For this project, SDL Driveways Leicester transformed a bungalow’s driveway using granite stone Sorrento block paving, finished with a charcoal border for a clean, defined look.
The client wanted a modern and elegant driveway that would complement their home and provide a durable, low-maintenance surface.
The result? A stunning new driveway that improves the property’s appearance while offering long-lasting strength and practicality.
Challenges & Requirements
- The existing driveway was worn and uneven, requiring a complete excavation and rebuild.
- The client wanted a luxurious yet durable surface that would complement the bungalow’s exterior.
- A contrasting charcoal border was chosen to frame the driveway and enhance its visual appeal.
The Installation Process
- Excavation & Ground Preparation: The old surface was removed, and the ground was leveled before adding a compacted sub-base for strength.
- Edging & Borders: A charcoal border was laid first to create a clean frame around the driveway.
- Laying the Granite Sorrento Blocks: The granite stone Sorrento paving was carefully laid in a uniform pattern, ensuring a seamless and stylish finish.
- Compaction & Final Touches: The driveway was compacted for stability, and jointing sand was applied to lock the blocks into place.
The Result
The finished driveway complements the bungalow beautifully, adding a sophisticated and polished look. The granite Sorrento paving provides a sleek, modern appearance, while the charcoal border creates a crisp, defined edge.
More than just visually appealing, this new driveway is built to last, offering durability, weather resistance, and easy maintenance.
