Driveway Autumn Gold With Charcoal Border Project in Watford

Why did the client contact us?

The client in Watford wanted to improve the exterior of their detached property with a new driveway. They wanted something that looked good (their driveway is circular, so it is not uniform) but practical and durable to transform their existing driveway into a modern feature. We discussed options and recommended block paving for its versatility.

Block paving offers many colours and patterns, so the homeowner could have a driveway to match their property. They chose a gold colour with a charcoal border. This bespoke design using quality blocks added character and looked great. This driveway was circular with a lawn and tree in the middle, so block paving suited the design perfectly, and the colours looked lovely with the green of the grass.

One of the big advantages of block paving is its low maintenance. Individual blocks can be replaced if damaged, so it’s long-lasting and cost-effective. It’s also frost and UV-resistant. The gaps between the blocks allow drainage so water doesn’t accumulate on the surface.

What work was done?

Our team at Pavecraft started by excavating and preparing the ground, making sure the base was solid for the new driveway. Proper ground preparation is key to prevent shifting and ensure the longevity of the installation.

We then laid the block paving in the client’s chosen autumn gold colour with a charcoal border. The result was a beautiful and durable driveway that exceeded their expectations.
