Global Outdoor Design provides expert driveway installation throughout Glebe and the wider Tyne and Wear area. Whether your property is on a quiet cul-de-sac or a busy street in this family-friendly location, our team creates driveways that combine durability with kerb appeal.
Glebe sits in the NE37 postcode area under Sunderland City Council, with easy access from the A1(M) / A19 corridor — so we can be on site quickly from our base in Tyne and Wear, often combining visits with nearby work in Sulgrave, Albany.

Glebe is a suburban pocket inside Washington, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Washington job. We plan around longer single-vehicle drives that often need widening or re-shaping. That's why this page exists separately to ourWashington page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
Solid-built semi-detached homes with good-sized plots, perfect for adding a new driveway or patio.
Newer builds with open-plan gardens that suit contemporary patio designs and low-maintenance landscaping.
Houses that have been extended often need the driveway or roof adjusted to match the new footprint.
Properties on corner plots have more frontage and garden space, offering greater scope for creative exterior design.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in Glebe.

Washington is a planned new town built in the 1960s and 1970s, with distinct numbered villages each containing their own housing estates, shops, and green spaces. Properties are predominantly modern semi-detached and detached houses with good-sized gardens.
