Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions about driveway installation and repairs in Telford.

What areas in Telford do you cover?

We cover the entire Telford area including Newport, Wellington, Priorslee, Muxton, Lawley, Dawley, Shifnal and more.

Which driveway surface is cheapest?

Gravel is usually the most affordable, followed by tarmac. Block paving and resin bound cost more upfront but offer different long-term advantages — we're happy to talk through the trade-offs for your specific driveway.

How long does a new driveway take to install?

It depends on size and surface type, but most residential driveways take between two and five days, including excavation, sub-base work, and the final surface.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?

Usually not for a standard replacement, but permeable surfaces (like resin bound or gravel) are often required by regulations if you're paving over front garden space that currently drains naturally. We can advise on this during your quote.

My driveway keeps cracking — do I need a full replacement?

Not always. Repeated cracking in the same spot is often a sub-base or drainage issue rather than a reason to replace the whole surface. We'll always tell you honestly if repair is a realistic option rather than pushing a full replacement.

Do you offer guarantees on your work?

Yes, our driveway installation work comes with a workmanship guarantee — details are provided in writing as part of your quote.
