Templetown is a suburban pocket inside Consett, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Consett job. We plan around longer single-vehicle drives that often need widening or re-shaping. That's why this page exists separately to ourConsett page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
Recently built properties where homeowners want to replace standard builder finishes with premium driveways and patios.
These characterful properties combine ground-floor living with loft rooms, often needing specialist dormer roofing work.
Split-level properties with interesting rooflines and gardens that benefit from thoughtful design and quality materials.
Homes on quiet cul-de-sacs often have generous driveways and front gardens ideal for a complete transformation.

County Durham combines a rich mining heritage with a historic cathedral city and growing new-build communities. The county's housing stock includes traditional pit villages, Georgian and Victorian properties in Durham city, and modern estates in towns like Newton Aycliffe and Peterlee.
Consett sits high on the Durham hills at over 250 metres above sea level, making it one of the coldest and most exposed towns in the region. Properties need to withstand harsh weather, and materials must be chosen for wind and frost resistance.
Our familiarity with local property styles and conditions means we can advise confidently on the best approach for your project.
We measure your driveway area, check for utility locations, and discuss your design preferences.
You receive a fixed-price quote with a clear timeline. No hidden costs, no surprises.

The chosen surface — resin-bound, block paving, or tarmac — is installed with precision.
We inspect the finish, ensure drainage is working correctly, and remove all waste from your property.
