Driveways for homes in Markham Moor
A driveway is the first thing anyone sees when they pull up outside your house, and it takes more punishment than any other surface on the property. We design and lay driveways from the ground up — lifting the old surface, excavating to the right depth, getting the sub-base and drainage right, then finishing in the material that suits the property. Resin, block paving, or a combination with a contrasting border, edging and a proper threshold. The finish is the part you see; the preparation underneath is the part that decides whether it still looks right in ten years, and it is where we spend the time.
Working in Markham Moor
Markham Moor sits on the A1 between Retford and Tuxford, a small settlement in open Nottinghamshire countryside surrounded by farmland and scattered villages. Properties here tend toward the rural end of the range — older brick and pantile houses, converted farm buildings and detached properties on larger, more open plots than you find in the towns. That brings its own considerations: longer driveway approaches where the surface has to carry heavier vehicles as well as cars, exposed boundaries where planting and walling do genuine work in sheltering a garden, and rear gardens with the space for a properly designed layout rather than a single paved area. Open farmland ground conditions vary, so base build-ups are assessed on site.
