Local Coverage
Serving Epsom and the Surrounding Area
We work with homeowners in Epsom and nearby areas such as Woodcote, Stamford Green, Epsom Downs, Horton, Langley Vale and Stoneleigh, along with neighbouring parts of Ewell, broadly covering the KT17, KT18 and KT19 postcode districts.
Properties in these areas vary in age, frontage style and ground conditions, so each driveway is assessed individually rather than assuming one standard approach suits every address.
That means looking at the existing surface, access, drainage and how the finished driveway should sit alongside the property before recommending how the work should be carried out.

Common Questions
Block Paving Driveway Questions from Epsom Homeowners
Does Block Paving Driveways Epsom only work on driveways in Epsom?
Block Paving Driveways Epsom specialises in block paved driveways for homeowners in Epsom.
The whole service, from installation to repairs, is built around this one type of driveway in this one area.
Do I need planning permission to block pave my driveway?
Whether a new or replacement block paving driveway needs planning permission usually depends on the size of the impermeable area and how surface water is managed.
Epsom & Ewell Borough Council treats a new or replacement driveway using a non-permeable surface over a certain size as needing planning permission where surface water is not directed to a permeable area, such as a lawn, soakaway or similar feature.
Creating a new vehicle access or dropped kerb can also involve separate crossover requirements, which the council administers together with Surrey County Council as the local highways authority.
Because these rules depend on the specific driveway, it is worth checking current guidance on the Epsom & Ewell Borough Council website before work begins.
Is it cheaper to block pave or tarmac a driveway?
Tarmac is usually less expensive to install than block paving, mainly because tarmac is laid as one continuous surface while block paving is laid unit by unit.
Block paving is comparatively straightforward to repair, since individual blocks can be lifted and re-laid rather than needing a new surface applied.
This site specialises in block paving driveways, so if you are comparing the two options, it is worth getting a quote for each from a specialist in that particular surface.
How long will a block paved driveway last?
A block paved driveway can last for many years when it is built on a properly prepared sub-base and looked after appropriately.
The exact lifespan depends on ground conditions, drainage, usage and how well it was constructed in the first place. What happens below the surface has a bigger effect on how long paving lasts than the blocks themselves.
Can sunken or loose block paving be repaired?
Sunken or loose block paving can often be repaired by lifting the affected blocks, correcting the underlying base or edge restraint issue, and re-laying to the correct levels.
See block paving repairs in Epsom for more detail.
What is the difference between permeable and standard block paving?
Permeable block paving allows surface water to pass through the paved construction when the full system, including the sub-base, is designed for permeability.
Standard block paving relies on falls and drainage routes to carry water away from the surface instead. See permeable block paving in Epsom for more on how this can affect your driveway.
Can existing block paving be lifted and reused rather than replaced?
Existing block paving can often be lifted and reused when the blocks remain in serviceable condition and any underlying base issues are corrected before relaying.
See lifting and relaying block paving in Epsom for more detail.
