Expert Driveways Patios Landscaping in Market Bosworth, Leicestershire

The price for a new block paving driveway in Leicester can vary quite a bit. It depends on factors like the size of your driveway, the type of blocks you choose, any ground preparation needed, and whether you need new drainage or a dropped kerb. We always provide a free, no-obligation quote after a site visit, so you get a clear, upfront price tailored to your specific project. We aim to be really transparent about costs, ensuring you understand exactly what you're paying for.

For driveways over five square metres in your front garden, you usually need to ensure the surface is permeable (allows water to drain through) or that drainage is managed on-site, like directing water to a lawn or soakaway. Using permeable block paving often helps you meet these Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) regulations and avoids the need for planning permission. Patios generally don't require planning permission unless they significantly alter the ground level or cover a large percentage of your garden. If your project involves a new or widened dropped kerb, that always needs a permit from Leicester City Council, and we can guide you through that process. We’re experts in Leicester and Leicestershire regulations and can advise you properly.

Absolutely, we can help with that common problem! Sunken driveway blocks don't necessarily mean you need a full replacement. We specialise in driveway repairs, often able to lift, re-level the sub-base, and relay the existing blocks. This not only makes your driveway safe and look smart again but can save you a lot of money compared to a brand new installation. We’ll assess the damage and give you an honest opinion on the best solution for your Leicester home.

Both Indian Sandstone and Porcelain are fantastic choices for patios, but they offer different benefits. Indian Sandstone provides a beautiful, natural, and unique look with lovely colour variations – it's perfect if you're after that rustic, charming feel. Porcelain, on the other hand, gives a very sleek, modern finish. It's incredibly hard-wearing, non-porous (so it resists stains and algae really well), and super low-maintenance. Your choice often comes down to the aesthetic you prefer and how much time you want to spend on cleaning. We can show you samples of both and discuss what would best suit your garden design here in Leicestershire.

Keeping your patio spick and span is pretty straightforward, especially with our quality installation. Regular sweeping to remove leaves and debris helps a lot. For a deeper clean, a pressure wash a couple of times a year can work wonders, especially for removing any built-up dirt or algae. For Indian Sandstone, a gentle cleaner designed for natural stone can be good. Porcelain is very low-maintenance and usually just needs a good wash down. We also offer professional exterior pressure washing services in Leicester to rejuvenate your patio if it needs a serious clean.

Artificial grass is an increasingly popular choice for many Leicester homeowners, and for good reason! It’s perfect if you want a beautiful, green lawn all year round with virtually no maintenance – no mowing, no weeding, no muddy patches. It's ideal for busy families, pet owners, and even those tricky shaded areas where real turf struggles to grow. We provide professional artificial grass installation, making sure it looks seamless and natural, giving you a hassle-free, perfect-looking lawn.

We offer a full range of fencing services across Leicestershire. If your fence has seen better days due to storms or just age, we can assess whether a repair, like replacing a broken post or panel, is enough. If you need a completely new fence, we have loads of options, from robust closeboard or featheredge panels for maximum privacy and security, to more decorative styles. We use durable materials, including concrete posts and gravel boards, to ensure your new boundary lasts for years. We'll chat through what suits your property and budget best.
