Extended Block Paving Driveway in Keresley, Coventry

This is one of Summit Driveways' latest block paving projects installed during lock-down following social distancing guidelines. It was a complete transformation with the driveway being extended and rebuilt.

First we took out the original driveway and front walls and leveled off the raised area, allowing new steps to be built on the side. We installed a hardcore base on top of a heavy duty membrane.

New boundary walls were put up on the sides of the driveway and partially across the front and also copying the shape of the steps. We also installed brand new drainage system as the driveway is sloped and water pooling might cause damage in the future.

Our team has installed this driveway in 45° pattern, using Charcoal for the main paving and Brindle for the borders.

To finish the job, we poured down a strip of tarmac at the entrance of the driveway to join it with the public footpath.
