Driveways in Eccles and the surrounding area
The drive has sunk in the wheel tracks and cracked across the middle, and it only goes one way from here. We dig out the existing surface, then lay and compact a sub-base to suit the ground and the weight it will carry. We set the edging, falls and levels before any surface goes down, so water runs where it should rather than pooling against the house. You finish in block paving, resin bound or tarmac, on Eccles drives from a single bay 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
You are trusting us to dig up the front of your property, or take a car park out of use for a few days. It is worth knowing how we work before that happens: we look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you get the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up. We have been doing it that way for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Eccles included.
We work out of Bolton and cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Eccles and the M30 postcodes fall well inside that, and we are there regularly rather than occasionally. Halebarns, Shelf, Boothtown, Northowram and Ovenden are covered on the same basis, whichever side of the town you happen to be on.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have laid driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West for over twenty years, and built a reputation for quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
After we have seen the job, you get the price in writing, so nothing about the cost changes shape once the work begins.
The base done properly
Surfaces nearly always fail from underneath, so we size and build the base for the ground we actually find rather than digging out to a standard depth.
The same people throughout
You keep the same team throughout, from the person who quotes the job to the people finishing it on the last day.
Domestic and commercial
From one driveway to a full car park, we price and plan the work the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Eccles quote follows a free site visit. We would rather stand on the job and price the work that is actually in front of us than guess at it 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
