There are several materials that can be used to build a driveway, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
Concrete driveways
Concrete is one of the most popular materials for residential driveways, and with a huge variety of colours, finishes and textures available, there is a style of concrete to suit any home. Exposed aggregate concrete driveway is a popular option for many homeowners.
Coloured exposed aggregate driveways are also a popular option with a large range of colours available to create unique finishes and blend in with or juxtapose other landscaping materials. For example, stamped concrete driveways are adopted for their durability and low maintenance
Asphalt driveways and shingle driveways
Asphalt driveways are another popular option, with a more rugged feel. They’re often chosen for large rural properties where a driveway can be a more extensive part of the overall site.
Shingle driveways
Shingle driveways are another coveted option, creating a unique look and feel. Compacted gravel driveways can provide an alternative to concrete, and a more cost-effective solution at the outset. However, these can require significantly more maintenance over time to ensure their integrity remains intact over the years.
Drivable grass pavers and Grass driveways
Drivable grass pavers and grass driveways are eco-friendly alternatives to concrete or asphalt. Drivable grass pavers are grids filled with soil and grass, while grass driveways use reinforced bases with grass growing through. They reduce runoff, promote soil and vegetation growth, and lower urban heat. Maintenance includes mowing, fertilization, and weed control. They may not be suitable for high-traffic areas or harsh winters.
Brick driveways
Brick driveways offer a classic, elegant look to a property. They are durable and can withstand heavy use, making them suitable for high-traffic areas. Bricks come in a variety of colours, shapes, and patterns, allowing for customisation and creativity in design.
Cobblestone driveways
Cobblestone driveways add a touch of rustic charm to any property. Made from small, irregularly shaped stones, cobblestone driveways can provide a unique and visually appealing entrance to your home. One of the benefits of cobblestone driveways is their durability.
Resin bound driveways
Resin driveways are an attractive and practical solution. This type of driveway surfacing is known for its durability, and it can withstand the wear and tear of daily use, as well as exposure to the elements, such as rain, snow, and sunlight. Resin bound driveways are low maintenance and available in a wide range of colours and patterns.
Porcelain driveways
Porcelain driveways are a relatively new type of driveway surface that has been gaining popularity among homeowners in recent years. Made from high-quality porcelain tiles, these driveways offer a number of advantages such as their durability, but also their resistance to damage, making them ideal for use as a driveway surface.
Pebble driveways

The smooth, rounded stones come in a variety of colours and textures, ranging from soft earth tones to bright and vibrant shades, and can create a distinctive and eye-catching look for a driveway.
