Gravel

Gravel refers to small stones, generally 5-30mm in diameter, that may be angular or rounded.

Angular gravels for driveways are usually sourced from quarries, a by-product of the crushing processes, whereas rounded driveway gravels are from a fluvial source, such as an old river bed, beaches, and channel dredging. Driveway Gravels can be of almost any colour, depending on the parent rock type, or even a multi-coloured blend. Gravel driveways will give a nice touch to your home.

  • Resolved Question: when should i send my payment for dropped kerb?

    I applied for a dropped kerb on 24/10/11, got permission from landlord then waited 5 weeks to get the pavement measured and marked up. Was told I would receive an estimate of costs in 2 weeks time. I actually got it 2 days before christmas, I sent the form back accepting the costs straight away, and I am still waiting for an answer back. I was'nt asked for any money yet, so wondering does anybody know when I am supposed to pay for the work, and how much longer will I have to wait to drive onto my driveway which I was told at the time of inspection to go ahead and have it done, it is a gravel driveway, so I can't drive up the kerb without draggin the stones off with car wheels, and in any case it is illegal to drive up, I was told, even though my next door neighbour did when he had his blocked paved drive done. Anybody have ideas.

  • Resolved Question: who's CREATIVE PAVING EXETER?

  • Resolved Question: what are driveway rights?

    the landlord next door when she was living there knocked down her wall and parked her car inside, without the council paving the floor, now she's rented the property to the council and I have asylum somalian neighbours. The man who lives there comes and goes and rarely stays there, however when you park in front of the house and he comes he beeps the horn until someone moves their car, surely this can't be right? i'm parked on a public road without marking or permits and he wants me to move, what are my rights in relation to this?

  • Resolved Question: Should block paved driveways be jet washed?

    I've had a block paved driveway for two years and having spent money on it, want to keep it clean. My question is if you should clean it by jet-washing it? Only reason I ask - using my limited but having observed issues like this - is that I know that the bricks are kept together by sand and by jet-washing them, the sand can be erased and allow weeds to grow from areas where the sand has gone. So, should jet washes be used to clean block paved driveways and secondly, any other better - but maybe longer - ways of cleaning it without the urge of weeds to grow?
