A car park in poor condition doesn’t just look bad, it creates real problems: trip hazards, drainage issues, and confused traffic flow that can affect customers, staff, and site safety. We resurface and install car park surfacing for businesses, schools, hotels, offices, churches, and other organisations across Greater London, using tarmac, resin bound, or block paving depending on your budget and how the space is used. Where possible, we plan work in phases so your car park can stay partially operational rather than closing completely, and every job includes clear line marking and layouts, not just a new surface.









Car parks take a different kind of punishment to a home driveway: more vehicles, more frequent use, and often heavier loads. That means the sub base and drainage need to be specified properly from the start, not just adequate for light domestic traffic. Get this part wrong and you’re looking at potholes, standing water, and surface failure well before the surfacing itself should have worn out.
A sub base built for the actual traffic and vehicle weight the car park will see, not a generic residential specification
Falls and drainage designed to move water away from entrances, walkways, and parking bays
Clear line marking and layout planning, so bays, routes, and accessible parking are properly defined from day one
Car park sub bases and surfacing are specified for the actual vehicle weight and frequency of use, not a one size fits all residential approach.
Where possible, we phase the work so your car park can stay partly open, rather than shutting the whole site down.
Clear line marking and layout planning are part of the job, not an optional extra, so the finished car park is safe and easy to use from day one.
Tarmac, resin bound, and block paving are all available, so you can balance upfront cost against long term durability.
Quotes that set out scope, materials, and timelines clearly, so there's nothing to argue about once work starts.
We're fully insured for the commercial surfacing work we carry out, giving you the paperwork you'd expect for a business project.
We bring the same standard of work to commercial car park projects as we do to every driveway and patio we install.

I cannot recommend Paul and his team enough! Paul was very helpful at organizing and laying a new patio for me. Throughout the whole process he and his team were reliable, honest, easy to communicate with, very tidy and clean, as well as being extremely efficient. I am thrilled with the work they carried out.

We are very pleased with the construction of our new driveway. The work was completed efficiently and to a very high standard, with excellent attention to detail throughout the project. The team was hardworking, reliable, and clearly took pride in the quality of their workmanship. Communication was very good from start to finish. The crew was polite, professional, and happy to answer any questions, keeping us informed of the process and consulting us as necessary as the work progressed. They were respectful of our property, kept the work area tidy, and completed the job within the agreed timeframe. The finished driveway looks excellent and has meets our expectations. We would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for quality workmanship and excellent customer service. Stewart and Joy Harris, Dulwich, LondonPosted on Google![]()

We can’t recommend London Driveways & Patios enough. They were prompt to reply to all enquiries, Paul was thorough going through the details of what we were looking for and the work was done earlier than expected (which suited us!) and to an excellent standard. We felt the cost was very reasonable and were delighted with the results. Thanks again!Posted on Google![]()

I recently had my driveway and patio repaved and couldn’t be happier with the results. Paul, Ardin and the team did an excellent job from start to finish. They were professional, polite, and incredibly hardworking throughout the entire process. What really stood out was how respectful and non-demanding they were while working on the property. They kept everything tidy, communicated clearly, and made sure the job was completed to a high standard. The finished driveway looks fantastic, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled driveway workPosted on Google![]()

We would highly recommend London Driveways and Patios. They are a professional, helpful and friendly team with a ‘can do’ attitude when any complications arise. We had a new porcelain patio installed, new path along the side of the house and a second fairly large patio area with steps replaced at the back of the garden. They started on time, the work was completed on schedule, and we are very happy with the results. We could not complete the whole job due to some complications replacing a shed, they’ve been flexible in accommodating that, agreeing to return to complete the job later in the year.Posted on Google![]()

My driveway has just been completed and looks terrific. The work is neat and precise and they solved an awkward level issue with the public footpath. The guys were efficient and courteous and even finished a little ahead of schedule. I would heartily recommend.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

A car park is often the first thing customers, staff, or visitors experience at your site. Here’s what a properly surfaced one genuinely delivers.
An even surface with clear routes reduces the everyday safety issues that come with a worn or cracked car park.
A properly surfaced, clearly marked car park reflects well on your business before anyone's even walked through the door.
Correct preparation and material choice extend the surface's working life, reducing how often you need repairs.
Well planned layouts and clear marking help vehicles and pedestrians move through the site safely and efficiently.
The right material for a car park depends on traffic levels, budget, and how the site is used. Tarmac is generally the most cost effective option for larger areas. Resin bound gives a smoother, permeable finish where drainage is a priority. Block paving offers a more premium look and is easier to repair section by section. We'll talk through what's right for your site, traffic, and budget, rather than defaulting to a single option.
We carry out car park surfacing for businesses, schools, hotels, offices, churches, and other organisations across Greater London, including Winchmore Hill, Southgate, Ealing, and surrounding areas. Get in touch for a free site assessment wherever you're based.
Car park projects tend to raise the same handful of practical questions, here's what we're most often asked by businesses before work begins.
It depends on your traffic levels, budget, and site conditions. Tarmac tends to be the most cost effective for larger areas, resin bound suits sites where drainage is a priority, and block paving offers a more premium finish. We’ll advise based on your specific site.
Cost depends on the size of the area, ground conditions, material, and access to the site. We provide fixed, written commercial quotes, so get in touch for an accurate price.
With correct preparation and the right material for your traffic levels, car park surfacing can perform well for many years. Get in touch, and we can advise based on your specific site and usage.
In many cases, yes, particularly if the sub base is still sound. We’ll assess the existing surface and let you know honestly whether resurfacing or a full rebuild makes more sense.
Timescales depend on the size of the site, the material used, and whether work needs to be phased to keep the car park partly operational. We’ll give you a realistic schedule once we’ve assessed the site.
Yes, clear line marking and layout planning are included as standard, covering bays, routes, and accessible parking, not offered as a separate add on.
Where possible, yes. We can often phase the work so part of the car park stays usable, rather than closing the whole site, though this depends on the size and layout of your specific car park.
Yes, correct falls and drainage are essential for a commercial car park, both for the longevity of the surface and to avoid standing water causing safety issues.
Yes, we specify the sub base and surfacing to suit the actual vehicle types and frequency of use on your site, whether that’s staff cars, delivery vehicles, or other heavier traffic.
Yes, we’re fully insured for the commercial surfacing work we carry out.
