About our Salford service

Salford is city bordering central Manchester across the Irwell, with former docks redeveloped as Salford Quays and MediaCityUK, plus a university and older terraced districts. We offer gravel driveway installation all over Salford, including Salford Quays and Ordsall through to Pendleton.

We carry out gravel driveway installation across Salford and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, you get one clear price before anything is booked in.

Local buildings are largely Waterside apartments, Victorian terraces and post-war council housing, so each quote takes into account the property, parking and access and when you need it done.

Many Salford homeowners choose gravel grids on sloping or busy drives, so the stones stay put and do not end up on the pavement.

With older terraced streets, converted mills and busy city-centre commercial buildings, Greater Manchester has properties of every age and plot size, so each drive is planned around levels, drainage and access.

Do I need a dropped kerb?

If you will drive across a pavement or verge to reach the driveway, you need a dropped kerb, also called a vehicle crossover, and you must apply to your local highway authority for it. It is a separate application from any planning permission and the council usually sets the price or approves the contractor.
