Dropped Kerbs in Maidstone

Council Certified for Dropped Kerb Works

A&A Construction & Surfacing is council certified to undertake dropped kerb work, giving Maidstone customers an experienced contractor for the physical construction of their vehicle crossover.

The proposed location may still require approval from the relevant local authority. Contractor certification and permission for an individual crossover are separate considerations, so any necessary approval and site-specific requirements need to be satisfied before the work proceeds.

New Vehicle Access in Maidstone

Creating a driveway can provide valuable off-street parking, but the new parking area also needs appropriate access from the highway. If there is no existing crossover, a dropped kerb may therefore form an important part of the overall project.

We can consider how the road, pavement, crossover and private driveway connect, undertaking the physical construction necessary to create a practical entrance once the required permissions are in place.

New Tarmac Driveways & Vehicle Crossovers

Tarmac is a popular option for creating a practical, hard-wearing driveway. A&A Construction & Surfacing can undertake the excavation and preparation required for a completely new tarmac driveway as well as installing the finished surface.

If the project also requires a dropped kerb, the levels and construction of the driveway can be coordinated with the crossover rather than arranging each element separately.

Resin Bound & Block Paved Driveways

We also install resin bound and block paved driveways for Maidstone homeowners looking for a more decorative finish. Resin bound surfacing provides an attractive aggregate appearance, while block paving offers considerable visual flexibility through the paved finish.

Both can be incorporated into a complete driveway and vehicle access project, with the necessary ground preparation undertaken before the finished surface is installed.

Dropped Kerbs for Existing Driveways

If you already have a driveway or suitable off-street parking, we can undertake the dropped kerb separately. This may be appropriate where the parking area itself does not require replacement but suitable vehicle access from the road still needs to be created.

We can assess the physical layout and discuss the work required for the crossover once the relevant permission and requirements have been established.

Ground Preparation for a Vehicle Crossover

The area between the road and driveway needs to withstand vehicles travelling across it regularly. Proper preparation is therefore an important part of constructing a new crossover.

Our groundwork capabilities allow us to undertake excavation and preparation as part of the project. Where the driveway is also being constructed, we can continue this coordinated approach throughout the private parking area.

Driveway Levels & Property Access

Not every property sits at the same level as the road. Differences between the highway, pavement and frontage can influence the preparation required to create practical vehicle access.

By undertaking both groundworks and surfacing, we can consider these levels throughout the wider project. This is particularly useful when a completely new driveway is being constructed behind the crossover.

Drainage as Part of Your New Driveway

Changing an existing garden or frontage into a hard-surfaced parking area can also make drainage an important consideration. Existing levels and the layout of the new surface need to be taken into account during the preparation of the site.

A&A Construction & Surfacing provides drainage alongside our driveway and groundwork services, enabling associated drainage work to be incorporated where required.

Complete Frontage Improvements

A new driveway and dropped kerb can also provide an opportunity to improve the wider appearance and practicality of the front of a property. Depending on the project, associated paving, paths, brickwork or landscaping may form part of the work.

Our broad range of construction services means these different elements can be discussed together, providing a coordinated approach rather than requiring several separate contractors.
