Surfacing You Can Trust, Guaranteed for Three Years

A new driveway or car park is a serious investment, and not something you buy often, so the hard part is knowing who will get the groundwork right and leave you with a surface that still looks the part in ten years. It is a fair worry: cut corners on the sub-base or the falls and you get ponding, cracking and weeds within a couple of winters, whatever the finish looked like on day one.

This is where Paddway earns its name. Across 17 years laying tarmac, block paving, resin and concrete for homeowners, developers, farms and businesses, Jamie has learned to get the ground beneath the surface right first: excavated to the correct depth, a properly built sub-base, and the surface laid to true falls. You get a free site survey and a clear written quote with nothing hidden, all backed by a 3-year workmanship guarantee.

I can't recommend Paddway Surfacing Solutions enough. Jamie was so easy to deal with, from the first consultation and listened to what we wanted. We had a tarmac driveway laid with a grey block paving border. The price was so reasonable and the job was well executed. Really pleased with the work.

Built for East Midlands ground

Surfacing Built for East Midlands Ground, by a Local Contractor

The ground across the East Midlands is not one thing: heavy clay that heaves and holds water, old made-up ground, lighter sandy soils out towards the Trent. Each one calls for a different depth of dig and a different sub-base, and a surface that sits fine on one can fail on another within a couple of winters. Reading the ground correctly before a spade goes in is exactly what long experience buys you.

Based in Retford, Jamie has spent 17 years on driveways, car parks and roads across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire, from tarmac drives on country houses to block-paved cul-de-sacs and commercial resurfacing. He knows the towns, the routes and the ground because they are the same ones he works across every week, and he quotes every job, works it, and puts his name to the finish.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Which areas do you cover?+
We cover Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire from our Retford base, including Worksop, Newark, Doncaster, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Grantham, Sleaford and Stamford, along with the towns and villages around them. If you are near the edge of that patch, call and Jamie will tell you straight whether he covers you.
How long has Paddway been surfacing?+
Jamie has 17 years in the trade, having started in surfacing at 20. You are dealing with an experienced contractor who has laid every kind of driveway, car park and road across the region, not someone learning on your job.
What surfacing work do you take on?+
Nine core services: car park resurfacing, road surfacing, imprinted concrete driveways, block paving, tarmacing, resin bound driveways, ironwork raising and ground excavation, pothole repair and slurry sealing. Where a job spans more than one, Jamie handles the lot in a single visit wherever he can, so you are not coordinating separate trades.
Do you do both residential and commercial work?+
Yes, and both carry equal weight. Jamie lays driveways for homeowners and surfaces car parks, private roads and hardstanding for businesses, developers, farms and landlords. The same groundwork and the same 3-year workmanship guarantee apply whichever it is.
How do I get a free quote?+
Call Jamie on 07367 072300 or send an enquiry through the site, and every message gets an instant text acknowledgment so you know it has landed. He then arranges a free site survey, reads the ground and drainage, and gives you a clear written quote with no obligation to go ahead.
