Hello, I have just had a new driveway installed - tegula block paving.

The driveway is on a slope towards the pavement. Whilst the top of the driveway dried out quickly the bottom 6 feet or so has stayed damp presumably due to water flow underneath (?) the paving. Just wondering if this is cause for concern or if there is anything that can be done such as having a drain put in at the bottom.

Many thanks

You should have an aco, or similar channel for threshold drainage.
