When someone first gets in touch about a new driveway or patio, what are the top one or two things they usually ask you about?

When you choose Virtue Driveway and Patio Solutions, you'll be pleased to know that we are committed to sustainable practices. A common question we receive is, "What do you do with the materials removed from my old driveway or patio?" The answer is simple: we meticulously recycle all suitable materials. This commitment reduces waste and minimises our environmental impact, making your new installation an eco-friendlier choice.

What types of driveways and patios do you install?

We specialise in a wide range of materials, including block paving, resin bound, natural stone, concrete, and tarmac, offering bespoke solutions to match your home's aesthetic and your budget across Surrey.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway or patio?

In most cases, permeable driveways and patios that allow water to drain naturally do not require planning permission. However, larger projects or those affecting drainage might. We can advise you on local regulations in Surrey during our consultation.

What are the biggest worries or uncertainties people have when thinking about getting a new driveway or patio, and how do you usually put their minds at ease?

One of the biggest worries people have when considering a new driveway or patio is "How can I trust my tradesman?" At virtuedrivewayandpatiosolutions.co.uk, we understand this concern deeply. We put your mind at ease by providing transparent communication from the outset, detailed project breakdowns, and showcasing our extensive portfolio of completed projects in Surrey. Our fully insured and experienced team prides itself on professionalism and attention to detail, ensuring your peace of mind throughout the entire process. We encourage you to read our testimonials and speak with previous clients.

After you've finished the work, what common questions do customers ask about looking after their new driveway or patio, or what advice do you often share?

After your beautiful new driveway or patio is installed, a frequent question we hear is, "How often does it need cleaning and sealant application?" While the exact frequency depends on the material type and local conditions, generally we recommend a thorough clean once or twice a year to maintain its pristine look. For sealants, depending on the product, reapplication is typically advised every 2 years to protect against weathering, weeds, and staining. We provide detailed care instructions upon completion of your project and are always here to offer advice.

How long does a typical installation take?

The duration varies depending on the size and complexity of the project, as well as the materials chosen. After our initial site visit and consultation, we will provide a clear timeline for your specific project.

Do you offer guarantees on your work?

Absolutely. We stand by the quality of our craftsmanship and materials. All our installations come with a comprehensive guarantee, giving you long-term peace of mind. Details will be provided with your quote.
