At Interlink Paving, we’ve been transforming driveways for homeowners across Runcorn and the surrounding areas for over 25 years. Whether you’re in Halton, Weston Village, Murdishaw, Castlefields, Brookvale or anywhere across the WA7 postcode, we bring the same level of craftsmanship and care to every job — no matter the size.
Runcorn has seen significant residential development over recent decades, with a wide mix of property types — from older terraced homes in the town centre to newer builds out towards Weston and Murdishaw. Whatever the age or style of your property, a well-installed driveway makes a real difference to the look, feel and value of your home.
We don’t subcontract. Every driveway we install is completed by our own experienced team, and we back our work with full public liability insurance and a guarantee you can rely on. From your first free site survey through to the final tidy-up, we handle everything. We also install block paving driveways, patios and a range of other hard landscaping services across the region — so if you’re looking to transform more than just your driveway, we can help with that too.
If you’re based just outside Runcorn, we cover the full surrounding area. Take a look at our driveways in Widnes, driveways in Prescot and driveways in Warrington pages to see examples of our work nearby.
We offer a full range of driveway surfaces to suit every property style and budget. Our team will help you choose the right material during your free survey, taking into account your home’s existing aesthetic, your usage requirements and the ground conditions on your plot.
Block paving is one of the most popular choices for Runcorn homeowners, and it’s easy to see why. Available in a wide range of colours, patterns and laying styles — from traditional herringbone to contemporary linear designs — block paving offers genuine flexibility to complement any property. It’s also fully repairable: individual blocks can be lifted and replaced if needed, meaning you’re not faced with a complete resurface further down the line. Our block paving installations are built on a properly prepared sub-base to ensure long-term stability and excellent drainage. See our block paving Haydock page for an example of a recent local installation.
Tarmac is a durable, cost-effective solution that works well across a range of property types in Runcorn. It handles the North West’s wet weather exceptionally well, drains efficiently, and provides a clean, consistent finish that’s easy to maintain. We use high-quality tarmac throughout and take care with edging and kerbing to ensure the finished surface looks as sharp as it performs. For homeowners looking for a practical, long-lasting driveway at a competitive price, tarmac is an excellent choice.
Resin bound surfacing has grown significantly in popularity across Runcorn in recent years, and for good reason. The smooth, attractive finish is available in a wide variety of aggregate colours, allowing you to create something genuinely distinctive. Crucially, resin bound surfaces are SUDS-compliant — meaning they allow rainwater to drain through naturally, satisfying planning requirements for front driveways without needing a separate drainage system. The result is a premium-looking surface that requires minimal maintenance and is resistant to weeds and cracking.
Concrete driveways offer outstanding durability and are particularly well suited to larger plots or properties with heavy vehicle use. When properly installed on a solid sub-base, a concrete driveway will withstand decades of use with minimal maintenance. We can install plain concrete or add decorative finishes such as brushed, exposed aggregate or pattern-imprinted styles. For Runcorn homeowners who want a surface that simply lasts, concrete is a solid investment.
We’re a local company based in St Helens — Runcorn is well within the area we work in every day. That means we understand the local housing stock, the ground conditions in the area, and the results homeowners across WA7 are looking for.
We visit your property in Runcorn at a time that suits you. We assess your existing surface, ground conditions, drainage requirements and talk through your options. There's no charge and no obligation.
Following your survey, we provide a clear, itemised written quote. No vague estimates — just a transparent breakdown of exactly what's included and what the work will cost.
Once you're happy to proceed, we finalise your chosen material, colour, pattern and any additional features such as edging, dropped kerbs or drainage channels.
We excavate the existing surface and prepare a solid, well-compacted sub-base. This is the most important stage of any driveway installation — getting the foundations right is what ensures the surface stays stable and level for years to come.
Our team installs your chosen surface to a high standard, including all edging, kerbing, drainage and finishing details. We work efficiently and keep disruption to a minimum throughout.
Once complete, we carry out a full inspection with you to make sure you're completely happy. We leave your property clean and tidy — ready to use straight away.
In most cases, no. Permitted development rules allow homeowners to install a new driveway without planning permission, provided the surface uses a permeable material or drainage is directed to a lawn or border. If you’re planning an impermeable surface on a front garden, you may need permission from Halton Borough Council. We’ll advise you on this during your free site survey.
Most standard residential driveways in Runcorn take between one and three days to complete, depending on the size of the area, the material chosen, and the extent of any preparatory groundworks required. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe as part of your written quote.
Costs vary depending on size, material, ground conditions and any additional work required such as dropped kerbs or drainage. Tarmac is typically the most cost-effective option; resin bound and block paving carry a higher price due to materials and labour. We provide free, no-obligation quotes with a full transparent breakdown. Contact us to arrange your survey.
The right material depends on your property type, usage requirements, budget and personal preference. Block paving is popular for its flexibility and repairability. Tarmac offers excellent durability at a lower price point. Resin bound gives a premium, low-maintenance finish. Concrete is ideal for high-use or larger plots. We’ll discuss all options during your free survey.
Yes. If your new driveway requires a dropped kerb, we can manage the full process including liaising with Halton Borough Council highways department on your behalf. Please mention this when you contact us and we’ll factor it into your survey.
A properly installed driveway on a solid sub-base should last many years. Tarmac typically lasts 15–25 years, block paving 20–30 years with occasional re-sanding, resin bound 15–25 years, and concrete 25–40 years. The quality of the groundworks is the key factor — something we take seriously on every job.

Yes. We stand behind every installation and offer a guarantee on our workmanship. We also carry full public liability insurance. Our reputation across Runcorn and the wider region is built on doing the job properly first time — and backing it up if anything isn’t right.
