That variety means the same request, a new driveway, turns into very different work depending on the street. An older terrace needs a careful, tightly set-out frontage. A 1970s semi usually needs an original drive dug out and rebuilt from the base up. A recent estate house often needs the garden brought up to a usable state for the first time. Every one of those jobs follows the same sequence and the same terms: we buy the materials, we do the groundwork, we take the waste away, and you pay nothing until it is finished and you are happy with it. ### Properties we work on here Victorian terraces close to the town centre - Interwar and post-war estate housing - 1970s and 1980s family housing at Weston Favell, Abington and Kingsthorpe - Modern estates on the town's edges - Village properties in the surrounding Northamptonshire countryside What we do in Northampton ## Services available in Northampton Every one of these is quoted as a complete job: materials, excavation, sub-base, edgings, drainage and waste removal all in the same price. ### Resin Bound Driveways Smooth, permeable resin bound surfacing laid over a properly prepared base.

More on groundwork, drainage & foundations Common jobs here ## What Northampton homeowners usually call about ### Full driveway replacement Original drives on the town's older estates are generally on bases that have finished their working life, which is why they rut, dip and rock rather than simply looking tired. ### Multi-car parking Households running two or three vehicles need the whole frontage reworked, with edge restraints and drainage sized for the extra load and surface area. ### Large patios and garden schemes Bigger estate gardens often get done as one scheme: patio, lawn, sleeper beds, a wall and new fencing, which is far neater than doing it a piece at a time. ### Drainage on flat, built-up plots Where a lot of a plot has been hard-surfaced over the years, rainwater has nowhere to go. Permeable surfaces and proper drainage change that. Local conditions ## The problems that come with building in Northampton Ground, drainage, building age and access all change what a job needs. These are the things we look at when we come out to you. ### Clay ground and seasonal movement Ground that shrinks in summer and swells in winter is unforgiving of a thin sub-base. Depth and compaction are what keep a surface flat through that cycle. ### Sloping plots across the town Northampton is not flat. Falling frontages and stepped gardens need retaining, steps and carefully set falls rather than a surface simply following the ground. ### Decades of layered surfacing On the older streets we routinely dig out several generations of previous drive. Removing it, rather than laying over it, is the only way the new surface starts on something sound. Coverage ## The Northampton area we cover We cover Northampton across the town: Weston Favell, Abington, Kingsthorpe, Duston, Far Cotton, Hardingstone and the newer estates on every edge, plus the surrounding Northamptonshire villages. Northampton sits alongside Wellingborough and Rushden in our working area, so we are in this part of the county regularly. Bigger schemes, covering patio, lawn, walls and fencing together, are best set out as one job so the levels work across the whole garden and each element finishes properly into the next. Choosing a surface ## What tends to suit Northampton homes With housing this varied, the right surface changes street by street. Block paving suits traditional frontages and gives a repairable surface. Resin bound gives a seamless, free-draining finish that works well on plots where a lot of ground has already been hard-surfaced and rainwater has nowhere to go. Tarmac is the practical choice for long or heavily used drives, and concrete imprint gives a patterned finish in one continuous pour. In gardens, porcelain and Indian sandstone cover most patio work, with sleepers, retaining walls and steps handling the level changes that are common across the town.

Common questions ## Northampton: questions we get asked Do you cover Northampton?Yes, across the town and the surrounding Northamptonshire villages. How much does a new driveway cost in Northampton?Prices depend on the size of the area, the surface you choose and what has to be dug out first, so every job in Northampton is quoted after a site visit rather than priced over the phone. The visit and the quote are free and carry no obligation. Do you need a deposit before starting?No. There is no deposit and no payment of any kind until the job is finished and you are happy with it. We buy all the materials ourselves up front. They simply stay ours until the job is paid for, which is what lets us ask nothing of you until the work is finished. Is the work guaranteed?All our work carries a 5-year workmanship guarantee covering everything but fair wear and tear, given directly by us rather than through a third-party scheme. Which driveway surfaces do you lay?Resin bound, tarmac, block paving, concrete imprint and resin gravel, all laid over a properly prepared and compacted base. Can you do the whole garden in one go?Yes: patio, lawn, sleepers, walls and fencing set out together so the levels work as one scheme and each part finishes properly into the next. My drive floods in heavy rain: can you fix it?Falls and drainage are formed as part of the build, and permeable surfaces can be used where run-off needs reducing. It is worked out once Martin has seen the ground. Do you remove the old driveway and all the waste?Yes, it comes out and goes away with us, and the site is cleaned up at the end. How do I get a quote?Call or message Martin and he will arrange a time to come out. The visit and the quote are free and there is no obligation.
