Tarmac
Report
Our expertise installing tarmac driveways has been developed over many years and we have extensive experience and highly skilled staff that allows us to undertake tarmac works of any size.
The installation of tarmac especially in a residential setting where most work involves hand laying requires specialist skills and equipment and you can be confident that Colordrives has both.
When laying tarmac driveways we adhere to EN regulations for the installation and preparation of a new driveway ensuring that it will be durable and stand the test of time.

Block Paving
Report
We were in fact one of the first companies to start laying residential block paving in Solihull when it first became available many years ago.
All our block paved driveways are installed to the highest standards adhering to the relevant BS specifications using specialist equipment such as clay block splitters giving a premium quality finish.
Once we have agreed the shape of your new driveway, the first job is to excavate down to formation level the existing driveway and any areas that the proposed driveway is to be extended into.

Patios
Report
At Colordrives we take pride in designing and building bespoke patios, when we visit we will go through the entire process and work with you to design the patio you have always wanted.
Colordrives offers a range of patio and landscaping services so we can be a one stop shop for everything you need.
We lay slabs to the highest standards, we only lay on a solid concrete bed not dabs and with jointed slabs we only use mortar jointing not off the shelf rubbish such as geo-fix which falls out within a year.
