Case study
Gravel and setts driveway
A long gravel driveway edged and banded with setts.
The challenge
A long driveway needed a hard-wearing surface with defined edges to keep the gravel in place.
How we delivered it
Stage 1: Setts
A band of setts was laid across the driveway.
Stage 2: Gravel and edging
The driveway was finished in gravel, edged with setts along its length.
The result
A driveway with defined edges that keep the gravel where it belongs.
