FAQs Answered by Your Trusted Worthing Driveway Company

Do I legally require a drop kerb installation?
If you intend to create a vehicular access point from the road onto your property, it is generally necessary to obtain permission from Worthing Borough Council and comply with their requirements for drop kerb installation. Failure to do so may result in legal consequences, as may forgoing a drop kerb and simply mounting the pavement – which is restricted under the letter of the law. It is advisable to consult with a driveway company – like Ayres Driveways, a drop kerb installation specialist – if you are unsure about the necessity of one.

Why choose block paving for patio laying?
Block paving is a popular choice for patio laying due to its durability, versatility and aesthetic appeal. It’s the ideal choice for Worthing residents wanting to experiment with colours, shapes and patterns, allowing for customisable designs that can complement any outdoor space. The interlocking blocks provide stability and strength, with the ability to withstand heavy foot traffic and weather conditions. Add to this that block paving is relatively low maintenance, as individual blocks can be easily replaced if damaged, and you’ll see block paving as a practical and long-lasting option for patio laying.

What kinds of options do I have when it comes to garden paving?
There are all sorts of ways that Worthing residents can approach garden paving, from the use of concrete slabs or natural stone (such as limestone or sandstone), to block paving (for the reasons mentioned above), porcelain tiles or even gravel; who doesn’t love a gravel path? Each option offers different aesthetics, durability and maintenance requirements, and our driveway company is here to help you select one that suits your style, budget and the practical needs of your garden.

Why do so many Worthing residents opt for a tarmac driveway?
A tarmac driveway is one that’s affordable, quick to install and tough enough to stand up to heavy, daily use. As approaches to a new driveway go, it is also modern and minimalist, making it a great match for newer builds around Worthing. Other reasons why it’s in the arsenal of every driveway company, not just our own, is that it provides a smooth and even surface that’s resistant to cracking and sinking, and requires very little maintenance. And one thing many people think about a tarmac new driveway, is that it’s versatile and can be customised with different colours and finishes to suit your preferences.
