Stop Those Muddy Footprints
Posted on: 20/11/2014Paved driveways can do more for your home than you might initially think. An unpaved driveway full of stones, grass and soil can be a nightmare this time of year as the rain makes it easier than ever to tread mess indoors. While a small problem to some it is something that can be easily avoided if you consider a paved alternative, saving you time and effort during the colder months. Paving your driveway also comes with a number of other benefits that can help to improve your home and make it better than ever before.
Key benefits of paving
Whether you are just paving over your old driveway or looking to replace your whole front garden, choosing a paved option offers many advantages over a typical driveway.
- Add value to your home: A home with a high-quality driveway is likely to sell for more money. The value that gets added to your home is likely to outweigh the cost of the installation too, making them a sound investment both now and for the future.
- Improve your home’s appearance: A driveway that is old and uncared for is not as pleasing to look at. By paving your driveway you can inject new life into the front of your property and make it more inviting to passersby.
- Durability: Block paving is a strong material that is going to be very resistant to the elements and every day wear-and-tear, meaning you are unlikely to need a repair or replacement for many years to come.
- Drainage: We make sure to use a special drainage channel to ensure that all water runs off the driveway surface, reducing the chance of any water damage. To stop any weeds from growing through we also make sure to build onto a concrete base.
Range of design options available
One of the great features of paving is that there is an extensive range of styles, finishes and design options to choose from. This means that no matter what look you are trying to create there is sure to be paving out there to suit your needs.
- Colours: We offer block paving in a choice of many different colours that will compliment the brickwork of your home, paintwork or overall landscape design from bright sandy colours to darker reds and terracotta.
- Patterns: Paving stones of different styles and colours allow you to create a variety of shapes and patterns on your driveway. Whether you want a standard paving installation or a clever design that incorporates an image or pattern, there are an endless amount of options available.
