Hi,
I have a bit of a problem with my driveway, as I can only get my car onto it by driving very slowly at a specific angle to avoid scraping the underside.
I have just put up with it since I moved in but I could really do with being able to drive straight onto it, so I want to try and do something about it (other than getting a higher car!)
The road is in a bit of a state, and my actual driveway is on a concrete pad that is raised up above the road. I had considered putting a load of gravel / hardcore or something down on the road to build it up around my driveway, but I don't know if this would look bad, if it will last, or if I am actually allowed to do that.
I can't just pour a bit of concrete right next to it to make a small slope because the middle of the car will scrape before the back wheels reach the slope, so the raised up area needs to spread out a bit beyond the kerb/step.
The road is a dead end by the way, so there isn't much traffic.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
