    Designed around your home

    A driveway designed around your home

    Your driveway is one of the first things people see when they arrive at your home. The right design should complement the property while providing enough room for parking, opening car doors and reaching your entrance comfortably.

    We can help you rethink an awkward layout, replace tired paving or create a new entrance that suits your home. From traditional properties to contemporary houses, the choice of block colours, laying patterns and edging details can make a real difference to the finished appearance.

    Every driveway we design and install is tailored to the customer. We discuss how you use the space, the look you want and the practical considerations before agreeing the proposed work.

    Choose the right finish

    The details that make it yours

    Colours & patterns

    Choose block colours that complement your brickwork, boundary walls and front garden. We can talk through laying patterns and contrasting tones to create a finish that suits your property.

    Borders & details

    A well-chosen border gives the driveway a defined edge and can help separate parking areas from paths or planting. We can discuss details that bring the entrance together.

    Parking & access

    Consider the room needed for vehicles, pedestrian access and reaching your front door. We can help plan a layout that balances everyday convenience with an attractive finish.

    Experienced driveway installers

    More than a good-looking surface

    A driveway needs to work as well as it looks. Careful preparation and a suitable foundation are central to the installation, with the construction planned around the existing ground and how the driveway will be used.

    We consider levels and surface water drainage as part of the design. Existing drains and inspection covers also need attention so that they remain accessible and sit neatly within the finished paving. Where changes are needed, we can discuss the work required.

    Whether replacing an old surface or preparing a new area, our experienced team focuses on the groundwork as well as the visible finish. Our work is guaranteed for 10 years and we hold public liability insurance.

    Customer feedback

    What our driveway customers say

    “We have a small hotel in St Albans and we needed a new driveway to improve the entrance and that first impression that our guests will have of us. We had recently refurbished many of the rooms and also the bar and dining area but it was the outside that really needed to be improved. We had a block paving drive installed and it is absolutely amazing. They even laid some new turf around the edges for us to complete the look. The comments we have had from some of our regular guests has been so complimentary. Superb company!”

    Commercial Customer

    St. Albans

    “The whole team were brilliant from the outset and my entire family are extrememly pleased with the end result. We really thought that the upheaval of having people coming in and out of the house for days would be stressful but it was made to feel so easy and relaxed and they were no trouble at all. They even let me 8 year old son lay a few of the blocks which he was so happy about! Obviously his handy work was corrected afterwards! lol I honestly couuldn’t recommend them any higher and have already passed on their details.”

    Domestic Customer

    St Albans, Hertfordshire

    “What an amazing job! St Albans Block Paving replaced our mess of an old drive with an impressive block paved one. We were on a bit of a tight deadline as we were going away and wanted it to be finished before we left. They pulled out all the stops for us and managed to get the job completed the day before that deadline. A charming company with highly skilled hard workers.”

    New driveways, replacements & extensions

    If your existing driveway looks tired or no longer provides the space you need, a replacement or extension may be worth considering. We can discuss the current layout, access and the preparation needed to create a practical new surface.

    Block paving offers plenty of scope to personalise the design. For an extension, the choice of blocks and borders can help connect the additional area with the existing driveway, subject to the materials available.
