Hot tar and golden pre-coated spec driveway with charcoal edgings 3 - Halesworth

Maintenance Free Project

We were called in to do a full landscaping package for a new customer in Halesworth. This is because they had no patio area, level drive or garden. We had a long detailed site meeting on how our clients would like their finished project to look. Going away we evaluated our customers plan and put together a realistic solution using the correct material to ensure all of their wants are needs could be materialised.

To start the job new flower beds were very simple to create. All of the flower beds are filled with mushroom compost ready for planting. Next we dug the old lawn off and put down newly laid top soil screened to 10mm. To finish of the job we then laid fresh turf on the lawn area.

Hard landscaping

For the job we excavated all of the heavy clay to get ready for the new paving and driveway areas. First major part of the construction job was the patio area. We used crushed hardcore as the foundation for the patio; which gives a strong and solid base . This was then constructed by using Fossil Mint Indian Sandstone paving slabs.

Finally the driveway was dug out and capped with a new crushed concrete foundation. We then edged the drive using charcoal block edgings and then we surfaced the drive area. To surface the drive we used 10mm SMA with a golden pre-coated stone. This driveway design is very low maintenance; due to all of the stones being rolled into the tarmac.
