Survey First

The Driveway Specification Starts With the Ground

A good driveway is not just the visible surface. Before recommending block paving, resin-bound or gravel, the existing driveway needs to be checked for levels, drainage, access, edges and how vehicles actually use the space.

  • 1

    Existing Surface

    Old tarmac, concrete, paving, gravel and mixed surfaces all need different preparation before a new driveway is installed.

  • 2

    Levels and Drainage

    Falls, thresholds, water run-off and boundary edges are checked so the finished driveway works properly in real weather.

  • 3

    Access and Vehicle Use

    Turning space, parking layout, wheel loads and daily use affect the depth, edging and surface choice.

  • 4

    Base and Edging

    The sub-base, restraints and edge detail are planned before the final surface goes down, because that is what keeps the driveway stable.

Common Questions About Driveway Installation

Straightforward answers for homeowners comparing block paving, resin-bound and gravel driveway options across Hampshire.

Which areas do you cover?

Perimeter Driveways & Surfacing works across Hampshire, with a focus on Totton, Southampton, Romsey, Winchester and the New Forest.

Which driveway surface is best?

That depends on the property. Block paving, resin-bound and gravel or shingle all suit different homes. The right choice depends on drainage, access, vehicle use and the finish wanted.

Can you replace an old tarmac or concrete driveway?

Yes. Old tarmac, concrete, paving or gravel can usually be removed and replaced, provided the site allows proper dig-out, disposal, preparation and base construction.

Will drainage be considered before the driveway is built?

Yes. Levels, falls, thresholds, water run-off and nearby boundaries are checked before the surface is specified so the finished driveway works properly.

Can you make a driveway wider or improve parking space?

Often, yes. Where the frontage allows it, the driveway layout can be planned around better parking, easier turning and safer access from the road.

Do you install edging and borders?

Yes. Edge restraints and borders help hold the driveway surface in place and give the finished area a cleaner, stronger outline.

Do you handle the dig-out and base preparation?

Yes. Driveway preparation includes excavation, sub-base preparation, compaction and edge restraint work before the chosen surface is installed.
