Shingle driveways

A softer look with built-in drainage

Gravel suits period homes and new builds alike, costs less than most hard surfaces and lets rain drain straight into the ground.

The details

How we do it

The trick is stopping the stones from wandering. We dig out, lay a compacted base and a weed membrane, then fit a honeycomb grid that locks the gravel in place. Solid edging goes round the whole drive and a block apron at the entrance keeps stones off the pavement.

What’s included

  • Dig-out and compacted base
  • Weed membrane
  • Honeycomb gravel grid
  • Block, kerb or timber edging
  • Block apron at the entrance
  • Choice of shingle colours

FAQs

Common questions

Something else on your mind? Call or WhatsApp us on 07535 161376.

Will gravel get kicked onto the road?

Very little, thanks to the grid and the block apron across the entrance.

Is it OK for heavy cars?

Yes. The grid spreads the load so it doesn’t rut.

Do weeds come through?

The membrane stops most of them. An occasional spray keeps it clear.
