website here Block Paving in Cheshire - Manchester - Dyson's Driveways
tarmac and concrete is a no no for me also planning permission is a must for them so extra £150
block paved people will slope the drive so it flowes into my garden soil/grass so no need for PP

you may get it cheaper but the council have to do it at their cost, so if the council were to find out you had the kerb lowered, they would charge you for putting it back, and then charge you again for lowering it (whether they physically do that I dont know but it happened round where I used to live)
