Driveways in Altrincham and the surrounding area
Rain runs the wrong way and ends up pooling against the house, because nobody set the levels before the surface went down. A driveway lasts as long as what sits under it, so we dig out the existing surface and lay and compact a sub-base to suit the ground and the weight it will carry. We set the edging, falls and levels first, then finish in block paving, resin bound or tarmac. Your Altrincham drive sheds water properly, from a single bay through to a multi-car frontage.
A well-designed driveway is the first thing anyone sees, and it sets the tone for the whole property. We help you create one to suit the house, using quality materials and getting the detail right, whether that is block paving, resin bound, or tarmac finished with a paved border.
What’s included
- Excavation of the existing surface and muck-away
- A compacted sub-base sized for the ground and the traffic
- Edge restraints and kerbing set to line and level
- Falls set before the surface goes down
- Your choice of block paving, resin bound or tarmac finish

Why us
Why choose THB Contractors
We have been laying driveways and surfacing across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire for over 20 years, and we work in Altrincham regularly. You are trusting us to dig up the front of your house, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it helps to know how we work before you commit. We look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you see the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
We are based in Bolton and work right across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Altrincham and the WA14 postcodes are part of that patch, and we are there regularly rather than now and then. The villages around it are covered on the same basis: Dunham Town, High Legh, Over Tabley, Smithy Green and Peover Heath are all within reach.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have spent two decades laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and we have built our name on quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
We come out and look at the job first, then put the price in writing, so nothing surprises you once the work starts.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base for the ground we find on your job, not to a one-size dig-out.
The same people throughout
You deal with the same team all the way through, from the quote visit to the day we finish and clear the site.
Domestic and commercial
We take on everything from a single driveway to a full car park, and we price and plan each one the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
We price every Altrincham job after a free site visit, so what you get is a price for the work in front of us rather than a guess worked out from a description.
The main things that move the figure:
- The size of the driveway and how much has to be dug out
- Access for machinery and where the spoil can go
- The finish you choose and the base the ground needs
- Whether new edgings or kerbing are part of the job
