Driveways in Leyland and the surrounding area

You know the drive needs doing, but you are stuck on the finish and nobody has explained what sits underneath any of them. 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 before the surface goes down, so water runs away from the house. Then you choose block paving, resin bound or tarmac for your Leyland drive, single or multi-car.

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 worked across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire for over 20 years, and Leyland is a regular stop for our driveway and surfacing work. You are trusting someone to dig up the front of your property, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it is fair to want to know how we work first. We look properly before we price, we build the base around the ground we actually find, and the same team stays with the job from the first visit to the last sweep-up.

From our base in Bolton we cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Leyland is one of the Lancashire towns we are in regularly. That takes in the PR25 postcodes and the areas around them: Farington, Bamber Bridge, Buckshaw Village and Lostock Hall are all part of the same run for us.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    We have spent twenty years laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and we are known for quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.

  • A written, itemised quote

    We put the price in writing after the site visit, so you are not caught out by anything once the job is under way.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base to suit the ground we find rather than handing every job the same dig-out.

  • The same people throughout

    You are not passed around. The same team handles your job from the quote through to the day it finishes.

  • Domestic and commercial

    We give a single driveway the same care we give a full car park, both in how we price it and how we plan the work.

The price

What affects the price

We quote your Leyland job once we have been out to see it, and the visit costs you nothing. The price then matches the work in front of us instead of a guess off 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

Common questions

Which finish should I choose?

It depends on the look you want, the budget and the ground. We go through block paving, resin and tarmac at the visit and tell you what suits, rather than pushing one finish.

Can you lay over my existing driveway?

Only where the base underneath is sound. Laying over a failing base is the main reason a driveway breaks up early, so we check it first and tell you honestly.

How long does a driveway take?

Most domestic driveways are a few days depending on size, the finish and the weather. You get a realistic duration with the quote.
