Years of Experience
FPL Contractors Ltd is renowned for expertly executing drop kerb installations, which are a vital component of urban infrastructure, facilitating vehicle access while ensuring pedestrian safety. We meticulously blend functionality with aesthetic considerations, ensuring that the new kerb aligns perfectly with your property’s design.. Our team engages with sophisticated tools and methods to deliver an installation that not only meets but exceeds local council requirements. We prioritise communication with our clients throughout the project to ensure their vision and needs are fully realised.
The procedure of dropping kerbs is multi-faceted, involving thorough preparation, skilled execution, and post-installation inspections. The team at FPL Contractors Ltd takes a comprehensive approach, starting with an in-depth evaluation of the site to ensure that the planned modifications will not conflict with existing infrastructure. Following the assessment, we develop a detailed plan that covers all aspects of the construction phase, including precise excavation, sub-base preparation, kerb lowering, and the reinstatement of the pavement surface. We manage all elements with meticulous attention to detail to ensure a flawless finish.
Our initial step involves a rigorous site assessment conducted by our team of experts. This process is essential for establishing the scope of work and identifying any unique challenges that may arise during the drop kerb installation. During the planning phase, FPL Contractors Ltd takes into consideration the landscape, existing roadwork, and local environment to design a dropped kerb that integrates seamlessly. The planning also includes contingency strategies to mitigate any unforeseen issues, ensuring a smooth installation process.
Navigating the complexities of local regulations is a critical aspect of dropping kerbs. FPL Contractors Ltd excels in this arena, taking the lead in securing necessary permits and ensuring that all aspects of the installation are in strict compliance with local bylaws. Our team maintains open channels of communication with the relevant authorities, facilitating a collaborative approach to meet all legal requirements and community standards. This proactive liaison minimises disruptions and ensures that the project progresses without unnecessary delays.
Selecting premium materials and employing advanced installation techniques are hallmarks of our commitment to excellence at FPL Contractors Ltd. We source sustainable, high-quality materials that not only provide structural integrity but also contribute to the environmental sustainability of the community. Our methods are continually refined to incorporate the latest advancements in construction technology, ensuring that each dropped kerb installation is performed with utmost efficiency and to the highest professional standard.
Designing for safety and accessibility is at the forefront of every project at FPL Contractors Ltd. We meticulously plan each dropped kerb to accommodate the diverse needs of the community, ensuring easy access for all, including individuals with disabilities. Our installations are scrutinised for safety compliance, from the slope and width of the kerb to the surface texture and colour contrast. We aim to create a harmonious balance between aesthetic appeal and functional design to serve the needs of the community effectively.
At FPL Contractors Ltd, our engagement with the client extends beyond the installation. We offer detailed aftercare services that include regular maintenance checks and prompt repairs if necessary. Our aftercare program is designed to ensure that the integrity of the dropped kerb is maintained, guaranteeing that it continues to provide safe and convenient access while retaining its visual appeal. Clients can have peace of mind knowing that their investment is protected and will continue to serve its purpose for years to come.
At FPL Contractors Ltd, we understand that every property is unique. That’s why we offer customised design solutions for dropped kerb installations, ensuring that each project is tailored to the specific needs and preferences of our clients. Whether it’s matching the kerb to unique pavement patterns or accommodating specific landscaping designs, our team is skilled in creating bespoke solutions that blend functionality with personalised aesthetics.
We are deeply committed to the environment and its preservation. Our environmental consideration extends to every stage of the dropped kerb installation process. From selecting materials that are sustainably sourced to employing construction techniques that minimise our carbon footprint, we ensure that our projects are environmentally responsible. Furthermore, we take measures to ensure that the installation process has minimal impact on the surrounding natural habitat and complies with all environmental regulations.

Lee Griffiths2025-05-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a chance meeting with Felix and his team as they were doing a drive across the road from me I showed them my unsightly garden of loose paving weeds everywhere and untidy they cleaned all the drive garden front and back sorted loose paving out re-grouted and sealed replaced my awful artificial grass with turf Exellent work one of my neighbours asked me who did so recommend then so maybe more work coming their way thanks again ejulienka2025-04-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the incredible luck of meeting Felix when he was fixing the driveway for our neighbor. Out of curiosity I consulted him for updating our back garden and just few weeks later they were in the job! Did exceptional work for us in just a few days. Always timely and worked really fast. Completely stripped off and cleaned our back garden, removed small brick wall, installed new raised flower beds/planters, laid grass enforcing mesh and seeded the lawn. We had many contractors over he years doing bits and bobs but I never met anyone as reliable, straight to the point and efficient as Felix and his son. Couldn’t recommend more! Suzanne Godfrey2025-01-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a block paved patio and landscaping done. The team showed up on time for the quote and the work itself, with great communication throughout the process. Changes were adapted to with no problem. Honest, professional and reliable. Ian Johnstone2025-01-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Felix has made an excellent job of paving my small driveway. The team arrived on time to start the work and finished on schedule, despite working in snow and freezing conditions. The driveway looks excellent, and it is tidy, they have left zero waste behind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company. sara davies2024-11-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After having a lot of building work done at the start of the year, our driveway had become very uneven. FPL levelled our driveway, added more drainage, block paved along the side of the house and jet washed everything. Everything is now level and as good as new. I would definitely recommend FPL to anyone wanting work done on their driveways or patios. Thanks for a great job. Pete Fryer2024-11-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Felix and crew cleaned and resealed our imprinted concrete drive. Turned up on time, did the job, went away. Can't ask for anything more. Lottie Gaming2024-10-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Felix and his team carried out extensive work on the front, back and sides of our house. We originally wanted the front drive paved and saw a myriad of faceless driveway companies that would no doubt do a really decent job but as soon as we met the wonderful Jack and discussed our plans it soon became obvious that FPL would be the best company for both our driveway plans and also to sort our "bog" of a back garden that had virtually become unusable whenever it rained due to the clay soil. We are so glad that we chose Felix and the boys and they were always on time, extremely polite and the final job is way beyond anything we could have hoped for. The back and front now look immaculate and the newly laid lawn drains beautifully. Its fair to say that it has been well tested in the weeks since the work was done. I would highly recommend FPL for any future work and its very clear that Felix and the team take great pride in their work, treating the work as though it was being done on their own house. martyn hussey2024-09-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good job done, helpful and polite Recommended
