Domestic Groundwork & Driveway Surfacing in Leeds

Carthy Groundwork has been helping homeowners across Leeds and the North of England create safe, long-lasting, and great-looking driveways for over 30 years. We specialise in the full construction of domestic tarmac driveways, including larger driveways that benefit from machine-laid surfacing for a smoother, more durable finish.


Whether you need a full driveway replacement, a new entrance from the public highway, or groundwork preparation for landscaping projects, our experienced team delivers with precision and professionalism.

Leeds Driveways Built to Last

We install driveways that look good and stand up to the test of time. Using high-quality materials and machine-laid tarmac, we ensure even coverage, proper drainage, and a clean finish every time. Our driveways are:

  • Resistant to cracks and weather damage
  • Smooth and safe for both foot and vehicle traffic
  • Designed for low maintenance and long-term use

 

We’re also NRASW (New Roads and Street Works) certified, which means we can legally and safely construct new entrances from the public highway to your private property.

Access Ramps, Paths & Slabs

It’s not just driveways. We also install:

  • Access ramps compliant with UK disability access regulations
  • Garden and side paths that match or complement your driveway
  • Concrete slabs and footings for garages, outbuildings, and extensions

Our groundwork ensures a level, stable base to prevent issues like sinking, shifting, or water pooling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most domestic driveways are completed in 2–4 days, depending on size and site access. Machine-laid surfaces often reduce installation time and improve the finish.

Usually, no. However, if your driveway will drain onto the public road or if you’re altering access from the highway, certain permissions may be required. We can advise and assist if needed. More guidance can be found on GOV.UK’s planning portal.

Minimal. We recommend occasional cleaning, and you can seal the surface every few years to extend its life. Avoid turning car wheels sharply while stationary to prevent scuffing.
