Concrete Driveways Nottingham — Delivered Fresh, Mixed to Last
From standard grey concrete to coloured and decorative finishes, we supply the right mix for a driveway built to handle daily use.
Why the Right Mix Matters for a Driveway
A driveway takes more punishment than most concrete surfaces — daily vehicle weight, weather exposure, and years of use. Getting the mix grade, thickness, and pour right the first time isn’t just about appearance; it’s what determines whether a driveway lasts 20+ years or starts cracking within a few winters.
Because we mix volumetrically on-site, we calculate your driveway’s exact volume as we pour, adjusting for site-specific factors like ground condition, drainage, and expected vehicle load — rather than delivering a fixed, pre-batched mix designed for average conditions.
What Concrete Grade Is Best for a Driveway?
- C25 — suitable for most standard domestic driveways with typical car use
- C30 — recommended for driveways with heavier vehicle use, larger areas, or less stable ground
- Fibre-reinforced concrete — added crack resistance, often recommended for larger driveway slabs or areas prone to ground movement
We’ll confirm the right grade for your specific project after understanding your driveway’s size, ground conditions, and expected use — local ground conditions across Nottingham (from clay-heavy soils near Wollaton to made-ground sites in the city centre) can influence this recommendation.
Driveway Concrete Finishes We Supply
Standard Grey Concrete Durable, cost-effective, and the most common choice for domestic driveways. A reliable option when appearance is secondary to function and budget. Coloured / Decorative Concrete Pigmented mixes for a more finished look, available in a range of tones to complement a property’s exterior.
Exposed Aggregate Finish A textured, decorative finish achieved by exposing the aggregate within the mix — popular for a more premium driveway appearance.
Fibre-Reinforced Concrete Added synthetic or steel fibres improve crack resistance, particularly useful for larger driveway areas or sites with variable ground conditions.
Small Driveways, Extensions & Repairs
Not every driveway job needs a full truckload. For smaller driveways, extensions to an existing driveway, or patch repairs, our volumetric trucks can supply barrow mix quantities without the inflated minimum order charges some suppliers apply to small jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What concrete grade is best for a driveway? C25 or C30 is typical for domestic driveways, depending on vehicle weight, driveway size, and ground conditions. We’ll confirm the right grade for your specific project.
How much concrete do I need for my driveway? Send us your driveway’s rough dimensions and intended depth (typically 100–150mm for domestic driveways) and we’ll calculate the volume required — no obligation.
Can you supply coloured or decorative concrete for a driveway? Yes, pigmented, exposed aggregate, and standard finishes are all available — see our Decorative Concrete page for more detail.
Do I need fibre-reinforced concrete for my driveway? It’s not required for every driveway, but it’s often recommended for larger areas or sites with less stable ground, as it improves crack resistance.
How long does a concrete driveway take to cure before use? Concrete typically reaches enough strength for light foot traffic within a few days, but full curing for vehicle use generally takes around 28 days — we can advise on timing specific to your mix.
Can you deliver a small quantity for a driveway extension or repair? Yes, our barrow mix option covers smaller driveway jobs and repairs without inflated minimum order charges.
