Dropped Kerb Installers in St Ives
Professional Dropped Kerb Installation Made Simple
Looking for easier access to your property? A professionally installed dropped kerb is not only a practical upgrade but a legal requirement if you need to drive across a public pavement onto your driveway.
At LM Groundworks, we provide compliant, council-approved drop kerb installations that are carried out efficiently, safely, and with no hidden costs.
What’s Involved in Installing a Dropped Kerb?
Installing a vehicle crossover doesn’t just mean lowering the kerb, it involves permissions, utility checks, and groundwork that must follow strict local regulations. Our experienced team makes the process hassle-free by handling it all for you.
Many property owners aren’t aware that without a dropped kerb, driving over the pavement is not only unsafe but illegal. We help you get things right from the start. Whether you’re tired of people blocking your driveway or simply want legal access, we can assess your site and get the process moving quickly.

Great service from a reliable team. LM Groundworks took care of every step – application, survey, and installation.
The finished kerb is solid and well laid. We’ve had no more problems accessing the driveway, and the front of the house looks much better.
