Surfacing options
-
Block paving, resin bound, tarmac, gravel and concrete each wear, drain and cost differently, so we set out what each one is actually like to live with.
-
Resin bound is permeable and resin bonded is not, which is the difference between needing permission and not.
-
Block paving can be lifted and relaid over a service run, which matters when a meter or a drain sits under it.
-
Samples brought out and wet down on your own drive, because every one of these changes colour in the rain.
Base and drainage
-
A drive carries a car, not a chair, so the sub-base goes deeper than a patio needs and is compacted in layers rather than in one go.
-
We dig a trial hole first, because clay, gravel and made ground each want a different depth underneath.
-
Falls set away from the house and garage, with a linear drain across the threshold.
-
Over five square metres out front has to be permeable, or drain to a permeable area.
Kerbs and access
-
Dropped kerbs applied for on your behalf, though the council decides it and normally builds the crossing, so we check before you commit.
-
Edging kerbs haunched in concrete, since an unrestrained edge is where block paving starts to spread.
-
Manholes, gullies and meter covers brought up to the new level, with recessed trays where they show in the paving.
-
Gates, posts and ducting set in before surfacing, and the drive swept and the road washed off each day.
