If you’re searching for a cheap option for your driveway or patio, we recommend using shingle or gravel. Gravel is considerably less expensive to install, even on a large area such as open driveways. The size and colour of the gravel can vary greatly; we’ll help you decide what type would look best in your location.
Gravel enhances the appearance of any building when laid by an expert. You may use a paving border or combine it with stone paving blocks to add a classic touch to it. Some homeowners prefer a smooth driveway as an arrival point; therefore we provide the option of graveling the driveway and building right in front of the house a solid surface. We generally lay down a beautiful block paving area to separate the gravel from the dirt and give a clean and slick entrance to the home.

What are the benefits of having a gravel driveway or patio?
A gravel driveway or patio can be a great addition to your home. It can provide extra parking space and is a cheaper option than paving. Gravel is also easy to maintain and can add some character to your home.
How long will my gravel driveway last?
Although the lifespan of a gravel driveway can depend on a number of factors, such as the type of gravel used, how well it is maintained and the weather conditions in your area, you can expect a gravel driveway to last for around 10 to 15 years.
How long does it take to install a gravel driveway?
It can take up to a day to install a gravel driveway, depending on the size and complexity of the project.
How can I ensure my gravel driveway or patio lasts for many years?
To ensure your gravel driveway or patio lasts for many years, you should seal it with a paving sealant. This will protect it from the elements and keep it looking new for longer.
How do I keep my gravel driveway clean?
To keep your gravel driveway clean, it is important to sweep it regularly. This will remove any dirt, leaves, or other debris that may have accumulated. You can use a broom or a leaf blower to do this. You may also want to hose it down occasionally to get rid of any stubborn dirt or mud.
What do I do if my gravel driveway starts to sink
If your gravel driveway starts to sink, we may need to add more gravel to level it out. This is less likely to happen as we install a supportive membrane beneath your gravel but the surface beneath can always become uneven.
Do I need to use specific gravel for a driveway or patio feature?
No, you do not need to use specific gravel for a driveway or patio feature. Any type of gravel will work for these purposes, but we will help and recommend high quality gravel and supply it for you.
