For driveways in Tranent, E. Young Surfacing is a true surfacing specialist, not a landscaping or decorative-paving sideline, and we have laid tarmac and surfaces since 1952. Tranent mixes older stone-built homes and former mining cottages with large newer estates on the edge of town, and we lay tarmac, monoblock and resin driveways to suit them all.

Recent driveway and surfacing work
View all work
Tranent sits right in the middle of our patch, a few miles along the road from our base in Haddington. The town has a real mix of homes, from older stone-built houses and former mining cottages around the centre to the large newer estates that have grown up on its edges. Whatever the property, the same rule applies: a driveway only lasts if the ground beneath it is right. We are surfacing specialists, so where a full replacement is needed we dig out and lay a properly compacted sub-base, rather than skim a new surface over a failing one.
For Tranent homes we lay three main driveway surfaces. A tarmac driveway is hard wearing, quick to lay and good value, with a clean, even finish. A monoblock driveway gives a smart block-paved look with plenty of colour and pattern choices. A resin driveway is smooth, low maintenance and modern. We will give you an honest recommendation for your property rather than push one option.
Around Tranent’s farms and villages we also lay tarmac and asphalt surfacing for private roads, tracks and larger areas, and surface dressing and tar & chip to seal and refresh long rural roads cost effectively. Where a surface is tired rather than finished, repairs and resurfacing are often the better value, and for businesses we handle car parks, yards and access roads. We also cover nearby Musselburgh and the rest of East Lothian. If you are looking for driveway installers in Tranent with a long local track record, we have laid surfaces here since 1952 and are happy to come and quote.

Do you lay monoblock and resin driveways in Tranent as well as tarmac?
Yes. As well as tarmac we lay monoblock and resin-bound driveways across Tranent. Tarmac is hard wearing and cost effective, monoblock gives a clean block-paved finish, and resin is smooth and low maintenance. We will talk you through which suits your home before you commit.
How much does a driveway in Tranent cost?
It depends on the size, the surface you choose, the preparation needed, edgings and access. Rather than guess, we give you a free quote after a quick site visit, with a clear breakdown so you know exactly what is included before any work starts.
Can you replace a driveway on one of the newer Tranent estates?
Yes. A lot of Tranent's newer housing came with a basic driveway that has since sunk, cracked or worn. We dig out what is needed, lay a properly compacted base, then finish in tarmac, monoblock or resin to suit the home.

We are based in Haddington, a few miles east of Tranent, and have laid driveways and surfaces across East Lothian since 1952. Tranent is one of the towns we work in most, so you get a genuinely local, established firm.
