FAQs – Gravel Drives & Paths in East Anglia
Unlike tarmac or concrete, gravel driveways do not crack. However, over time, high traffic areas may develop slight dips. These are easily repaired by redistributing the gravel or adding a fresh layer of stone when needed.
Yes! We offer a wide selection of gravel types, colours and sizes to match your property’s aesthetic. You can also enhance your driveway with features like block paving borders, granite setts or decorative entrance rumble strips for a unique and polished look.
The cost of a gravel driveway depends on factors such as the size of the area, the type of gravel chosen and any additional features like edging or stabilisation layers. At Avenue Driveways, we provide free site assessments and no obligation quotes, ensuring you get a driveway that suits your needs and budget.
A well installed and properly maintained gravel driveway can last many decades. Over time, you may need to top up the gravel to maintain the desired level and appearance, but the surface itself remains highly durable with minimal upkeep.
Gravel driveways are relatively low maintenance, requiring only occasional raking to level out any displaced stones and the occasional top-up of gravel to keep the surface looking fresh. We also install a stabilising membrane underneath to reduce weed growth and shifting.
Gravel is a highly permeable material, which means it allows water to drain naturally, reducing the risk of standing water or flooding. Unlike solid surfaces, it does not crack in cold weather, making it ideal for the UK climate.
