FAQ Section
1. How long does a concrete driveway last?
With proper installation and basic maintenance, a concrete driveway can last many years, often several decades.
2. Why is my concrete driveway cracking?
Cracks can be caused by poor base preparation, movement in the ground, heavy loads, lack of joints or weather-related expansion and contraction.
3. Can a cracked concrete driveway be repaired?
Yes. Smaller cracks and damaged sections can often be repaired or patched, and some driveways can be resurfaced instead of fully replaced.
4. Do you remove old concrete driveways?
We can break out and remove old concrete driveways, dispose of the waste and prepare the area for a new installation.
5. How much does a concrete driveway cost per m²?
Our concrete driveway services start from £110 per m² for 10 sqm or more, with final costs depending on access, thickness and reinforcement.
6. Can I change the layout or position of my driveway?
In many cases yes. We can discuss driveway relocation or widening as part of a new concrete installation, subject to access and any local rules.
7. How long before I can drive on a new concrete driveway?
Concrete needs time to cure. Light foot traffic is usually fine after a short period, but vehicle use typically requires several days or more depending on conditions.
