In the London Borough of Croydon, many streets around Ashburton Park and Leslie Park have older drainage and mixed ground conditions, so we assess infiltration and levels before recommending a system. Access can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also design around typical boundary walls, bay windows and short set-backs common to CR0 homes. The result is a driveway that suits the property and performs in real weather.

Costs in Addiscombe vary by size, excavation depth and finish. As a guide, permeable block paving often starts around £120–£180 per m², resin bound surfaces typically £90–£150 per m², and gravel grid systems can be £60–£110 per m².

Resin bound installations may require specific weather windows and curing time, while permeable paving can take longer if there are complex levels or steps. Restricted access, parking constraints and removal of existing concrete can also add time. We confirm a programme before starting and keep you updated throughout.
