Your Driveway Questions Answered
Choosing a new driveway is a significant investment, and it’s important to understand your options before making a decision. At Driveways Borough Green, we are always happy to provide advice and answer any questions you may have about our services, installation process, and driveway materials.
Below are some of the most common questions we receive from homeowners throughout Borough Green and the surrounding areas.
What types of driveways do you install?
We specialise in three main driveway solutions:
- Resin Bound Driveways
- Block Paving Driveways
- Tarmac Driveways
Each offers its own advantages, and we can help you determine which option is best suited to your property and budget.
Do you offer free quotations?
Yes. We provide free, no-obligation site visits and quotations throughout Borough Green and nearby areas.
How long does a driveway installation take?
Most driveway projects are completed within 3 to 10 working days. The exact timescale depends on the size of the driveway, the chosen material, and the amount of preparation work required.
Which driveway surface is best for my property?
The ideal surface depends on your budget, style preferences, maintenance expectations, and practical requirements. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the most suitable option for your property.
What are the benefits of a resin bound driveway?
Resin bound driveways offer:
- A modern appearance
- Excellent drainage
- Low maintenance requirements
- Long lifespan
- A wide choice of colours and finishes
They are a popular choice for homeowners seeking a premium finish.
Are resin bound driveways permeable?
Yes. Resin bound surfaces allow rainwater to drain naturally through the surface, helping to reduce puddles and standing water.
How long does a resin driveway last?
Why is block paving so popular?
Block paving offers exceptional flexibility in design, excellent durability, and the ability to create a completely bespoke driveway tailored to your property.
Can individual paving blocks be replaced?
Yes. One of the major advantages of block paving is that damaged or stained blocks can often be replaced individually without affecting the rest of the driveway.
Does block paving require sealing?
Is tarmac a good choice for residential driveways?
Absolutely. Tarmac is durable, affordable, low maintenance, and suitable for a wide variety of residential properties.
How long does a tarmac driveway last?
A professionally installed tarmac driveway can often last 15–20 years or more when properly maintained.
Can decorative features be added to a tarmac driveway?
Yes. Many homeowners choose to add block paving borders, edging, pathways, and drainage features to enhance the appearance of a tarmac driveway.
Do you remove old driveways before installation?
Yes. Where required, we remove existing surfaces and carry out all necessary groundwork before installing the new driveway.
Do you install drainage systems?
Yes. Proper drainage is an important part of any driveway installation, and we can incorporate suitable drainage solutions where needed.
Will a new driveway increase my property’s value?
A professionally installed driveway can improve kerb appeal and may contribute to the overall attractiveness and value of your property.
