A properly installed dropped kerb makes driveway access safer, protects the pavement and keeps you on the right side of local rules. We deliver pavement crossovers across SM7, including Nork and Burgh Heath. Whether you’re near Banstead High Street or heading out towards Banstead Downs, we plan the works around traffic, access and neighbours. Expect neat finishes and a crossover that looks like it has always been there.
Banstead’s mix of large detached houses, 1930s properties and modern executive homes often comes with wider frontages and off-street parking potential. We regularly create crossovers for single and double driveways, plus solutions for sloping plots and deeper front gardens. If your entrance sits close to a street tree, lamp column or existing drainage, we’ll design around it and advise on what the council will accept. The aim is a practical entrance that suits the style and scale of your home.
Our process is straightforward: site survey, council application support, compliant kerb installation, then full reinstatement of footway surfaces. We coordinate permits, organise inspections where required, and keep disruption down with clear scheduling and tidy working. You’ll get workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty, plus guidance on maintaining the crossover. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, clean finishes and work that meets specification first time.
Dropped kerbs in Reigate and Banstead Borough must meet strict crossover and visibility standards, and we build to those requirements from the start. Banstead’s downland setting can mean variable ground conditions and levels, so we check falls, drainage and sub-base depth carefully. Parking and access can be tight near busier stretches such as Banstead High Street, so we plan deliveries and work phases to minimise disruption. We also account for wider driveways common around Nork Park and nearby residential roads.

For dropped kerbs Banstead area projects, most homeowners budget £800–£2,500 depending on width, footway construction and council requirements. A typical pavement crossover comes in around £1,200–£1,800 for a standard access. Costs can rise if the pavement needs deeper reconstruction, there are utility covers to adjust, or additional reinstatement is required. We’ll survey first and explain what’s driving the price before you commit.
Most dropped kerb installations take 1–2 days on site once approvals are in place. Day one is usually excavation, setting levels and installing the kerbs and sub-base; day two covers surfacing and reinstatement. Timescales can change with weather, the size of the crossover, curing times for materials, and any required inspections. We’ll give you a clear programme so you know when access will be restricted.
You can usually build or alter a driveway on your land under permitted development, but lowering the kerb and crossing the public footway requires council approval. In Reigate and Banstead Borough, the highway authority will set standards for width, gradients, visibility and reinstatement. We help with the council application, drawings where needed, and compliance checks so the crossover is approved and signed off correctly. If extra permissions apply, we’ll flag them early.
Yes. Our dropped kerb and crossover workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty. It covers installation-related issues such as movement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, kerb line instability, or failures in reinstated surfaces where our workmanship is responsible. It doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or problems caused by third-party utility works after completion. We’ll also advise on aftercare to keep the entrance performing well.
Options depend on council specification and the existing footway, but common solutions include standard dropped kerb units with tarmac reinstatement, concrete footway slabs, or block-paved crossover sections where permitted. We can also match edging details and levels to suit wider driveways on detached and executive homes. During the survey we’ll recommend a compliant design, explain finish choices, and help you pick the best option for durability, appearance and budget.
