Your driveway is not just a parking space for your car – it is the first thing that visitors will see at your home. A tired, cracked, or poorly executed driveway detracts from the appearance of your property, whereas a new, well laid surface makes a huge improvement to its kerb appeal and usability.
For over 20 years, Set in Stone Paving has been designing and installing quality driveways across Buckinghamshire, Windsor and Berkshire, Wokingham, Aylesbury and surrounding areas. We are a family-run company, fully qualified and fully insured, and we carry out all our work to a very high standard at an affordable price. We do not ask for any deposit for any works that we do.
If you are thinking of upgrading your driveway, here are five great reasons to do it this year.
1)Increase the Kerb Appeal of Your Home
Your driveway is an important part of your property’s first impression. Whether you opt for a block paving driveway for timeless charm, resin bound for a modern stylish finish, or tarmac for a clean and practical finish, a new driveway can transform the exterior of your home immediately. Well-laid paving will not only look fantastic, it will also convey to visitors and potential buyers a quality and level of care taken.
2) Improve Property Value
A new driveway can provide a good return on investment. Estate agents will tell you that a driveway, supplied and laid by a professional can add substantial value to a property. This will add true value to a property, especially in areas where off-street parking is desirable. A clean, well laid durable surface is something that buyers like and appreciate when they are considering the price.
3)Enhance practicality and safety
A rough or worn driveway can lead to intractable trip hazards, and drainage issues or damage your vehicle’s suspension. By upgrading, you’re providing a level stable area for pedestrians and vehicles, while we installing driveways with drainage so puddles are avoided, and therefore no long-term water damage occurs.
4)Suit Your Lifestyle and Desires
Your family may have grown, and you need more parking space. You might simply want a low-maintenance option like resin bound, or the natural look of shingle to suit a rural environment. Whatever your desires, we can design a and build a surface suited to your requirements to enhance your everyday life.
5)Option to Potentially Add Dropped Kerb
If you are planning to add or expand a driveway, a dropped kerb will be required legally for access reasons. At Set in Stone Paving take care of the complete service from obtaining the planning permission, and the dropped kerb licence (from as little as £150), to carry out the works meeting the minimum council standards. With fully qualified personnel and £10 million public liability insurance, you can be assured your project will be completed safely and responsibly.
