Your driveway is the first thing anyone sees — and a smart new one adds real kerb appeal, off-road parking and value. Spruce Brothers install block-paved and premium driveways across Aldershot, Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire, laid on a proper engineered base and finished to last.
Driveways built on a proper base
A driveway has to carry the weight of vehicles for decades, so what happens beneath the surface matters most. We excavate to the correct depth, lay and compact a full sub-base, fit solid edge restraints and finish with your chosen surface — the layered build that stops a driveway from sinking, rutting or spreading. Every driveway is backed by our promise: love your driveway, or get your money back.
Driveway types we install
Block paving
Our most popular choice — hard-wearing, endlessly repairable (individual blocks lift and re-lay) and available in a huge range of colours, sizes and laying patterns. Add a contrasting border or a bound edge for a premium finish.
Natural stone setts & premium pavers
For a high-end, characterful look, granite setts and clay pavers bring depth and longevity that lift the whole frontage of a property.
Gravel & permeable driveways
Gravel and permeable systems are cost-effective, great for drainage and ideal where a front driveway needs to manage rainwater on your own land under permitted-development rules.
How much does a driveway cost?
As a guide, a professionally installed block-paved driveway costs around £100 per square metre, including excavation, sub-base, edging and jointing. Typical project ranges:
| Driveway size | Approx. area | Typical installed cost |
|---|---|---|
| Small (1 car) | 20 – 30 m² | £2,500 – £3,500 |
| Medium (2 cars) | 40 – 50 m² | £4,000 – £5,500 |
| Large | 60 – 80 m² | £6,500 – £9,000 |

Most driveways fall under permitted development, but a front driveway over 5 m² must manage rainwater on your own property — usually with permeable materials or a soakaway — rather than letting it run onto the road. We build this in as standard and advise you at the survey, so your driveway is compliant as well as good-looking. If you need a new or widened dropped kerb, we can guide you through arranging it with the council.
