A new driveway is one of the most effective ways to improve your home’s appeal whilst also adding practical benefits that you’ll enjoy every day. As well as creating a smart first impression, a professionally installed exterior surface also provides a safe, durable area for parking, and it can even increase the value of your property.
Old or damaged surfaces can quickly become uneven, cracked, or prone to standing water, making them both unsightly and inconvenient. Investing in a new entrance gives you a surface that’s built to cope with daily use, requires minimal maintenance, and complements the style of your home. With a range of attractive materials available, it’s easy to create an entrance that suits both your property and your budget.
We install a range of high-quality surfaces to suit different styles, requirements and budgets. Whether you prefer the traditional appearance of block paving, the modern finish of resin, or the practical nature of tarmac, we’ll help you choose the right option for your property.
Block paving continues to be one of the most popular choices for homeowners thanks to its attractive appearance, versatility, and long lifespan. Available in a wide variety of colours, sizes and laying patterns, block paving can be tailored to complement both modern and traditional homes.
We believe that a quality driveway starts beneath the surface. Every block-paved top layer is built on a carefully prepared sub-base with securely installed edging kerbs to help prevent movement, sinking, and spreading over time. The result is a durable, attractive entrance area that’s designed to retain its appearance for years to come. Block paving is also easy to maintain, and if individual blocks become damaged, they can usually be replaced without disturbing the rest of the area, making it a practical long-term investment.
Resin offers a sleek, contemporary finish that’s become increasingly popular with homeowners across Lancashire. Created by combining natural stone aggregates with specialist resin, the finished surface is smooth, durable and highly attractive. One of the key advantages of resin is that it allows rainwater to drain naturally through the surface, helping to reduce standing water. It’s also highly resistant to weed growth and provides excellent slip resistance, making it a great choice for busy family homes.
With a wide selection of aggregate colours available, resin layers can be customised to suit your property, whilst decorative borders and patterns can be added to create a truly individual finish. Resin also requires very little maintenance, making it ideal for homeowners looking for an attractive, low-maintenance solution.
Tarmac remains a popular choice for homeowners looking for a durable and cost-effective solution. Its smooth finish and hard-wearing properties make it ideal for entrances that experience regular vehicle traffic. As with any surface, the quality of the installation is just as important as the material itself. That’s why we take great care when preparing the ground, installing a strong sub-base and laying the tarmac to achieve a neat, long-lasting finish.
Tarmac can also be enhanced with decorative block paving borders or contrasting kerbs, giving homeowners the opportunity to combine practicality with improved visual appeal. When installed correctly, a tarmac top layer offers excellent value for money and years of dependable performance.
Choosing the right contractor is just as important as choosing the right surface, and at Local Driveway Company, we have built our reputation on delivering quality workmanship, honest advice, and excellent customer service from start to finish.

In many cases, planning permission is not required for a new driveway. However, if the surface does not allow water to drain naturally and the area is larger than 5 square metres, planning permission may be needed. Permeable options such as resin-bound surfaces can often help meet drainage requirements. If you’re unsure, we can advise you during your quotation.
The best surface depends on your budget, the style of your property, and how you intend to use the area. Block paving offers a traditional appearance with plenty of design flexibility, resin provides a modern and low-maintenance finish, whilst tarmac is a practical and cost-effective choice for larger areas. We are happy to discuss the advantages of each option and recommend the most suitable solution for your home.
Surfaces that allow water to drain effectively are often the best choice for wet conditions. Resin-bound driveways are particularly popular because water can pass through the surface, helping to reduce puddles and standing water. Proper installation and drainage are equally important, regardless of the material chosen, to ensure long-term performance during periods of heavy rainfall.
Tarmac and block paving both provide durable parking areas, but they offer different benefits. Tarmac is generally more affordable and quicker to install, making it a popular option for larger driveways. Block paving provides greater design flexibility, with a wide range of colours, patterns and styles available. It also allows individual blocks to be replaced if repairs are ever needed, whereas damaged tarmac usually requires a larger section to be repaired.
The cost of a resin driveway varies depending on factors such as the size of the area, ground preparation requirements, access to the property, and the aggregate finish selected. As a guide, resin driveways are often more expensive than tarmac but can be comparable to premium block paving installations. The best way to obtain an accurate price is to get a tailored quotation based on your specific requirements.
