Overview
Driveways in Guildford
A new driveway is only as good as what's underneath it. If your current drive has sunk, cracked, or turned into a puddle every time it rains, the problem usually started at the sub-base, not the surface. Hills Driveways & Patios installs block paving, resin bound and gravel driveways across Guildford, and we build every one on a proper compacted sub-base with drainage that actually works, so it stays looking right for years rather than months.
We're Checkatrade-approved driveway installers, and we handle the whole job ourselves from the first site visit to the final clean-down, so there's no juggling between different trades and no confusion about who's responsible for what.

What Our Guildford Customers Say
Options
Driveway Installation Services in Guildford
Every driveway we lay in Guildford starts the same way: excavation, a compacted free-draining sub-base, and levels set so surface water runs to a soakaway or drainage channel rather than pooling on the drive or draining towards the house. On top of that, you choose the finish.
Block Paving Driveways
Block paving driveways are durable, easy to repair section by section, and available in a wide range of colours and laying patterns. If you want a classic finish that's simple to maintain, this is usually the first place Guildford homeowners look.

Resin Bound Driveways
Resin bound driveways give a smooth, seamless, permeable surface with no loose stones. They're a popular choice in Guildford for a modern look that also drains well, which can help avoid planning permission issues on non-permeable surfaces.

Gravel Driveways
Gravel driveways are the most cost-effective option and drain freely on their own. With the right sub-base and edge restraints, a gravel drive in Guildford can last for years without spreading or rutting.

New Driveway installers Guildford
If your current driveway is beyond repair, whether it's cracked, sunken, or simply outdated, a full new driveway gives you a clean start rather than patching over problems that will keep coming back. We remove the old surface completely, correct any underlying sub-base or drainage issues that caused it to fail in the first place, and build a new driveway from the ground up in your chosen surface.
This is the right option when repairs would only be a short-term fix, or when you're changing the layout, size or surface type entirely.
