Expert advice

How to Hire a Paving Contractor in Ipswich

1

Check drainage compliance — solid impermeable driveways over 5m² require planning permission unless they drain to a soakaway

2

Ask what sub-base depth is being used — a deep sub-base prevents sinking and cracking over time

3

Confirm kerb edging and pointing are included in the quote

4

For block paving, ask about the brand and thickness — premium blocks last far longer than budget alternatives

5

Compare at least 3 quotes on Quote2 — driveway pricing varies enormously between contractors
