Driveways in Salford and the surrounding area

Ground conditions change street by street in Salford, so a standard dig-out is a gamble. We excavate, look at what is actually under there, then lay and compact a sub-base to suit it and the weight the drive will take, setting edging, falls and levels before the surface goes down. Block paving, resin bound or tarmac finishes it. That sequence is what stops one corner sinking a year later.

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

Letting a contractor take up the front of your property is worth a few questions first. We price off a visit, we build the base for the ground we actually find rather than to one depth, and the same team sees the job through. That is how we have worked for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Salford included.

We are based in Bolton and cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Salford and the M6 postcodes are close ground for us and we are there regularly. Pendleton, Weaste, Seedley, Irlams o’ th’ Height and Broughton are covered on the same basis.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    Over twenty years of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for careful work and clean sites.

  • A written, itemised quote

    The price comes in writing after the visit, itemised, so the figure you agree to is the figure you pay.

  • The base done properly

    Failures start below the surface, so the sub-base is built for the ground we find and the weight it has to take.

  • The same people throughout

    The same people from the quote to the finish, not a crew you meet on day one.

  • Domestic and commercial

    One driveway or a full commercial car park, both planned and costed the same way.

The price

What affects the price

Every Salford quote follows a free site visit. Ground conditions vary street to street round here, and what is under the old surface is what sets the cost of the base.

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 Pendleton?

Yes. As well as Salford itself we cover Pendleton, Weaste, Seedley, Irlams o’ th’ Height, Broughton. Call 0161 451 0824 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
