A driveway that sinks, holds water or wears badly usually starts with weak groundwork. Cooksey plans the sub-base, drainage, edging and surface together so the driveway is built for daily use.

Excavation depth, sub-base build-up and existing ground condition all affect how the driveway needs to be prepared.
Driveway drainage is planned around water flow, surface falls and whether a permeable option may be needed.
Resin, block paving and tarmac each affect the look, cost, maintenance and installation method.

Posted on Google Kelly NewtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cooksey Landscape Gardening did a fantastic job on my garden. It was an absolute jungle before, and they have completely transformed it. They removed all the trees, bushes, and the pond, levelled the entire area, and then laid new grass along with building a back wall. The difference is amazing. The team were lovely to work with, very professional, and completed everything in such a short time. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to transform their garden.Posted on Google The AbbottsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
