What makes a Stimpsons driveway or patio last for decades, not years.

At Stimpsons, we’ve refined our process over 25 years to ensure every project is built properly from the ground up – not just made to look good on the surface.

Each of these five stages is critical to long-term strength, drainage, and finish.

5 Critical Stages of Build

Dig Off — deeper than British Standard for a lasting foundation.
Edging — solid, reinforced restraints for stability and definition.
Sub-base — strong, porous base for drainage and durability.
Laying — granite chippings or mortar bedding for a weed-free, rock-solid surface.
Finishing — precision cutting and sealing for a flawless, professional finish.
