Driveways for Wyken's semis
Wyken's interwar and post-war semis have the generous front gardens that make proper two-car drives, and block paving is the area's signature: brindle herringbone with a charcoal border on street after street. Tarmac with a block edge is the value alternative, resin bound the modern upgrade.
Practical points for Wyken plots
Most Wyken drives are flat and rectangular, the easiest kind to price. What moves quotes is excavation depth on the area's clay, drainage where the drive falls to the house, and whether the old surface comes out or can honestly be overlaid. Dropped kerbs need Coventry City Council approval where a crossing is missing.
Typical Wyken prices
A two-car drive of 45 to 55m2 typically quotes £2,300 to £5,200: tarmac from £45/m2, block paving and resin from £70/m2.
