About our Eastbourne service

Eastbourne is a traditional seaside resort on the East Sussex coast beside the South Downs, with a long Victorian seafront, a large retired population and tourism and care as major employers. We know the area well: we carry out gravel driveway installation on behalf of homeowners, landlords and small developers throughout Eastbourne, from Polegate, Meads and Old Town.

Start to finish, we make gravel driveway installation in Eastbourne simple: one point of contact, one fixed price and people who arrive when they say they will.

We regularly deal with Victorian villas, terraces, seafront flats and bungalows. Each one is a little different, so every quote is based on your details.

Across East Sussex, gravel is often chosen for rural and semi-rural driveways where long runs make other surfaces expensive.

Plenty of Eastbourne driveways sit on ground that ranges from free-draining to heavy clay, so the sub-base depth is set after the ground is dug rather than guessed.

Do I need planning permission for a gravel driveway?

In England, a new or replacement front driveway of any size does not normally need planning permission if it uses a permeable surface such as gravel. Planning permission is needed for an impermeable surface over 5 square metres that drains onto the road. Flats, maisonettes, listed buildings and properties covered by an Article 4 Direction or other restriction may need permission, and the rules differ in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, so check with your local council if unsure.

  • Get a written fixed quote and agree payment terms before work starts
  • Measure the drive roughly and note what is there now, such as lawn, concrete, tarmac or old gravel
  • Check whether your property is a flat, listed, or in an area with an Article 4 Direction, which can affect planning
  • Find out if you need a dropped kerb and contact your highway authority early if so
