FAQs – Driveways in Southend On Sea
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.
At Avenue Driveways, we work with a wide range of high quality natural stones including:
• Sandstone – A versatile choice with rich textures and warm tones
• Limestone – A smooth and stylish option with excellent durability
• Granite – A premium, hard wearing stone known for its strength and polished appearance
• Slate – A unique, rustic material ideal for creating character filled outdoor spaces
• York stone – A traditional British favourite, perfect for classic paving designs
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.
Absolutely! Tarmac is a versatile and durable surfacing solution suitable for both residential and commercial properties. It is commonly used for driveways, paths, car parks, private roads and forecourts due to its smooth finish and strength.
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
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.
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.
Natural stone paving offers a timeless and elegant appearance that enhances the beauty of any outdoor space. Unlike concrete or manufactured alternatives, natural stone is:
• Extremely durable and resistant to weathering
• Low maintenance, requiring only occasional cleaning
• Highly customisable with a wide variety of colours, textures and finishes
• A long term investment, increasing your property’s value
• Sustainable and ecofriendly, as it is a natural resource
