Driveways, Patios & Fencing in Huntington

Paving and fencing for Huntington homes

York Paving and Fencing designs and installs driveways, patios and boundaries for homeowners in Huntington and nearby Haxby and Strensall and Osbaldwick. Here’s what’s worth thinking about locally:

• Estate homes in Huntington often have open-plan front gardens, so we take care to keep a new driveway in keeping with the street while giving you the parking you need.
• Parts of Huntington are close to the Foss. Wherever ground drains slowly, we recommend permeable paving or resin bound surfacing so rainwater soaks away rather than pooling.
• Timber fencing on exposed, open-aspect gardens takes a battering in winter winds — concrete posts and gravel boards are worth considering for longevity.

Typical projects in Huntington

Huntington mixes the old village near the Foss with large estates built from the 1970s onwards, plus newer homes towards Monks Cross. On the estates, open-plan front gardens are common, so a new drive needs to sit well alongside the neighbours while giving you room for two cars. Block paving in a colour that matches the brickwork, with a contrasting border, is the usual choice.

Back gardens on the newer streets often came with thin patio slabs laid on sand and builders’ panel fencing. Relaying the patio on a proper base, and upgrading to closeboard fencing with gravel boards, makes a real difference to how long they last. Where ground near the Foss drains slowly, we look at permeable paving or a soakaway rather than sending more water towards the road.
