Working in Armitage

Armitage and neighbouring Handsacre sit along the A513 and the Trent & Mersey Canal, a few minutes from our yard, with older village cottages, post-war housing and newer cul-de-sacs side by side.

In villages around Armitage, longer rural drives often suit tarmac, with block borders or setts near the house.

For Armitage (WS15), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is barely three miles from Kimberley Business Park.

How we work

We agree levels against the house damp-proof course, existing paths and the pavement before any work starts, and we leave the site swept and clean with the old surface removed.

We dig out to the right depth for vehicle loads, lay and compact a Type 1 sub-base in layers, then fix kerbs or edging before laying the surface. Cutting corners at this stage is why so many drives sink and rut.

Driveways in Armitage: common questions

Are there local ground or drainage considerations in Armitage?

Properties near the Trent & Mersey Canal and the River Trent need drainage designed with ground levels and watercourses in mind. We check the site and any available records before we price the work.

Do you lay commercial car parks?

Yes. We lay tarmac and block-paved car parks and hardstandings for commercial sites as well as homes.

Why do some drives sink?

Usually because the sub-base was too thin or not compacted. We dig to the right depth and compact Type 1 in layers.

How much does a new driveway cost in Armitage?

It depends on the area, the finish (tarmac, block paving or another surface), how much excavation and sub-base is needed and the drainage. We measure up and give an itemised quote.

Which areas near Armitage do you cover?

We cover Armitage and nearby areas including Handsacre, Mavesyn Ridware, Kings Bromley and Hill Ridware.
