Owner-led paving, patios & landscaping,built to last a decade, guaranteed in writing.
Direct Paving Group UK is a small, skilled Hampshire team run personally by Charlie Adams, installing resin, block paving, patios and full garden transformations that keep looking as sharp in year ten as they did on handover day.
A small Hampshire team, built around one accountable owner
Direct Paving Group UK was founded by Charlie Adams to fix the two things Hampshire homeowners kept telling us they hated about hiring paving companies: not knowing who would actually turn up on the day, and finding out on completion day that the "£4,000 driveway" was actually £6,500 once the "extras" were added.
We help homeowners across Basingstoke, Hook, Fleet, Farnborough, Camberley, Frimley, Andover, Reading, Winchester and the surrounding Hampshire villages, usually people who have saved for years for a proper driveway or garden transformation and want it done once, done properly, by someone whose name is on the company.
We specialise in resin-bound driveways, block paving using Marshalls, Brett, Bradstone and Tobermore ranges, natural stone and porcelain patios, gravel driveways, ground preparation and drainage, landscaping, turfing, fencing, brickwork and decking. That's it, we don't dabble in trades outside hard landscaping, which is why every job is finished by the same people who quoted it.
Charlie personally surveys every enquiry, writes every quote and leads every job on-site alongside a small skilled team of around 2–5 tradesmen depending on project size, ensuring high-quality workmanship on every project.
The standards we build to, on every single job
Ground prep, done properly
150–250mm dig, MOT Type 1 sub-base compacted in engineered lifts, edge restraints and drainage (ACO channels or soakaways where required), before a single paver goes down. Most callbacks come from what's under the surface, not the surface itself.
Premium trade materials
Marshalls, Brett, Bradstone and Tobermore approved block paving ranges. High-quality trade resin systems chosen per project, never end-of-line stock or cash-and-carry pallets.
Fixed written quotes
Every quote is a written, fixed-price document, with excavation, sub-base, edging, drainage, materials and cleanup itemised. No verbal ballparks. No day-of extras.
Written 10-year workmanship guarantee
Issued on completion, in writing. Covers structural integrity, installation defects and sub-base failure under normal use, backed by £1 million public liability insurance.
Measurable proof, not marketing slogans
Verified reviews from Hampshire homeowners across resin, block paving, patios and landscaping projects.
Written guarantee issued on completion, covering structural integrity and sub-base failure under normal use.
Full £1 million public liability insurance in place for every project we quote and install.
