Driveways

You only get one chance to make a first impression, so your front garden is one of your property’s most important outdoor spaces. Not only does it have to look great but it also has to be practical. A well-installed driveway is a valuable asset for your home, allowing vehicles to be parked off the road keeping children safe. 

There are several surfaces suitable for drives. The most popular are block paving, resin and paving.  

Block Paving Driveways

Block paving has become a popular choice for drives over the last 50 years. The shapes and colours of the blocks have expanded over that time allowing you to personalise your driveway to complement the style of your house. 

The advantages of block paving drives are: 

  • Versatility of shapes and colours of the individual blocks 
  • Permeable – the small gaps between the block allow water to drain through 
  • Low maintenance – a regular power wash will keep your driveway clean 
  • Hard wearing – well-laid, a block paving driveway will last for many years 

Resin Driveways

Resin driveways are an attractive, long-lasting alternative to gravel, concrete and paving and once installed need little maintenance. The resin is combined with small stones to form a firm surface with minute gaps in between which allows water to drain through into the ground. 

We offer a wide range of colours and textures which complement the architecture of your house and the design of your front garden. The colours range from white, light and dark grey, buff, green, to almost black. Combining different shades results in a unique look. 

The main advantages of a resin drive are: 

  • No loose stones – unlike gravel or shingle which can be trodden into the home  
  • Firm under foot making it safe for the elderly, disabled and small children 
  • Low maintenance. A quick sweep and periodic power wash will keep the drive looking like new 
  • Permeable – reducing puddles 
  • Can be laid on top of suitable existing surfaces 
  • A design can be added to the drive to personalise the space 

Resin bound gravel is also suitable for pathways, patios and balconies.
