Driveways in Dorking
A market town in the Mole Valley, circled by Box Hill, Leith Hill and some of the most photographed landscape in Surrey. The built environment tries to match.
Driveways in Dorking
A driveway carries weight, sheds water and frames the front of the house — all while being the thing most visitors see first. We build in block paving, resin-bound, brick sett and natural stone, each on a sub-base engineered to carry what needs carrying.
Our process
- 01
Site survey — assess vehicle loads, measure the area, check falls and drainage routes.
- 02
Specification — choose the surface material, agree edging detail, confirm layout.
- 03
Groundworks — excavate, lay sub-base in compacted layers, install edge restraints.
- 04
Surface — lay the chosen material, cut to line, compact or finish as required.
- 05
Drainage and finish — connect to existing drainage or install new, clean and handover.
Materials we use
- Clay block pavers (herringbone, stretcher, basket-weave)
- Resin-bound aggregate
- Natural stone setts
- Brick setts
- Granite sett edging and borders
Typical timeline
Two to three weeks on site for a standard domestic drive.
About Dorking
Period properties in the centre, larger detached houses on the slopes. Gardens often contend with chalk, flint and steep gradients.
The western limit of our Surrey coverage — we take projects here for the right scope.
Common questions
Block paving is more traditional, repairable in sections, and suits period properties. Resin-bound is seamless, permeable, and often preferred for a clean contemporary look. Both last well when laid on the right base.
