Timperley has some of the most practical family homes in Trafford, and a good driveway makes all the difference. We install block paving, resin and tarmac driveways in Timperley and across WA15, working on the semis off Park Road, the bungalows around Riddings and the newer homes near Timperley Metrolink.
We start with a free, no-pressure survey and a fixed written quote. Our team digs out, builds the base and lays the surface ourselves, using approved materials from Brett, Tobermore and The Resin Mill. All work is fully insured.

Customer opinions matter to us. Most of our work comes from recommendations, and here is what customers say.

Block paving is cost-effective, low-maintenance and endlessly customisable. You choose the colour, texture and laying pattern, and if a block is ever damaged it can be lifted and replaced on its own without disturbing the rest of the drive.
Many Timperley semis have narrow side runs leading to a garage. Block paving lets us follow that shape exactly and add a soldier course edge, so the drive looks deliberate rather than squeezed in.
Resin bound surfaces mix small natural stones with a clear resin, trowelled to a smooth, even finish. The result is permeable, so water drains through, and it comes in a wide range of colours. In the right conditions it can even be laid over a sound existing driveway.
Homes near Timperley Brook and the Bridgewater Canal can suffer from standing water. A resin bound driveway on an open base lets rain soak away instead of pooling by the front door.


Tarmac and asphalt driveways are quick to install and very durable. We lay them on a compacted stone base and finish the edges with paving or kerbs, which restrains the surface and gives the drive a sharper look.
Tarmac is popular for wider frontages in West Timperley where two or three cars need to park side by side. It goes down quickly and gives a clean, even surface.



Dips where the car parks mean the base underneath has failed.
Water should run away from the house, not towards it.
Lost jointing sand lets blocks move and weeds take hold.
Once the surface breaks up, patching rarely lasts.

A lot of Timperley houses were built between the wars with modest front gardens that were never designed for two cars. We often widen the parking area, move a gate post or remove a hedge line to make it work. Old concrete and crazy paving drives are common, and the edges have usually broken away. If a new or wider dropped kerb is needed, Trafford Council handles the crossing, and we explain what they will ask for.
We also lay driveways in these nearby areas, with the same team and the same guarantees.

A Timperley driveway is priced on its size, the surface, how much old concrete or paving has to be broken out, and whether the parking area is being widened. We do not guess from photos. Book a free survey on 0161 841 7075 and we will give you a fixed written price.
For a typical Timperley semi, block paving is the all-rounder: strong, easy to repair and available in lots of colours. Resin bound is the better choice if drainage is a problem, and tarmac makes sense on wide frontages where budget matters most.
Usually not, as long as the surface is permeable or rainwater runs off onto a lawn or border within your property. In England, a new impermeable front driveway over 5 square metres that drains onto the road needs planning permission. Resin bound and permeable block paving avoid this. Listed buildings and some conservation streets have extra rules, and we flag these at your survey.
Yes. A dropped kerb (vehicle crossing) in Timperley is approved by Trafford Council, and you need their consent before driving over the pavement. We explain what the council asks for at your survey, and we can lay the new driveway so it lines up with the approved crossing.
Resin bound driveways are permeable: the stones are mixed with resin and trowelled smooth, leaving tiny gaps for water to pass through, provided the base underneath is permeable too. Resin bonded (scatter coat) surfaces are not permeable. We only lay resin bound driveways for homes, on a base designed to drain.
No. Every driveway is laid by our own qualified and fully insured team. We never use sub-contractors, so the people who survey your drive are the people who build it, and the standard is the same on every job.
Sometimes. Resin bound and tarmac can go over existing tarmac or concrete that is sound, level and drains well, after repairs and priming. Block paving, and any drive that is sinking, cracked through or holding water, needs digging out and a new base. We check which applies at your free survey.
We call you back to arrange a free survey at a time that suits you. We measure up, check levels and drainage, show you samples and then send a fixed written quote with no obligation. If you go ahead, we agree a start date and our own team carries out the work from excavation to the final clean.
