Gravel & Gravel Grid Driveway Construction
Gravel installations are very popular with homeowners especially with features such as being eco-friendly, permeable & low cost.
There are multiple benefits from choosing gravel driveway construction. It is significantly cheaper than other driveway surfaces especially on larger areas & is available in a wide range of colours & sizes suitable for any home and if correctly installed will last for many years.
By installing gravel grids will add more strength if your surface suffers from heavy traffic & will help stabilise the gravel which has been installed.
With areas such as paths or patios you can use a smaller size stone as these areas will only experience foot traffic.

Gravel Driveway Installers In Cumbria & South Scotland
Gravel installing process for gravel driveways, paths & patios starts off with excavating the area & removing the waste from site then back fill the area with a suitable
sub-base / hardcore foundation. Then we install a permeable membrane sheeting over the full area to suppress weeds & separate the finish gravel & foundation from mixing together.
(Option of installing gravel grids to the driveway with optional block pave edging)
The next step is to install your chosen gravel / shingle to the correct levels and then compact with a road roller.
