Whyteleafe Paving Company was established in 1986 as a company specialising in brick paved driveways. Since that time we have evolved to include all aspects of landscaping as this web portfolio demonstrates. Our small company is used by building companies, architects and garden designers, although most of our work contracts still come from people who simply recommend us to their friends.
Because of the small size of the company we are naturally interested in smaller projects that require good attention to detail and would possibly be passed up by the larger landscape contractors. We run our company on a different basis to many landscapers - instead of running several contracts at once we prefer to concentrate on only one project at a time.
This allows us to focus all our attention on the contract in hand and permits me to be available and on the site 90% of the time. That way a continuous monitoring of the quality of the work can be carried out as the job progresses.

Services
The following show a few examples of our work over the years.
We originally specialised in block paving and have installed hundreds of drives across Surrey and West Sussex.
Other contracts have involved using natural flagstones, ie Indian Sandstone and Yorkstone, and granite sett drives, but rigid surfaced driveways such as these need a different approach to block paving and will require a reinforced concrete base to eliminate any movement.
At the opposing end to this method is loose gravel which still needs to be installed over a well consolidated base layer of roadstone and retained with a solid edging.

The look and feel of a garden should be as personal to you as the style of your house.
These projects often encompass drive construction, walls, paved areas, water features, wooden or iron pergolas, turf laying and planting.
We work very closely with clients to ensure your views are expressed in our work.

The success of any landscaping project can be distilled to just two areas: the quality of workmanship and the quality of the products used.
We do our utmost to keep the quality of work high on every contract.
But we are also concerned with the longevity and performance of the materials we use.
It is for this reason that we are very selective when it comes to recommending products for a landscaping application.
Due to a nationwide surge of interest in garden development, fuelled in no small way by television make-over programs, general building and landscape merchants have risen to the public demand for more and more diverse products.

On occasion we work in tandem with garden designers who will bring their own expertise to a project.
For complex designs, the benefit of having an accredited designer on board is without question; they make available to prospective contractors the same plans for quotation purposes - a very useful tool that means all those quoting are on a level playing field.
They will have an eye on the future development of the garden over time whilst keeping a reign on the actual day by day construction.
They act as a point of reference between us, the contractor, and you the client, especially when alterations to a plan are deemed necessary, or details need to be agreed upon.
