Before work starts in Northampton, levels are checked so the finished gravel stays well below the damp-proof course and water falls away from the house.

Northampton gravel driveway installation: common questions

How much does gravel driveway installation cost in Northampton?

How soon can you book a job in Northampton?

What do you need from me to quote in Northampton?

Simply fill in the form on this page with your Northampton postcode, a few details of what you need and when you need it. Photos help but are optional.

How do you stop weeds coming through gravel?

A proper base and a good-quality geotextile membrane under the gravel stop most weeds growing up from the soil. Over time a few seeds blow in and germinate in the gravel itself, but they are shallow-rooted and easy to pull out or treat. Keeping leaves and debris raked off helps.
