Mr & Mrs Brunskill, Harrogate

The Challenge:

Mr & Mrs Brunskill wanted to improve an old driveway, enhance the value of their home and extend the drive to create two parking spaces. We discussed with them a number of options and prices and they chose a Marshalls paver – the 10-year guarantee was seen as a benefit as they could use this when they come to sell the house.

We suggested a grey paver that complimented the colour of their house.

The old block driveway was then dug up and the garden was cleared.

The Results:

The ground was prepared and the new blocks laid, because of the slope we installed a channel drain along the front edge of the new drive to help with the drainage.

Mr and Mrs Brunskill were so pleased with the results that they decided to extend the block paving down the side of the house replacing some old flags.

The installation was complete within one week of us removing the existing damaged driveway.

Mr Brunskill commented: “The colour and choice of the paver has really set the house off.”

Mr Singh, Bradford

The Challenge:

Mr Singh wanted to remove the lawn in front of his house and create a large parking space. We discussed with him a number of options and prices and he chose a Marshalls product with the Marshalls 10-year guarantee.

We suggested a grey paver that complimented the colour of his house.

The garden was then dug up and the ground prepared.

The Results:

Soil removed, sub-foundation laid and compacted and the new blocks laid. Because of the slope, we installed a channel drain along the front edge of the drive to help with the drainage.

The installation was completed within a week of us removing the existing garden.

Mr Singh commented: “We will be the envy of our neighbours.”

Mr Bass, Morley

The Challenge:

Mr Bass decided he would like to remove the front lawn of his house and replace this with a large, sloped parking space.

He chose a grey paver and sand coloured walling surrounding the driveway.

The Results:

We dug up the front lawn and prepared it for the slightly sloped driveway to be installed. We also installed a channel drain at the bottom of the driveway to help with drainage due to the slope.

The footpath was lowered to make a road crossing

Walling was added around the driveway to complete the desired look.

Block paving of Driveway , path and patio

“I got the name of Crown Driveways via a recommendation from a family friend. When Tony came to quote for the job he spoke with real knowledge and experience and I felt comfortable in trusting him with the work. This was in contrast to other quotes I received where I felt they were trying to do the job as soon as possible without due care. The quote I received was fixed at the time of order and was very reasonable for the amount of work involved. The work was performed to an exceptional standard and I was kept informed at all stages of the next steps. I would highly recommend Crown Driveways.”
