Gravel driveways
come in various sizes and form, they are sourced
in a variety of colors and grades, and they present
a loose surface for cars and pedestrians. A gravel
driveway has the advantage of giving the owner
increased security at their homes as any vehicle
or foot traffic can be heard.
Typical sizes:
Aggregate size varies from 6mm
to 20mm generally.
Finishes Available:
Aggregate for gravel driveways
can be sourced in many different colours and shades
but generally the aggregate is sourced locally.
Timescales for completion:
Depending on the size of the
area will depend on how long the job will take.
How long will a gravel
driveway last:
Gravel driveways are not maintenance
free and do require light maintenance. The better
the driveway is maintained the longer the life
span. Usually we would expect to have to top up
a gravel driveway with extra aggregate every couple
of years as the amount of shingle on the driveway
will diminish with wear.
FAQ's:
Will I get the
gravel in my house? Quite possibly.
Will I get weeds growing through it? Possibly
but light weed treatment on an annual basis will
help avoid this.
