Driveways in Bransholme
Driveway quotes for Bransholme, Hull's big northern estate: post-war houses where tarmac and keenly priced block paving are the sensible choices for family drives.
Driveways for Bransholme's estates
Bransholme's post-war houses were built for practical family life, and most drives here are workmanlike rectangles for one or two cars. Tarmac is the value standard and looks smart with a block paving edge; brindle block paving is the step up that most of the estate takes when budget allows.
Practical points for Bransholme plots
Many Bransholme drives replace an original concrete strip or a patch of lawn. The estate's ground is low-lying and slow to drain, so the sub-base depth and where the water goes are the lines to check in any quote. If the drive fronts a footpath or verge, the dropped kerb needs Hull City Council approval before work starts.
Typical Bransholme prices
A two-car drive of 45 to 55m2 typically quotes £2,000 to £4,500: tarmac from £45/m2, block paving from £70/m2.
