1. Driveway Landscaping Design
Driveways and the surrounding landscaping are an essential aspect to your property; it will create the first impression in the visitors mind. Disorganised or un-planned it leaves a negative lasting impression. It normally serves two purposes, entrance to the front door or storage area for vehicular traffic.
The use of decorative Setts in either cobble or smooth (Kingspave Setts) laid in double or triple rows along the perimeter of your paving enhances the visualise impact of the selected paving. Additionally the use of Kerbing also creates a distinction between your soft landscaping and the paving. Within the soft landscaping flowering plants in the form of flowerbeds along the length of the driveway create a welcoming effect. Additionally the use of decorative stones (see our section on stones) provide colour and protection from weeds giving you a maintenance free garden. |

2. Planning for your new Patio this Summer
Landscape Architects and Designers when designing patio’s tend to sketch right over plans using tracing paper with various different shapes and designs, finally deciding on the one that “makes sense”. Looking good on paper usually means it’ll look good when built.
The best designs normally take your house into consideration, how the shape of your house relates to the shape of your property. The most pleasing patio shape often co-ordinates with the angles of your house. There’s also the question of size, consider what the area will be most used for, family gatherings, larger parties etc. Most people tend to build patios without taking into account the basics. Will the area hold a table and six chairs comfortably? Will the barbeque/ cooking area also fit? Are you positioning the patio to take full advantage of natural sunlight for the best part of the day? By combining different products from our range in your patio you create stunning extra living space. The Barleystone Granite Effect Paving in Yellow coupled with the Kingspave Maple Setts laid in squares offers a unique clean lasting design. Simple mixes of Damson and Birch colours allow you the flexability to create your own unique individual retreat. |
