Bring a tired drive back without starting again

Not every drive needs digging out. If the base is sound, a faded tarmac drive can be re-coloured, a mossy block paved drive can be cleaned, repaired and re-sanded, and a dull imprinted drive can be cleaned and resealed.

On block paving we pressure clean, lift and replace cracked blocks, pull out weeds and moss, re-sand every joint with kiln-dried sand and apply a sealer that locks the sand in and holds back weeds. On tarmac and imprinted concrete we clean, treat oil marks and apply a coloured sealer.

If we find the base has failed, with dips, cracks running right through or water pooling, we tell you straight, show you why, and quote for a new drive instead. Resurfacing is only worth doing on a drive that is sound underneath.

Block paving drive reconditioned

We had our block paved driveway cleaned to a very high standard, repairs on cracked bricks, all weeds and moss removed, and re sealed. Very professional work done, friendly team, efficient, good time keeping, cleaned up around area afterwards. Very pleased with the whole thing. Excellent and would definitely recommend.

New patio

We recently had our driveway done by Unique Driveways and Patios and couldn’t be happier. We dealt directly with Paddy, who was very helpful in suggesting ideas and making the planning process straightforward. We were able to get the work started quickly, and the team showed up on time every day, ready to go. They were friendly and worked incredibly hard, managing to complete a fairly large driveway in just three days. The finished job looks fantastic, and it’s reassuring to know it comes with a 10-year warranty. Would definitely recommend.

Tarmac drive

The team have just finished our new driveway. We chose tarmac with a brick edging. From the initial quote to completed job everyone was so helpful and with years of experience, gave advice we both felt we could trust. They were all so approachable, easy to talk to and happy to explain even the smallest details. They managed to keep everything so clean and tidy throughout the job, amazing! The finished job looks brilliant, exactly what we wanted. Thank you

Tarmac driveway

Great team. Nothing was too much trouble and were really professional, friendly and superb to deal with. They took out trees and bushes we wanted to retain, were tidy and we couldn't fault them. The drive looks really impressive and their work is guaranteed for 10 years. Our thanks to Pat, Charles, the two Ricks and Mick. Helen & Paul

Indian sandstone patio

Pat and the team have just finished our driveway and patio - they managed to transform our large front gravel driveway, side passage/walkway and large back patio in Indian sandstone - and turned the whole thing around in just 4 days. Amazed by the speed but also the strong attention to detail. The lads were all lovely too. We're really pleased with the finish and they communicated really well throughout. Thanks to the whole team!

New patio

From first meeting Pat I was confident that he listened to my requirements and that his company could deliver the patio I wanted in what was a difficult location due to sloping ground and limited access. Charlie and the team arrived as promised working extremely hard to complete the job exactly to my specifications I have no hesitation in recommending the company and the workers to anyone. They kept me informed and were a pleasure to deal with

Before you book

Straight answers about resurfacing and sealing

Can you re-colour a red tarmac drive?
Yes. Red and black tarmac can both be re-coloured and sealed if the surface is sound.
How often should block paving be sealed?
Every few years keeps the joints tight and the colour strong. We tell you what your drive needs.
Will resurfacing fix a drive that has sunk?
Small sunken areas of block paving can be lifted and relaid. If the base has failed across the drive, a new drive is the right fix.
Do you clean patios as well?
Yes. Patios, paths and steps can be cleaned, re-pointed and sealed.
Is there a charge for the quote?
No. Quotes are free.
