FAQs – Driveways in Southend On Sea
Natural stone is relatively low maintenance, but regular upkeep can help maintain its appearance and longevity. We recommend:
• Occasional sweeping and washing to remove dirt and debris
• Sealing the stone to protect against stains and moisture
• Treating it with a weed-resistant membrane to prevent growth between slabs
• Using a mild detergent for any stubborn stains or marks
Yes! One of the biggest advantages of a resin bound driveway is its permeability. The structure allows water to drain naturally through the surface, preventing puddles and reducing the risk of flooding. It also complies with Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) regulations, meaning you typically won’t need planning permission.
Yes, tar and chip is a superior alternative to loose gravel. While loose gravel can shift, requiring regular maintenance to keep it in place, tar and chip secures stones with hot bitumen, preventing displacement and ensuring a longer-lasting surface.
Tarmac is designed to withstand a range of weather conditions including high temperatures. While extreme heat can cause slight softening, this is generally not an issue in the UK’s climate. We use high quality tarmac mixtures that provide excellent resistance to temperature changes.
No, tar and chip driveways require very little maintenance compared to other surfaces. Unlike block paving which may need weeding and re-sanding, tar and chip is a low maintenance solution that stays intact for years with minimal upkeep.
The cost of natural stone paving depends on several factors, including:
• The type of stone chosen
• The size of the area to be paved
• Custom features like edging, steps or intricate patterns
• The level of ground preparation required before installation
The cost of a tarmac driveway depends on factors such as the size of the area, the level of groundwork required and any additional features like edging or drainage. At Avenue Driveways, we provide free site surveys and no obligation quotes ensuring you get a fair and accurate price based on your specific needs.
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.
