Driveway Installation in Wembley — Block Paving, Resin, Tarmac and Concrete
Your driveway is the first thing visitors see when they arrive at your property, and it takes daily punishment from vehicles, foot traffic and the British weather. A cracked, sinking or weed-ridden driveway does not just look tired — it can cause drainage problems, trip hazards and, if it is bad enough, difficulties with property sales and insurance. At HighPoint Roofing and Building, we install driveways across Wembley, Harrow, Ealing and within our 15-mile coverage area.

Comprehensive Driveway Installation Services in Wembley
With over 50 years of combined trade experience, we work with block paving, resin bound, tarmac, concrete and gravel. Every installation includes full excavation, proper drainage and a compacted sub-base designed to carry domestic vehicle loads without settling or shifting.
Resin Bound Driveways Wembley
Resin bound surfacing mixes natural aggregate with a clear UV-stable resin to create a smooth, porous surface that allows rainwater to drain through naturally. This makes resin bound driveways compliant with SuDS (sustainable drainage systems) regulations without the need for additional drainage solutions.
- Low-maintenance and weed-resistant
- Compliant with SuDS regulations
- Broad range of colour blends available
- Smooth, porous finish
Block Paving Driveways
Block paving remains the most popular driveway surface in Wembley. Individual blocks are laid on a compacted sand bed over a prepared sub-base, creating a surface that is strong, durable and easy to repair — individual blocks can be lifted and replaced without disturbing the surrounding area.
- Wide selection of block types and colours
- Herringbone, stretcher bond and basketweave patterns
- Easy to repair individual sections
- Strong and durable finish
Tarmac Driveways Wembley
Tarmac is a practical, hard-wearing option that suits larger driveways and areas where cost-effectiveness is a priority. Modern tarmac driveways are machine-laid over a properly prepared sub-base and rolled to a smooth, even finish. They are quick to install and ready for use within 24 to 48 hours.
- Cost-effective for larger areas
- Machine-laid for a smooth finish
- Quick installation
- Ready for use within 24–48 hours
Gravel Driveways
Gravel is the most affordable driveway surface and works well for rural or informal settings. We install gravel driveways with proper edging, weed membrane and compacted sub-base to prevent spreading, sinking and weed growth.
- Most affordable driveway surface
- Proper edging and weed membrane included
- Compacted sub-base to prevent sinking
- Quick installation process
Concrete Driveways
Poured concrete provides a solid, continuous surface that handles heavy loads well. Pattern-imprinted concrete (also known as stamped concrete) can replicate the appearance of block paving, natural stone or brick at a lower cost. We install both plain and patterned concrete driveways with sealed finishes for long-term protection.
- Solid, continuous surface for heavy loads
- Pattern-imprinted options available
- Sealed finishes for long-term protection
- Excellent value for money
Planning and Drainage
Under current planning regulations, installing or replacing a driveway with an impermeable surface on a front garden that drains towards the public highway requires a planning application — unless the water is directed to a lawn, border, soakaway or permeable surface. Resin bound and certain types of block paving are inherently permeable and generally do not trigger this requirement. We advise on the regulations as part of every driveway quotation.
- Compliant with drainage regulations
- Planning advice included with every quote
- Permeable options available
- SuDS-compliant installations

Our Process
Driveway Installation Wembley
Has Never Been Easier
Driveway Installation Wembley Has Never Been Easier
Step 1
Free, No-Obligation Survey
Every project begins with careful planning. We assess your property, discuss your preferred style and materials, and create a design that balances aesthetics, durability, and drainage. Our team also helps secure any required local permissions.
Step 2
Site Preparation and Setup
We clearly mark out your driveway area with precision. All vegetation, debris, and obstructions are cleared, and we check for any underground utilities. This ensures a safe and accurate foundation for your new driveway.
Step 3
Excavation
The area is excavated to the correct depth, ensuring there is enough room for the sub-base, base, and final surface. We shape the ground to encourage proper water runoff, preventing puddles and long-term damage.
Step 4
Sub-base Installation
A strong sub-base is essential for driveway longevity. We lay and compact layers of high-quality crushed stone or aggregate, providing the foundation needed to support heavy vehicles without shifting or sinking over time.
Step 5
Edge Restraints and Drainage
Durable edge restraints are installed to keep the driveway surface firmly in place. We also fit any required drainage channels or soakaways to manage surface water and comply with local regulations.
Step 6
Base Compacted and Levelled
Our team carefully compacts the base material using professional machinery, creating a perfectly level surface. This process ensures stability and prepares the groundwork for a smooth, durable driveway finish.
Step 7
Bedding Layer Prep
Depending on the chosen material, we prepare a sand bedding layer for block paving, or binder for tarmac and resin. This creates a uniform surface to support the final driveway finish.
Step 8
Laying Driveway Surface
We lay your chosen surface — whether block pavers, asphalt, resin-bound aggregate, or concrete — with expert precision. Every section is carefully aligned, levelled, and compacted to achieve a flawless finish.
Step 9
Project Completion
To finish, we seal the surface where needed, fill joints in block paving, and ensure edges are neatly finished. After a full inspection, we provide maintenance guidance and hand over your beautifully installed driveway.

Driveway Repairs and Maintenance in Wembley
If your existing driveway has localised damage — sunken areas, cracked blocks, loose edges or weed growth through joints — a repair may be more practical than a full replacement. We lift and relay sunken sections, replace damaged blocks, re-sand joints and repair edging. For tarmac driveways, we carry out patching and resurfacing where the underlying base remains sound.

Dropped Kerb Applications Wembley

- Brent Council application handled for you
- Coordinated with driveway installation
- Legal vehicle crossing provided
- Full compliance with council requirements

Driveway Installation FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Driveways in Wembley
Get answers to common questions about our driveway installation services in Wembley. If you have additional questions, please don’t hesitate to contact our team.
How much does a new driveway cost?
Driveway costs depend on the size of the area, the chosen material, ground conditions and whether additional work like drainage or dropped kerbs is needed. Because every driveway is different, we survey each project individually and provide a detailed, itemised quotation. All surveys are free. If you are also considering patio installation or garden landscaping alongside the driveway, we can quote for the full scope of work together.
How long does installation take?
A standard domestic driveway in Wembley typically takes several working days from excavation to completion, depending on the size and surface type. Tarmac driveways can often be completed more quickly. We provide specific timescales with every quotation.
Can you driveway over an existing surface?
In some cases — resin bound and tarmac can sometimes be laid over an existing sound surface. However, for the best results and longest lifespan, we generally recommend full excavation and a new sub-base. We will assess your existing driveway and advise on the most practical approach.
How do I maintain my driveway?
Regular sweeping and occasional weed treatment will keep most driveways in good condition. Block paving benefits from periodic re-sanding of the joints. For a more thorough clean, our driveway jet washing service restores surfaces to their original condition. We recommend cleaning at least once a year.
