Brindle Block Paving Driveway in Nuneaton

Here are a few pictures of a new driveway completed by Summit Driveways in Nuneaton.

First we took up the two original layers, and dug out space for the new foundation. We laid down a new hardcore membrane and topped it with type 1 hardcore sub-base. Then we compacted it down and screeded the sand.

We installed new flat top edging at the front of the driveway and laid down a double border of Charcoal blocks. For the main paving we used Brindle block paving and laid it in a 45 degree Herringbone pattern.

New Indian Sandstone Patio with Turf in Nuneaton

This new patio has been recently finished by Summit Driveways in Nuneaton. It was a part of a big project and you can see the driveway part of it here.

The patio was originally very mucky and we took it all out. Then we re-soiled it, installed new drainage systems set in concrete and laid new turfing on.

We also created a new seating area with Indian Sandstone slabs. We laid some block paving around the back of the house and you can read about that process in the post mentioned above.

New Block Paving Driveway in Nuneaton

This new block paving driveway has been recently finished by Summit Driveways in Nuneaton. It was a part of a big project and you can see the patio part of it here.

Our first step was to remove the old concrete driveway and block paving edging.

We put in all new flat top kerbing around the whole perimeter. We installed new base of 804 stone as well as some membrane sheeting to prevent weed growth.

Our team used Brindle mix of paving blocks for the main paving and a border of Charcoal for a colour contrast. We also fashioned a new recess manhole cover that, unlike previously, seamlessly blends with the driveway.

Tarmac Driveway with New Drainage System in Mancetter, Atherstone

In this tarmac project we started by taking out the original surface and replacing it with a new hardcore base and membrane. We also installed new flat top concrete kerbing and new ACO drainage system at the foot of the house to prevent water damage.

We filled the outlined area with 3 inches thick layer of tarmac and power-rolled it down to 2 inches.
