Driveways in Cheylesmore
Driveway quotes for Cheylesmore, Coventry's popular southern suburb: 1930s semis and detached houses with proper front gardens, where block paving and tarmac with a block edge are the local standards.
Driveways for Cheylesmore's semis
Cheylesmore is classic interwar suburbia: semis and detached houses with front gardens big enough for a proper two-car drive. That makes it block paving country, and the streets show it: brindle herringbone with a charcoal border is the area's signature. Tarmac with a block edge is the value alternative and looks sharp against the red brick.
Practical points for Cheylesmore plots
Most Cheylesmore drives are flat and rectangular, the easiest kind to price. The things that move quotes here are the usual suspects: excavation depth on clay ground, drainage where the drive falls to the house, and whether the old concrete drive comes out or can be overlaid. Dropped kerbs on the busier roads need Coventry City Council's standard checks.
Typical Cheylesmore prices
A two-car drive of 45 to 55m2 typically quotes £2,300 to £5,500: gravel from £30/m2, tarmac from £45/m2, block paving and resin from £70/m2.
