Driveways in Newark
Newark is a genuine trip out from our Nottingham base rather than a local run, and we would rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise. It means we quote from measurements and photographs before arranging a visit, and it means a driveway on its own is rarely the most sensible thing for us to be doing twenty miles from the yard.
Where it does make sense is as part of a bigger job — a drive, gates and a boundary together, or a drive alongside a garden being rebuilt. Newark also has a substantial conservation area covering the historic centre and a number of listed buildings, where surface materials and boundary treatments can both be restricted. Worth a call to the district council before committing to a material.
Driveways sit alongside our main trade rather than ahead of it. We are fencing and landscaping contractors first, and we are straight about that — if a driveway is all you need, you may be better served by a dedicated surfacing firm, and we will say so. Where a drive forms part of a wider job — a new boundary, gates, levels or a garden being rebuilt — it makes sense to have one team doing the lot.

Are well as being durable it allows good drainage whilst still preventing the growth of weeds or moss, so requires very little maintenance.

They can be one of the cheapest options depending on the current state of your driveway and if you already have a tired tarmac driveway and relatively inexpensive option to bring a new lease of life to your driveway would be to resurface it.
