Re-using an existing dropped kerb but rebuilding the base depth underneath it, relevant driveways detail for RG26 properties near Wolverton

The local brief behind the build

Baughurst is inside our 30-mile core area, so site visits are arranged within a week and project supervision is daily, not weekly.
We've spent enough time on RG26 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a tarmac driveway - the clay-heavy gardens that need deeper sub-base than the standard 150mm that gets missed when a national firm quotes from a desk.
Quotes are written, fixed and broken down by stage, with the same crew on site from day one through to clean-down.

Local reassurance without vague claims

Last year alone we worked across Baughurst and the neighbouring Tadley / Wolverton side most weeks, with the same two-crew rotation supervising every job.

“I chose this company for a small block paved driveway job because of the positive reviews. The job was done efficiently in October 2020 but 6 months later it started to sink and now there is a puddle after rain in the middle of my driveway. I contacted Steve and sent photos with the warranty document. Steve came over once and left his business card. Steve promised to fix it by the end of October 2021 but this didn't happen.”

FAQs - Driveways in Baughurst

How is the quote made specific to this property?: It records excavation or foundation assumptions, materials, disposal, access, programme and exclusions. The allowance is based on the measured site rather than copied from another town.
What changes the specification around Baughurst?: The first local issue we check is older properties where the existing apron sits below pavement level. We also look at access, levels and whether Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.
Can you cover Wolverton as part of the same local run?: Yes. Wolverton sits within our normal Baughurst working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.
What should I send before a RG26 site visit?: A wide photo, approximate dimensions, access width and a note about the intended use are enough to make the first conversation useful.

Turn the idea into a measured scope

A durable tarmac driveway in this area begins with the unglamorous details: access, ground, drainage and permissions. We record those first, then price the visible finish around them. This recommendation is scoped to Baughurst driveways enquiries.
