Driveways in Sale and the surrounding area

Tree roots and a thin base account for most of the drives we are called to in Sale. We excavate, take out what has failed, then lay and compact a sub-base sized for the ground and the weight going over it, setting edging, falls and levels before the finish goes on. Block paving, resin bound or tarmac, whichever suits the house. Water then runs away from the building rather than towards it.

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

Before anyone starts lifting your drive it is worth knowing how they go about the work. We price after seeing it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and the people quoting are the people laying. That has been the way for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Sale included.

We work out of Bolton across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Sale is well inside that. The M33 postcodes are regular ground, as are Brooklands, Ashton upon Mersey, Sale Moor, Timperley and Northenden, covered from the same base.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    Over two decades of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a name built on quality work and tidy sites.

  • A written, itemised quote

    After the visit the price arrives written and itemised, so there are no surprises once work begins.

  • The base done properly

    A surface fails from below, so the dig-out and base are built for the ground in front of us and what will be driving on it.

  • The same people throughout

    The same faces throughout, from the quote to the day we finish.

  • Domestic and commercial

    A single drive or a commercial surface, both planned the same careful way.

The price

What affects the price

A free site visit comes first on every Sale job. Trees and what their roots have done to the ground can change the work considerably, and that is something to see rather than estimate.

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.

Do you offer driveways near Brooklands?

Yes. As well as Sale itself we cover Brooklands, Ashton upon Mersey, Sale Moor, Timperley, Northenden. Call 0161 451 0824 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
