Driveways

Long, lifestyle and rural - formed to last

A long winding lifestyle driveway is a different animal to a townhouse entrance. It carries heavier vehicles, sees more weather, and there's more of it to get wrong. We build rural and lifestyle driveways that are correctly formed, properly drained and built to handle the distance.

Built for the length and the load

Rural driveways take a beating - stock trucks, trailers, the school run twice a day, and a lot of rain running off a lot of ground. That means getting the base and the crossfall right so water sheds off instead of sitting in ruts, and choosing the right metal that holds up under weight.

Surface water is the whole game

On a long rural drive, managing surface water is what separates a driveway that lasts from one that washes out. We form the driveway so water runs where it should and build in drainage where the ground needs it - the reason metal driveways survive a Waikato or Bay of Plenty winter.

New, or rebuilt

We build from scratch, and we rebuild, reshape and resurface tired, damaged driveways. If your existing drive has good bones we'll say so and save you a full rebuild; if it's beyond it, we'll form it properly the first time.
