and existing thresholds so the finished driveway feels original to the building. For clients in the driveway installation Marylebone area, we can match traditional detailing with modern performance. We also plan for discreet bin storage zones and clear pedestrian routes where space is limited.
Our process starts with a site survey, measurements and a clear written specification, including excavation depths and sub-base build-up. We install compliant drainage (including permeable options) and can coordinate dropped kerbs where required. Work is scheduled to minimise disruption, with tidy daily clean-downs and protected access to your property. Homeowners choose us for straightforward communication, high-end finishes and a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Access and parking in the City of Westminster can be challenging, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and working hours carefully. Many Marylebone streets have narrow entrances and restricted turning, which affects excavation and plant choice. We also account for mixed ground conditions and existing services typical of older buildings. Where drainage rules apply, we recommend permeable resin bound or correctly channelled outfalls to keep the site compliant.

Costs vary by material, access and groundwork. As a guide in W1, gravel or basic tarmac often starts around £90–£140 per m², block paving and concrete typically £130–£220 per m², and resin bound or natural stone commonly £160–£280+ per m². Excavation depth, waste removal, edging, steps, lighting ducts and drainage can change the total. We provide an itemised quote after a survey.
Most driveways take 3–7 working days from excavation to completion, depending on size and the chosen finish. Resin bound and tarmac can be quicker once the base is prepared, while natural stone and detailed block paving may take longer due to cutting and setting. Timescales are affected by access restrictions, drainage works, dropped kerb coordination and curing times for concrete. We’ll confirm a schedule before starting.
Many driveway projects are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage, listed buildings and conservation areas. In general, non-permeable front driveways over 5m² must drain to a permeable area or use a permeable surface rather than the public highway. Dropped kerbs always require council approval. We check constraints for your address and propose compliant options as part of our driveway installation in City of Westminster service.
We provide a 10-year workmanship warranty covering installation defects such as sinking from inadequate sub-base, poor edge restraint, and drainage issues caused by incorrect falls. Manufacturer guarantees may also apply to specific products (for example, resin systems or paving). The warranty assumes normal domestic use and reasonable maintenance, and it excludes damage from third-party works or structural movement beyond our control. Warranty terms are supplied in writing.
Popular choices in Marylebone include block paving in traditional tones, resin bound for a clean, permeable finish, and natural stone for a high-end period look. Tarmac and concrete suit simpler, hard-wearing driveways, while gravel works well for softer aesthetics with good drainage. We help you choose edging, patterns, steps, lighting conduits and drainage details to match your property and usage. Samples and layout suggestions are provided before installation.
