Coniston

Driveways in Coniston, done properly

Coniston is steep and narrow, and both of those set the job. Steep means the water arrives at the property with momentum rather than soaking in where it lands, so on a sloped driveway here the drainage is the design and the surface is what goes on top of it — channels, falls set across rather than straight down, and something permeable so the whole lot isn’t arriving at the front door in one go. Narrow means access: the lanes off the village and up towards the Old Man will not take a big lorry, so materials come in on small loads or get shuttled, and we work that out at quoting stage. The village is slate to its bones, from the fell down, and paving that carries that grey-green tone belongs here in a way that imported buff sandstone never quite does.

  • Steep means water arrives with momentum, so falls go across the slope and channels go where it collects
  • Lanes towards the Old Man won't take a big lorry; material gets shuttled and that's on the quote
  • Slate and green stone belong here in a way imported buff sandstone never quite does

FAQs

Questions from Coniston

No. It is one of our longer runs, but there is no call-out charge in LA21 and the written price is free either way.

It is a design question rather than a problem. Falls get set across the slope rather than straight down it, drainage channels go in where the water actually collects, and on the steepest we'll usually recommend block over resin for grip and for the ability to lift and re-lay a section. We'll walk it with you and explain what we're doing and why.

Often not, and we check before we quote rather than after. Material comes in on smaller loads or gets tipped at an accessible point and shuttled up. It costs a bit more in labour and we'd rather it was on the quote than a surprise.
