Driveways and private roads in Storrington

Storrington sits at the foot of the South Downs, about eleven miles south of Horsham. We cover the village and the area around it, including Pulborough, West Chiltington, Thakeham, Washington, Ashington and Amberley.

Sandy ground

Unlike the clay around Horsham, much of the ground here is sandy. It drains freely, which helps, but it can be loose, so the question is whether the base will stay compacted under the weight of cars and deliveries. We check it at the site visit and build the sub-base to suit.

Private roads around West Chiltington

West Chiltington and the roads around Storrington have a lot of unadopted private roads, often shared by several houses and maintained by the residents. When a road like that is sound but worn, tar-and-chip surface dressing seals it and gives a fresh finish for far less than resurfacing. When it is breaking up, we repair the base first. We can set the price out by section, which helps when the cost is being shared.

Driveways and gateways

For individual homes we lay tarmac, resin and block paved driveways, often with a bellmouth at the gate so cars can turn in cleanly from a narrow lane.
