Driveways in Gosport
Gosport is flat, low-lying and close to the water, which makes drainage the deciding factor on almost every driveway here. Helyers of Hampshire design and install driveways across the peninsula built to deal with their own water rather than push it onto the road.
Drainage-Led Driveways on Flat Ground
With very little natural fall to work with, you cannot simply slope water away – it has to soak through or be collected. That is why we lean towards permeable block paving and resin-bound systems here, with channel drainage where a level threshold or a garage entrance needs protecting.
Driveway Surfaces We Install
- Block paving – strong, repairable, and available in permeable formats
- Resin-bound – smooth seamless finish, naturally permeable
- Gravel – on a stabilising grid so it stays put and stays level
- Tarmac – cost-effective for larger drives
- Drainage & SuDS compliance – permeable build-ups or channel drainage
- Kerbs, edgings and drop kerbs – arranged and installed
For driveway-only projects, our specialist sister site Hampshire Driveways covers surfacing in more depth. This page is for driveways designed and built alongside the rest of your garden and frontage.

Common Questions
My drive floods. Can you fix it?
Usually yes – it normally means a permeable build-up, added channel drainage, or both. We will diagnose it on the site visit.
What is permeable block paving?
Blocks with wider joints filled with grit, over a free-draining sub-base, so rainwater soaks through rather than running off.
Do I need planning permission?
Over 5 square metres of impermeable front surfacing generally does. Permeable construction normally avoids it.
Are you local to Gosport?
