Dropped Kerbs in Faversham

Council Certified Vehicle Crossover Contractors

A&A Construction & Surfacing is council certified to carry out dropped kerb works. This provides customers with an experienced contractor for the construction of the crossover once the requirements for the individual property have been established.

A proposed dropped kerb may still require local authority permission. Contractor certification and approval for a particular vehicle crossover are separate matters, and any necessary permission should be obtained before construction proceeds.

Creating a New Entrance to Your Property

If the front of your Faversham property provides suitable space for parking, a dropped kerb can create the vehicle access needed to make practical use of that area. This provides a defined route from the highway across the pavement and into the private driveway.

The layout of every property is different. Existing ground levels, the position of the proposed entrance and surrounding surfaces all need to be considered when determining the physical work required.

New Driveway & Dropped Kerb Packages

Where a property requires both a new driveway and a vehicle crossover, A&A Construction & Surfacing can undertake the different construction stages as one coordinated project. This includes excavation, ground preparation, drainage where required, driveway installation and the dropped kerb itself.

Handling the work together allows the levels and transition between the crossover and driveway to be considered from the beginning rather than trying to connect two independently constructed areas later.

Tarmac, Resin Bound & Block Paved Driveways

A&A Construction & Surfacing installs a choice of driveway surfaces throughout Faversham. Our options include practical tarmac driveways, decorative resin bound surfaces and traditional block paving.

We can discuss the appearance and requirements of your property before determining the most appropriate approach. Whichever finish is chosen, we place strong emphasis on the preparation beneath the visible driveway surface.

Adding a Dropped Kerb to an Existing Driveway

If you already have suitable off-street parking, there may be no need to replace the complete driveway. We can also undertake standalone vehicle crossover projects where the primary requirement is to create appropriate access from the highway.

We can inspect the existing frontage and discuss the construction involved once the relevant requirements and permission for the proposed crossover have been confirmed.

Ground Preparation & Excavation

A properly constructed crossover needs to accommodate the additional demands created by vehicles entering and leaving the property. This makes the groundwork beneath the finished surface an important part of the project.

Our wider construction services include excavation, site preparation and groundworks, enabling us to undertake these stages ourselves rather than being limited to the kerbing and visible surface.

Levels Between the Road & Driveway

Differences in level between a property and the highway can affect how a new vehicle entrance needs to be constructed. The road, crossover and driveway should provide a practical transition for vehicles while working with the existing layout of the site.

Where we are installing a completely new driveway, the levels within the property can be planned alongside the crossover as part of the overall preparation.

Drainage & Frontage Improvements

A new driveway can significantly alter the surface at the front of a property, making drainage another consideration during the planning and preparation of the work.

We provide drainage alongside our groundworks and driveway services, allowing associated improvements to be incorporated where required. Paving and landscaping can also form part of a wider transformation of the external area.
