It is a place of very mixed housing: the older brick properties around the Market Square and along the river at Eynesbury, long runs of post-war and 1960s–70s estate housing, and the newer developments at Loves Farm and Wintringham where gardens were handed over as bare ground or a thin strip of turf over builders' spoil. Those three groups need completely different work. Older properties usually mean tight access, original boundary walls and drives that have been resurfaced more than once over the years. Estate housing tends to mean narrow concrete or tarmac drives that families have long since outgrown. New-builds mean starting from scratch: levels, drainage and a proper base before anything gets laid at all. Whichever of those describes your house, the job we quote is the whole job: the old surface excavated and taken away, a compacted sub-base, edgings, drainage, your chosen surface and a full clean-up at the end. ### Properties we work on here Period and older brick properties around the Market Square and Eynesbury - Riverside homes near the Great Ouse - Post-war and 1960s–70s estate housing - Newer estates at Loves Farm, Wintringham and Eaton Socon - Bungalows and semis with narrow original driveways What we do in St Neots ## Services available in St Neots 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 St Neots homeowners usually call about ### Widening drives for a second car A great deal of St Neots housing was built with a single-car drive and a front lawn. Turning that lawn into off-street parking is one of the most common jobs we are called out for here. ### Replacing worn block paving The block paving laid across the town's estates through the 1990s and 2000s is now well past its base life, wheel-track dips, weeds and rocking blocks are all signs of a sub-base that has gone rather than blocks that have worn. ### Finishing new-build gardens Homes at Loves Farm and Wintringham are regularly handed over with compacted ground and no patio. Those gardens need levels and drainage sorting before any turf or paving goes down. ### Drainage near the river Ground toward the Ouse holds water, and a new hard surface has to be set out with falls and drainage that take rainwater away from the house rather than leaving it sitting. Local conditions ## The problems that come with building in St Neots 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. ### Low-lying ground and water St Neots sits on the Great Ouse, and the lower parts of town drain slowly. Surfaces laid without falls or drainage pond after heavy rain, and that standing water is what eventually washes out the base beneath. ### Compacted new-build plots New estate gardens are usually left heavily compacted by site traffic, with topsoil spread thinly on top. Turf laid straight onto that never takes, and paving laid onto it settles. ### Older drives resurfaced over old drives On the older streets we regularly dig out two or three layers of previous surfacing. Adding another layer on top is quicker, but it buries the reason the drive failed. Coverage ## The St Neots area we cover As well as St Neots itself we work throughout Eaton Ford, Eaton Socon, Eynesbury, Loves Farm, Wintringham and the villages around the town: Little Paxton, Great Paxton, Abbotsley, Croxton and out toward Buckden and Offord. Because St Neots sits between Bedford, Huntingdon and Cambridge, most of our work in any given week is within a short run of here, which makes it straightforward to come out and look at a job properly rather than pricing it blind from a photograph. Work can be carried out through most of the year here. Excavation and base work are less affected by weather than people expect; what matters more is that the base is properly compacted and the drainage set before the surface goes on, whatever the season. Choosing a surface ## What tends to suit St Neots homes Surface choice in St Neots comes down to the house and the ground. Resin bound gives a smooth, seamless finish that suits newer properties and drains well, which matters on the lower-lying parts of town. Block paving suits traditional frontages and can be lifted and relaid if a service ever has to be dug up. Tarmac remains the most practical answer for long or heavily used drives, and concrete imprint gives a patterned finish in one continuous surface. For patios, porcelain stays clean and colour-stable in the shade found in many of the older, enclosed gardens, while Indian sandstone suits the brick of the town's period properties. Martin will go through the options with you at the site visit, including what he would not recommend for your particular ground.
