Staple Driveway Construction

All of our driveways that we construct for our clients are done so using quality approved materials and not cheap alternatives that are available.

We work with all the relevant operating licenses which are required for us to legitimately undertake work at your property.

We advise that you treat your new driveway in the same way that you would treat a brand new expensive carpet, if you spilt a drink on a new expensive carpet you would automatically clean it up so we recommend that you keep your driveway clean and maintained.

If driveways are cleaned and maintained properly they will last for years to come, saving you money in the future, we recommend that you give your driveway a light brush over once every 8-10 weeks to remove any debris or moss to prolong the life of your driveway.

The process of driveway construction

Please take a look at the photos on our website that show the before and after images of some of the driveways we have constructed and installed, we also have photos up that show the different stage throughout the entire process of driveway construction.

The process of driveway construction consists of 7 main stages these are as follows:

Step one

We clear the site and evacuate the ground to the appropriate depth.

Step two

We lay a membrane.

Step three

We then level and compact the sub base to the appropriate measurements.

Step four

Then we lay the edges on the lean mix concrete.

Step five

We screed the sand to the paving area and then we lay the paving.

Step six

Out the paving and adjust lay man whole covers and gulleys.

Step seven

Finally we sand the area with kiln dried sand.


These stages are flexible so depending on the needs of our client they will change. We believe that a driveway should only be laid once so we like to get it perfect first time. To get it right first time we have to be flexible with the stages of driveway construction and the process so that we can meet the needs of our clients individually.

Driveway Maintenance Tips & Tricks

Cleaning your driveway and keeping up good maintenance is vital in prolonging the life of your new driveway. In this section we will provide you with some useful tips and helpful advice regarding your new driveway, we will also include some frequently asked questions.

A driveway is often one of the most forgotten investments of your home, we remember to wax the floor, insure the house or car, stain proof the carpet and furniture paint the walls but we often forget to maintain and tend to our driveways, and they can be one of the most rewarding investments to own, as they last for decades if taken care of properly and are sufficiently maintained, which will save you money on driveway repairs or replacement driveway.

To give your driveway a general clean and remove dirt or algae you should vigorously brush your driveway using a stiff yard broom with plenty of hot detergent solution for example washing up liquid or non-bio washing powder, and then thoroughly rinse the driveway with clean water. This shouldn't take you very long so it is well worth finding 15minutes just to tend to your driveway and in years to come you will receive the benefits.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What do I do if I spill oil on my driveway?

A: washing liquid is fine to use on driveways to clean up any spillages, for other spillages, such as paint or cement we can apply a special substances for removal if it is a fairly minor spillage.

Q: Are there any Do’s or Don’ts?

A: we recommend you don’t apply salt directly to the surface of your drive way, if salts appear on your driveway just give us a call as they can be treated quickly and easily.
