Driveways
Your driveway is essentially a functional construction providing vehicle parking and/or a route to a garage or car port. That said, it is generally a prominent part of your property when viewed from the road and as such is worthy of some consideration when you are thinking of having it relaid.

SCP Landscapes construct driveways using block paving, granite setts and gravel. These materials can be used singly or in any combination to provide the most pleasing and functional effect for you.

The durability of a driveway is a most important factor and the weight and volume of traffic need to be assessed in order to determine the correct specification for the materials required.

Block paving is available in a number of different sizes and thicknesses and in a variety of colours and textures, including standard paviors, tumbled blocks, natural blocks and blocks with a distressed finish.

Granite setts are very durable and a popular alternative to block paving; they are more resistant to wear and tear and can be laid in many different configurations. They are generally available as cubes, approximately 100mm square or rectangular, between 75mm to 100mm wide in lengths ranging between 150mm to 300mm. Colours vary according to where the granite has been quarried and range through blues, greys and pinks.

Gravel driveways are another excellent option and you can choose the size of gravel you want from a variety of different stone types and colours. Standard golden blend, terracotta, welsh blue or ice green chippings are just some of the options available.

SCP Landscapes will show you samples of the range and variety of materials from which you can choose.

SCP Landscapes will be happy to explore the options with you so that you are well informed to make your decision on the functionality and appearance of your new driveway.
