Driveway Materials – Finding the Perfect Solution for Your Hove Home
Block Paving
Our most popular driveway option offers unmatched versatility in design and colour. Available in concrete or clay, block paving can be arranged in numerous patterns including herringbone, basketweave, and stretcher bond. With proper installation and minimal maintenance, block paved driveways can last 20+ years.
Natural Stone
For properties requiring a premium finish, our natural stone driveways provide timeless elegance. Options include granite setts, limestone, and sandstone, each bringing unique character and exceptional durability to your property entrance.
Resin-Bound Surfaces
Contemporary and low-maintenance, resin-bound driveways offer excellent permeability for sustainable drainage. Available in numerous aggregate colours and sizes, these surfaces provide a smooth, puddle-free finish ideal for modern properties.
