Cracked tarmac, loose blocks and potholes quickly spoil the look of a driveway and can become a trip hazard. Our team repairs worn surfaces across SE19, with regular work near Norwood Grove Park and Upper Norwood. Whether you need re-sanding and re-sealing, repointing, or targeted pothole repairs, we focus on neat finishes that blend with the existing driveway. The aim is simple: extend the life of what you already have and avoid a full replacement where possible.
Norwood Grove’s quiet residential streets include Victorian houses, Edwardian properties and period conversions, often with compact frontages and shared access considerations. We’re used to working on narrower driveways, sloped approaches and older edging details where levels must be kept tidy against thresholds and garden walls. If your driveway sits higher or lower than the pavement, we’ll check falls and drainage so water doesn’t run toward the house. This local experience makes driveway repairs Norwood Grove area homeowners rely on for practical, long-lasting results.
We start with a site survey, identify the cause (movement, drainage, failed bedding, or surface wear), then recommend the most effective repair. Typical works include lifting and relaying sunken blocks, tarmac patching, re-sanding, re-sealing, weed removal, and drainage fixes where pooling is an issue. You’ll get a clear scope of work, tidy workmanship, and careful clean-down on completion. Homeowners choose us for driveway repairs in London Borough of Croydon because we prioritise durability, matching materials, and straightforward communication.
In the London Borough of Croydon, we often see driveways affected by tree roots, heavy rainfall and uneven sub-bases on older plots. Parking and access can be tight around Upper Norwood and Crystal Palace, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also pay close attention to levels at period properties, where thresholds and air bricks must be protected. Our repairs are designed to suit these local conditions, not a one-size-fits-all method.

Costs vary by surface type, access and the extent of the damage. As a guide, small tarmac patching or pothole repairs often start from around £150–£350, while block paving repairs (lifting, re-bedding and re-sanding a small area) are commonly £250–£650. Larger sections, drainage fixes, or re-sealing can take totals to £700–£2,000+. We’ll survey and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Many repairs are completed in a day, especially small block paving lifts, repointing, weed removal and localised tarmac patching. Medium repairs can take 1–2 days if we’re correcting levels, replacing a wider area, or carrying out drainage fixes. Timescales depend on the size of the affected section, curing times for tarmac or sealers, and weather conditions. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before starting.
Most like-for-like driveway repairs are permitted and don’t need planning permission. Rules can apply if you’re changing the surface type, altering levels significantly, or installing new drainage that affects runoff to the highway. For front gardens, permeable surfacing and correct drainage are important to meet UK requirements. If your project touches these areas, we’ll advise on best practice and help you check Croydon guidance before work begins.
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty, covering defects related to the repair work we carry out (such as relaid block paving settling due to incorrect installation, or premature failure of repaired sections). It doesn’t cover new damage from heavy impact, oil spills, or underlying issues outside the repaired area that weren’t visible at survey stage. We’ll explain what’s covered for your specific repair and how to maintain it.
We aim to match what you already have, but there are options to improve the finish. For block paving, we can replace damaged blocks, adjust edging, and choose jointing sand and sealers for a cleaner look. For tarmac, we can patch with suitable grades and blend edges to reduce visible joins. We’ll also advise on permeable solutions and drainage channels where water pooling is a problem, helping you choose what suits your home and budget.
