Driveways in Standish and the surrounding area
Two cars and a van stand on it daily, and the surface is breaking up under weight it was never built to carry. We dig out what is there and lay and compact a sub-base to suit the ground and the weight it will carry, then finish in block paving, resin bound or tarmac. We set the edging, falls and levels before any surface goes down, so water runs where it should rather than pooling against the house. Your Standish frontage takes the traffic, single drive 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
You are trusting us to dig up the front of your property, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it is worth knowing how we work before you book anything. We have been at it for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Standish included. We take a proper look before we price, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and the same team is on the job from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
Standish and the WN6 postcodes are regular ground for us. We are based in Bolton, and the area we work covers Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, which puts the villages either side of Standish inside it as well. Wrightington Bar, Eccleston, Newburgh, Mawdesley, Pinfold and New Lane are all covered.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have laid driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West for over twenty years, and we have earned a reputation for quality workmanship and reliable, tidy jobs.
A written, itemised quote
You get the price in writing once we have seen the job, so there is nothing to surprise you after the work starts.
The base done properly
Because most surfaces fail from underneath, we build the base for the ground we find on site instead of a one-size dig-out.
The same people throughout
You deal with the same team the whole way through, from the visit where we quote to the day we pack up.
Domestic and commercial
We give a single driveway the same planning and pricing as a full car park, so the small jobs are no less carefully run.
The price
What affects the price
We do not price a Standish job off a description. We come out, look at it, and quote from what is actually there, and the site visit costs you nothing.
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
