Driveway paving

[stevenrafferty]

I'm looking for ideas for repaving my driveway?

Its fairly short, just over a car length, leading up to the garage and slopes a quite a bit towards the pavement.

At present, we have chips odwn, which are spreading onto the pavement given the lack of any lid/edge where the driveway meets the pavement.

I don't want to install an edge to bump over and was thinking of carpet stones or setts, but worried that these may get slippy when wet.

Anyone have any bright ideas?

Paving bricks are smart, but will sink if you don't bed them in drylean mix or similar. they are prone to weeds and moss in the joints if not mortared.

Bonded Aggregate looks like gravel, but the stones are held together with glue. Needs a firm base.

If you pave a drive make sure it has a very firm base of compacted stone, and bed the slabs on a mortar bed. Make sure also that the slabs are designed for the punishment of a car.

im not a fan of concrete, but if you do it in small sections and seperate it with brick on edge details into small areas it can look effective. Either that or go with wabbits idea as that can look effective.
