Stunning New Driveways in Lewes, Uckfield, Crowborough & All Surrounding Locales | iDig Earthworks Ltd

When a driveway starts to show its age, or is plagued with visible signs of damage, it may be time to consider bringing in a team of trusted landscaping contractors to replace it. If you live or work in Sussex or Kent, iDig Earthworks Ltd are exactly that: a team of veteran landscapers who’ve installed countless driveways over their four decades spent in the industry. This experience shows up in the quality of installation we provide, as well as the smooth and seamless project management you’ll enjoy from first point of contact, till final handover.

The driveways we install in areas around our Eridge base, including Crowborough, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Uckfield, can add serious kerb appeal to properties. What’s more, they can improve day to day usability by safeguarding peoples and vehicles using your drive, or by reducing maintenance requirements if you opt for something that’s simpler to take care of.

Choosing the Right Material for Your Driveway

There are a number of different materials we work with when constructing new driveways. Each has its own unique practical characteristics and aesthetic profile, ensuring you can find something which will meet your needs and suit the architectural style/period of your home. Whichever option you choose, know that our groundwork contractors will also handle all drainage preparation tasks, for example the laying of permeable surfacing, or soakaway installation. This will ensure the end product is fully SUDS compliant.

Prospective clients in the Crowborough, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Uckfield areas can consider the following options:

Block Paving – An incredibly versatile material that can be used to create unique and stylish patterns, block paving is typically manufactured from concrete or clay. With pavers available in different sizes, shapes and colours, you can really get creative. What’s more, block paving driveways are porous, easy to maintain / repair, and impressively durable. In short: a true all-rounder.

Indian Sandstone – Another popular option taking the form of either slabs or pavers, Indian sandstone makes for stunning driveways that offer unrivalled kerb appeal. Tough enough to deal with heavy daily use, and resistant to fading due to UV exposure, this is a premium option that adds a touch of luxury to your property’s approach.

Gravel – Looking for something that’s quick and affordable to install? Consider gravel driveways. Choose from a mix of different aggregates made up of different size and colour stones to establish something that suits your property’s façade, and benefit from a rustic look that suits so many properties around Crowborough, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Uckfield. Gravel driveways also improve security, as persons approaching your property can be heard by that distinctive crunch under foot.

Resin Bound – For a gravel look without the associated maintenance requirements, consider resin bound driveways. Our groundwork contractors install this by mixing dry aggregate with a clear resin, then applying this directly to a prepared sub-base. The end result is an attractive, permeable, smooth surface with no loose stones.

Tarmac – Boasting impressive durability and weather resistance, tarmac driveways are also known for being an affordable option with plenty of appealing practical characteristics. These include resistance to cracking and skidding on the surface. Our groundwork contractors can lay tarmac driveways in a short timeframe, sometimes just a day!

Cobble – Similar to gravel in their traditional aesthetic, cobblestone driveways have all the best characteristics associated with high performance landscaping materials. On top of this, they can last for up to a century when well looked after. Now that’s value.

Concrete – When you want something no frills, a truly tough customer that can put up with constant usage and heavier vehicles, concrete driveways are a fantastic option. This best in class durability and aesthetic neutrality also makes concrete ideal for commercial and industrial properties around Crowborough, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Uckfield.
