Driveways in Wigan and the surrounding area
There is nowhere proper to park, so cars sit half on the grass and the front of the house is churned up. We dig out the existing surface 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. We take on Wigan frontages from a single drive through to 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 been laying driveways and surfacing in Wigan and across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire for over 20 years. 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 worth knowing how we work first. We look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and the same team is with you from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
Wigan and the WN1 postcodes are somewhere we work regularly. Our base is in Bolton, covering Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and that reaches out past Wigan to Up Holland, Skelmersdale, Burscough, Downholland Cross and Aughton. All of them are covered from the same base as the town.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have laid driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West for two decades, and people know us for quality workmanship and reliable, tidy jobs.
A written, itemised quote
We come and see the job, then give you the price in writing, so there are no surprises once we start work.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath, so we build the base for the ground we actually find rather than one standard dig-out for every job.
The same people throughout
You get the same team from the quote to the last day, so the people who priced the job are the people doing it.
Domestic and commercial
We handle a single driveway and a full car park the same way, planning and pricing each with the same care.
The price
What affects the price
We price Wigan jobs after a free site visit rather than off a description, so what you are quoted is based on the work that is actually in front of us.
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
