FAQ

Driveways questions

Which driveway surface lasts longest?

Concrete and brick paving, and well-laid asphalt that is sealed periodically, can all last for many years. The biggest factor in every case is the base underneath and good drainage, which is where we put our effort.

Can you resurface my existing driveway?

Often, yes. If the base is sound we can overlay or resurface it. If it has failed, we'll recommend repairing the base first so the new surface doesn't crack in the same places.
