Looking for an expert driveway in Lincoln? Paddway Surfacing Solutions are specialist driveway and surfacing contractors laying block paving, tarmac, resin bound and imprinted concrete drives across the city, and resurfacing commercial car parks and roads. Seventeen years in the trade, every job backed by a 3-year workmanship guarantee.
Lincoln is a city of two halves, and each one calls for a different approach. Uphill, around the Cathedral Quarter, Bailgate and Steep Hill, you have limestone properties, conservation streets and tight cobbled approaches where any work has to sit right with the setting. Downhill, the West End and the streets off the High Street are mostly red-brick Victorian terraces, often wanting a neat tarmac drive or a re-lay of an old, tired surface.
Most of the driveway work, though, is out in the suburbs, and that is ground Jamie knows well: the larger modern estates at North Hykeham, Bracebridge Heath, Waddington and Nettleham, off the A46 and the main roads out of the city, where the generous frontages suit a full block-paved or resin driveway. Whatever part of Lincoln you are in, and whatever the gradient and the ground beneath, Jamie assesses the job for what the property and the access genuinely need, and it is that judgement he has built his career on.
From the conservation streets uphill to the growth estates at North Hykeham, Lincoln's surfacing jobs are as varied as the city itself, and Jamie takes on all of them:
Driveways, paths, courtyards and commercial hardstanding, laid on a properly built base with solid kerbs so it holds its line for years.
Block PavingTarmac driveways, forecourts and surfaces for homes and businesses, machine-laid and rolled for a smooth, hard-wearing finish.
TarmacingSmooth, permeable resin bound surfacing in a range of stone blends, a premium finish that drains freely and stays weed-free.
Resin Bound DrivewaysPattern imprinted concrete, also known as street print, moulded and coloured to resemble block paving or stone in one continuous, weed-free surface.
Imprinted Concrete DrivewaysFull-depth resurfacing and repairs for retail and commercial car parks, laid to true falls and finished with crisp line marking.
Car Park ResurfacingPotholes and worn patches on drives and car parks cut out square and reinstated at full depth, so the repair lasts rather than lifting out next winter.
Pothole RepairLincoln has been part of Jamie's regular patch out east for years, and with Paddway the person who quotes your job is the person who lays it. He gives you an honest, expert assessment of what the property and the access actually need, then carries it out himself. Behind that sit seventeen years in surfacing, a 3-year workmanship guarantee, £1 million public liability insurance, a blue CSCS card and an NRSWA street works ticket, with a clear written quote before any work begins.

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.
