Those tired tarmac drives and cracked concrete paths around Sidcup deserve better. Whether you're after sleek block paving or contemporary resin-bound surfaces, proper installation makes all the difference to your property's kerb appeal.

Sidcup's mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and modern developments each present unique paving challenges. Steep driveways near Foots Cray meadows require careful drainage planning, whilst the clay-heavy soil common to DA15 needs proper sub-base preparation. Years of experience across both postcodes means understanding exactly what groundwork each property requires before laying that first block.
Quality paving starts beneath the surface - excavating to correct depths, installing geotextile membranes, then compacting Type 1 MOT aggregate in layers creates the stable foundation essential for longevity. Block patterns get meticulously planned around existing manholes and drainage, with falls calculated to prevent standing water. Edge restraints lock everything firmly in place, preventing that dreaded spreading you see on poorly installed drives throughout Bexley borough.
Local knowledge counts when matching materials to Sidcup's architectural character. Having transformed hundreds of frontages between Chislehurst borders and Eltham boundaries, the right paving choice becomes second nature.

Standard block paving typically ranges £65-£85 per square metre including groundworks, whilst resin-bound surfaces start around £75-£95. A typical two-car driveway (40m²) in DA14/DA15 usually falls between £2,600-£3,800 depending on access, existing surface removal and chosen materials.
Regular projects span from Halfway Street through to Longlands, covering all of DA14 including estates near Sidcup station and DA15 properties around Blackfen. Also frequently working in neighbouring Chislehurst, Eltham and throughout Bexley borough.
Most residential driveways take 3-5 days from excavation to completion, weather permitting. Larger areas or complex patterns might extend to 7 days. You'll have pedestrian access throughout, with vehicle access restored as soon as the surface cures.
Every installation includes comprehensive 10-year warranty covering both materials and workmanship. This protects against sinking, spreading or joint failure - common issues with DIY attempts. All work meets British Standards, giving peace of mind your investment stays looking sharp.
Sound concrete provides excellent sub-base if level and crack-free. After inspection, many Sidcup driveways suit overlay systems, saving excavation costs. However, damaged or poorly draining concrete needs complete removal to ensure your new paving performs properly long-term.
