Complete Driveway Design & Installation Across Trafford and South Manchester
A new driveway should do more than improve the appearance of your home. It needs a properly constructed base, effective drainage and a finish that will continue to perform under daily vehicle use.
The Trafford Landscape Company provides complete driveway design and installation, managing everything from excavation and ground preparation to drainage, edging, steps and the finished surface. Established in 2004, our family-run team combines more than 20 years of landscaping experience with careful workmanship and clear, detailed quotations.
We install driveways throughout Urmston, Trafford, Sale, Altrincham, Chorlton, Didsbury, Wilmslow and surrounding areas of South Manchester and Cheshire.
Gravel-Grid Driveways
A gravel-grid driveway provides the attractive, natural appearance of loose gravel without the same movement, rutting or migration. The load-bearing grids stabilise the gravel while retaining excellent permeability, making them well suited to larger driveways and properties where a softer finish is preferred.
We can help you select an aggregate that complements your property and construct the edging and base so the grid system remains secure under regular vehicle use.
Resin-Bound Driveways
Resin-bound surfacing creates a smooth, contemporary finish using natural aggregate mixed thoroughly with a UV-stable resin. When installed as part of a suitable permeable system, it allows water to drain through the surface and can provide a practical, low-maintenance alternative to conventional paving.
We offer a wide choice of aggregate blends, complementary block borders and carefully formed details around steps, drainage and entrances. Eligible VubaMac installations can be supplied with a manufacturer-backed guarantee of up to 25 years, subject to the chosen system and guarantee conditions.
Driveways Built Properly From The Ground Up
The finished surface is only as reliable as the construction beneath it. Before installation begins, we assess the existing ground, access, levels, drainage and intended vehicle use.
Our preparation can include removing the existing surface, excavating to the required depth, installing a geotextile membrane and compacted sub-base, and constructing the necessary drainage, edging and steps. This ensures every part of the driveway is designed as one complete, long-lasting installation.
Block-Paving Driveways
Block paving is a durable and versatile choice for both traditional and modern homes. Different colours, block sizes, borders and laying patterns can be combined to complement the brickwork and character of your property.
Correct excavation, sub-base preparation, edge restraint and compaction are essential. We construct each driveway as a complete system so the finished paving remains stable and serviceable, with individual blocks that can be lifted for local repairs if ever required.
