A natural finish with practical choices
Gravel and shingle form a loose layer of stone over a prepared driveway base. Stone colour, size and shape affect the appearance and how the surface behaves under tyres. We discuss the look you prefer alongside everyday parking, turning and pedestrian use.
Unlike resin bound surfacing, the stones are not fixed together. That distinction matters when comparing upkeep, accessibility and the feel of the finished driveway.
Good preparation and contained edges
We inspect the ground, existing base, levels and drainage before recommending construction. Edging and the entrance layout help contain loose stone, while the gradient can influence whether gravel is a suitable choice. Water management depends on the whole driveway, not just the top layer.
Know what to expect after installation
Loose stone moves with use. Allow for occasional raking, clearing leaves and returning displaced stones; some areas may need topping up over time. We discuss the likely care requirements at your site visit so you can decide whether the finish fits your routine.

Your questions answered
Is gravel suitable for a sloping driveway?
It depends on the slope and how vehicles enter and turn. We assess these details before recommending a loose-stone surface. Another finish may suit a steep entrance or particular access needs better.
Can you put gravel over the driveway I already have?
We need to inspect the existing surface and base first. Simply covering poor construction can leave drainage and stability problems unresolved. Your quotation will explain the preparation needed.
