Dos & Don’ts from Your Driveway Company in Hove | Adur Driveways & Building Services

Do make an effort to find a distinguished contractor. Picking up the phone and calling the first garden paving, patio laying, groundworks or driveway company you see that covers the Hove area can be unwise. In fact, there are an array of questions you should be looking to ask a contractor before they take on important home improvement projects – and it’s even more essential when you’re investing in something that can prove a fair bit of an investment, like property extensions.

So what should you be asking? How many years of experience they have. Whether they’re insured and offer guarantees. What materials they work with. If their team is qualified and accredited. And, whether you can see some past examples of projects.

We can answer: nearly a century’s experience, yes and yes again, a broad range of quality materials from trusted manufacturers, both qualified and accredited and again, a resounding YES! In fact, over on our Gallery page you’ll see everything from property extensions we’ve completed in Hove, to standalone groundworks tasks, a tarmac driveway and a resin bound driveway, block paving patio laying and garden paving, and all sorts of other fantastic features.

Don’t neglect to consider different materials. We work with a real range of materials, for example with block paving to handle garden paving and patio laying. If you’re bringing us in as your chosen driveway company to restore the approach to your property, you can choose from a resin bound driveway, tarmac driveway, or something more on the utilitarian side like concrete.

By weighing up these different materials, specifically how they’ll look and suit your property’s existing architectural features, the amount of maintenance involved in keeping them ship shape, their durability and lifespan, and other factors such as permeability, you’ll ensure you make the right choice and are pleased for many, many years to come. And it’s not just block paving we work with when garden paving and patio laying, we can also use natural stone, and the aforementioned materials we use in our capacity as the Hove area’s favoured driveway company. Struggling to figure out which will be the best match for you? Simply give us a call for free, expert advice.

Do call up the Adur Driveways & Building Services team. Contacting a driveway company like Adur isn’t an indication you want to get work underway immediately. It’s an opportunity to arrange a site survey, secure a competitive, no obligation quote and generally get the right kind of information and guidance so you can figure out the most effective means of improving your Hove property.

So with that in mind, why not get in contact with us? We’ll be able to answer any questions you might have. And not just on the differences between a tarmac driveway and resin bound driveway, or why block paving is so effective a choice for garden paving and patio laying, but things like whether planning permission from the Brighton & Hove local authority will be required for property extensions, and whether particular forms of groundworks will be required before constructing a feature.
