From Catford Broadway to the Catford Cat statue, SE6 homes need driveways that cope with daily parking and changing weather. Our tarmac surfaces deliver a clean, modern finish that suits front gardens and wider forecourts alike. Whether you’re replacing tired asphalt or creating a brand-new parking space, we tailor the build to your access and levels. We also handle repairs and tidy transitions to the pavement for a safer entrance.
Catford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and ex-council properties often comes with narrow side access, shared boundaries and varied front garden layouts. We’re used to working around bay windows, low walls and existing paths, keeping everything neat and practical. If you’re in Hither Green or Grove Park, we’ll plan the driveway shape to maximise parking without making turning awkward. The result is a surface that suits the property and improves day-to-day use.
We start with a site visit to confirm measurements, levels and drainage falls, then recommend the right base depth for long-term performance. Our team prepares the sub-base properly, installs strong edging where needed, and lays and compacts the tarmac for a smooth, even finish. You’ll get clear communication, tidy working practices and a written 10-year warranty for peace of mind. Local homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship and straightforward pricing.
In the London Borough of Lewisham, parking and access can be tight, so we plan deliveries, removal and working space carefully. Many Catford streets have mixed levels between front gardens and pavements, so we set accurate falls to reduce standing water. Where council requirements apply—such as dropped kerbs—we’ll guide you through the process and coordinate the build sequence. We also adapt edging and drainage details to suit older terraces and 1930s plots.

For tarmac driveways Catford area homeowners typically budget £40–£70 per square metre, depending on excavation, sub-base depth, edging and drainage. Many standard domestic driveways come out around £1,600–£3,500, with resurfacing often costing less than a full dig-out. Extras such as red tarmac, decorative kerbs and repairs to failed sections can affect the total. We’ll confirm costs after a site survey.
Most new installations and resurfacing jobs take 1–2 days, depending on size, access and how much groundwork is required. A straightforward overlay can be completed quickly, while a full rebuild needs time for excavation, sub-base installation and careful compaction. Weather can also influence scheduling, as heavy rain can delay laying. We’ll provide a clear programme before work starts and keep disruption to a minimum.
In many cases, driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage, paving over front gardens and changes to vehicle access. If you need a dropped kerb, approval is typically required from the relevant highways authority, and there may be specifications to meet. We’ll advise what’s usually needed for tarmac driveways in London Borough of Lewisham and help you check requirements before we begin.
