That awkward kerb between your drive and the road doesn't have to stay that way. Creating proper vehicle access transforms daily life, particularly on Biggin Hill's steeper residential roads where smooth entry matters.

Property owners throughout TN16 face unique challenges when upgrading their frontages. The area's mix of period homes and newer developments often means driveways were added long after the original construction. Local regulations require careful planning, especially near the historic airfield boundaries where utilities run beneath verges. Converting grass verges into legitimate crossings involves more than just dropping kerbs.
Modern crossover construction integrates drainage channels that prevent water pooling—essential given our elevation here. Reinforced concrete aprons withstand thousands of vehicle movements whilst maintaining the streetscape appearance. The process typically involves excavating existing kerbing, installing new tapered units, and creating a smooth transition that meets highway specifications. Each installation considers existing tree roots, underground services, and the specific gradient of your particular road.
Twenty years of working across Keston, Westerham and Tatsfield means understanding which council departments handle what. Direct relationships with highways officers streamline approvals, particularly for properties near conservation zones.

Most residential crossovers range from £1,800-£3,500, depending on width and whether drainage modifications are needed. Properties on Main Road often require additional work due to the camber.
Absolutely—from Aperfield through to Jail Lane, including all residential areas around Single Street. Each neighbourhood has specific requirements we're familiar with.
Once permits clear, installation takes 3-5 days. The concrete needs 48 hours before light vehicles can use it, though we provide temporary access solutions during curing.
Every crossover carries decade-long protection against settlement or structural issues. This covers the concrete apron, kerb stones, and any associated drainage work completed during installation.
Yes, though creating new off-street parking requires planning permission first. Many Biggin Hill properties have sufficient frontage—we'll assess feasibility and guide you through the complete process from planning to completion.
