The key benefit of gravel
or aggregate drives
is cost. This is the most cost-effective way to cover large areas quickly, eg., a long drive leading to a country house, hotel or golf club. What’s more, with the wide range of attractive, natural stone available, aggregate or gravel drives create an instant attractive, natural, rustic look which blends into the surroundings. Gravel drives are also permeable allowing rainwater to soak into the ground. Many homeowners, especially in rural locations, like gravel drives because you can hear approaching cars or people which acts as an added security measure. And whilst loose gravel does need replenishing from time to time, the lower cost of this surfacing option compensates for this approach.
We also install driveway gravel retention grids and systems. If you like the look of gravel driveways, but are looking for a lower maintenance option, Cheshire Paving Company also offers resin-bonded driveways - read more.
