Wonersh Driveways: a local specification for GU5 properties

Wonersh is a small conservation village with timber-frame cottages, a brick-and-tile high street and the Wonersh Park estate on the southern edge. Weald clay subsoil shrinks badly in dry summers, so we treat shrink-swell as the controlling risk on every foundation and patio scope. That is why our driveways quotes here start with the plot, access and levels, not a standard square metre allowance. The technical detail we test first is clay-heavy gardens that need deeper sub-base than the standard 150mm.

Widening a single-car drive to a comfortable two-car layout with a clean edge detail, relevant driveways detail for GU5 properties near Shamley Green

What changes the specification here

Wonersh 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 GU5 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a tarmac driveway - the sloped plots that need ACO drainage at the threshold to keep water away from the house 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.

“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 Wonersh

What changes the specification around Wonersh?: The first local issue we check is clay-heavy gardens that need deeper sub-base than the standard 150mm. We also look at access, levels and whether Waverley Borough Council needs to be involved before fixing the construction detail.
Can you cover Shamley Green as part of the same local run?: Yes. Shamley Green sits within our normal Wonersh working cluster, so it can be grouped with nearby surveys rather than treated as a distant call-out.
What should I send before a GU5 site visit?: A wide photo, approximate dimensions, access width and a note about the intended use are enough to make the first conversation useful.
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.

Is this the right route for your property?

For a Wonersh project, the sensible next step is a measured visit: we can confirm access, levels and the right response to clay-heavy gardens that need deeper sub-base than the standard 150mm before pricing the work. This recommendation is scoped to Wonersh driveways enquiries.
