The Best Driveway Materials For Your Home

Driveways are something you use nearly every day. Therefore, it’s essential that they work as intended.

The key to a great driveway is the material used to construct it. But which should you choose? 

That’s where this post can help. Here, we take a look at the best driveway material to help you make a decision.

Resin Bound
Resin-bound driveways, also known as resin-bound gravel have become a popular choice in recent years. It offers a range of benefits: curb appeal, durability, and is easy to maintain.  The surface which is made of particulate material (stones, sand, and gravel) and resin is permeable, flexible, and resistant to cracking. When properly installed and maintained it can last up to 25 years.

Gravel
Gravel is a cheap and cheerful material that can give your home a rustic, natural feel. It looks great on long driveways or on properties with enough space outside for several cars to park. It’s also quick to construct.

Paving
Paving is another great option. It looks elegant and beautiful and adds style to any driveway.

It also offers some practical benefits. Paving, for instance, is relatively easy to repair. If a small section of your driveway becomes damaged for any reason, you can simply replace the old stone with a new one.

Asphalt
Lastly, you might want to consider an asphalt driveway. Companies use these all the time, but they are just at home in a residential setting, too. Most will last about 20 years and don’t require much maintenance.
