Driveways
Block paving, resin-bound, tarmac and gravel driveways — dug out to depth, laid on a compacted MOT sub-base with proper edge restraints and permeable drainage.

Driveways · Paving · Groundworks
MG Contractors build driveways, patios, steps and groundworks across Coventry and the West Midlands — with correct sub-bases, clean lines and a site left tidy every evening.
Who we are
Most driveways and patios fail from the bottom up — poor excavation, a thin sub-base, no thought given to where the water goes. We work the other way round. Every job starts with proper dig-out, compacted stone, considered falls and drainage, so the surface you see still looks right in ten years.
From a full driveway replacement to a set of front steps or a morning of handyman jobs, the same standard applies: clear pricing, agreed dates, and a clean site when we leave.
What we do
Block paving, resin-bound, tarmac and gravel driveways — dug out to depth, laid on a compacted MOT sub-base with proper edge restraints and permeable drainage.
Porcelain, Indian sandstone, concrete and natural stone patios. Full-bed laying, tight consistent joints, correct falls away from the property.
Front and garden steps, thresholds, retaining walls and pillars. Even risers, bullnose treads and slip-resistant finishes that lift the front of the house.
Excavation, muck-away, hardcore and sub-bases, concrete bases and slabs, drainage runs, soakaways, channel drains and inspection chambers.
The list that never gets done — fencing, decking repairs, gates, small brickwork, pointing, fixings, jet-washing and general property maintenance.
Sunken paving relaid, cracked slabs replaced, re-pointing, re-levelling and cleaning and sealing to bring tired surfaces back to life.

How we work
You'll know the price, the programme and who's turning up before anyone lifts a spade.
We come out, measure up, check levels and drainage, and talk through materials and options.
A clear itemised price — labour, materials, muck-away and disposal. No hidden extras.
Agreed start date, protected access, daily clean-down and regular updates as work progresses.
We walk the finished job with you, jet-wash down, clear the site and settle up.
“Anyone can lay a slab. The difference is what's underneath it and where the water goes.”
