Driveways, patios & frontages

From resurfacing an existing driveway to completely transforming the front or rear of a property, we provide a complete service.


That covers excavation, ground preparation, drainage and ground stabilisation through to the finished surface and surrounding hard landscaping.

With over 45 years of industry experience within our family-run business, we understand that a driveway or external area needs to do more than look good. Correct preparation beneath the surface is essential if the finished area is going to perform well for years to come.

What we do

Domestic Surfacing Solutions


We provide a wide range of surfacing options to complement different styles of property, budgets and practical requirements.

Before recommending an appropriate solution, we'll discuss:

  • How the area will be used
  • The style of finish you're looking for
  • The condition of the existing ground

Our domestic services include:

Smart & low-maintenance

Tarmac Driveways


Tarmac is a practical and durable choice for residential driveways and works particularly well for larger areas where homeowners want a smart, relatively low-maintenance finish.

Surfco Midlands can construct completely new tarmac driveways or resurface suitable existing areas.

The quality of a tarmac driveway depends heavily on the preparation beneath it. We ensure the ground and sub-base are properly prepared and compacted before the asphalt is installed.

A finished driveway, not just a new surfaceEdging, drainage and transitions to existing paths, roads or garages are also considered as part of the overall installation.
Decorative & contemporary

Resin-Bound Driveways


Resin-bound surfacing provides a decorative alternative to traditional tarmac and is available in a wide range of aggregate colours and finishes.

It can be used for driveways, pathways, patios and other areas around the home, creating a smooth and contemporary appearance.

Where a permeable construction is required, the complete build-up beneath the resin needs to be considered to ensure the system performs correctly.

City & Guilds

Surfco Midlands has City & Guilds training in resin-bound surfacing and can advise on the preparation and construction required for the proposed area.

Block Paving & Paved Driveways


Block paving provides homeowners with considerable flexibility in colour, pattern and design.

It can be used for complete driveways or combined with other materials to create borders, pathways and detailing around tarmac or resin surfaces.

As a Tobermore Approved Contractor, Surfco Midlands can provide professionally installed paving solutions with particular attention given to preparation, levels, drainage and finishing.

The part you can't see

Ground Preparation & Stabilisation


A driveway is only as reliable as the ground beneath it.

Poor or unstable ground can result in these regardless of the quality of the finished surface:

  • Settlement
  • Movement
  • Depressions
  • Cracking

Where necessary, we can excavate unsuitable material, undertake ground improvement or stabilisation and construct an appropriate sub-base before the finished driveway is installed.

We don't believe in simply covering over an underlying problem. If we identify poor ground conditions during the project, we'll explain what we've found and recommend the appropriate solution.

Indicative build-up. The construction depends on the surface and the ground.

Looks good, works properly

Driveway Drainage Solutions


Drainage is an important consideration when constructing or extending a driveway.

The finished levels and falls need to manage rainwater effectively while taking account of:

  • The property
  • Surrounding landscaping
  • The highway

Where required, Surfco Midlands can incorporate drainage solutions as part of the driveway construction.

Considering drainage from the beginning of the project helps prevent problems such as standing water and ensures the new driveway works properly as well as looking good.
