Slatyford is a suburban pocket inside Newcastle upon Tyne, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Newcastle upon Tyne job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourNewcastle upon Tyne page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
From the Tyne bridges to the Wear's winding path, this metropolitan county pulses with energy and history. Our team has worked on properties ranging from listed quayside warehouses to sprawling new-build estates, adapting techniques and materials to each unique setting.
As the regional capital, Newcastle has an incredibly diverse housing stock from Grade II listed Georgian townhouses on Grey Street to modern riverside apartments at the Quayside. Jesmond and Gosforth offer leafy Victorian suburbs, while the west end features more affordable terraced housing.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in Slatyford.

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.
We keep stock of popular materials at our yard so projects in major towns can start quickly without long lead times.
We visit your property to discuss your vision, measure the driveway area, and assess ground conditions.
We help you choose colours, patterns, and edging that complement your home and the local streetscape.
The existing surface is removed, sub-base is laid and compacted, and edges and drainage are installed.
