Expert Driveway Paving Contractors in Brighton

Resin bound gravel if properly installed can last around 20 + years. This will be influenced by maintenance, usage and the dynamics of the driveway itself.

Resin Bound Gravel can be installed using a fully permeable, SUDS compliant method as long as the soil underneath the sub base is free draining and does not contain clay.

Permeable block paving is achievable although can prove extremely expensive the permeability is short lived. The blocks are laid onto a permeable base and then the gaps are filled with a very fine grit to allow the water to drain between the gaps in the blocks. If these gaps are not kept clean and free from seasonal detritus they will block up and essentially seal the driveway. It is also very important that no type of permeable driveway is laid in an area with heavy clay soil.

Block paving is best cleaned by a specialist company using a rotating brush and cleaning chemicals. The use and frequent overuse of a jet spray can wash out the sealing sand causing blocks to move and water to destabilise the laying surface.
