Gravel driveway installation across Poole and Dorset

If you are based in Poole knows the area: Poole is a port town on one of the world's largest natural harbours, ranging from exclusive waterfront areas like Sandbanks to large post-war estates. Our gravel driveway installation service covers the whole town, from Canford Heath to Penn Hill.

We offer gravel driveway installation all over Poole and the surrounding Dorset area. Big job or small, you get one clear price before any work is booked.

Our Poole jobs cover Detached waterfront homes, inter-war semis and post-war estate housing. Each one is a little different, so we price from the details you send.

With stone-built period properties, coastal homes, holiday lets and Georgian city housing, Dorset has properties of every age and plot size, so each drive is planned around levels, drainage and access.

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

How long does a gravel driveway last?

A well-built gravel driveway can last for many years. The gravel will need topping up every few years as it spreads and settles, and occasional raking keeps it level. The sub-base underneath should last much longer if it is laid and compacted properly.
