Driveways 4 You replaced a discoloured concrete driveway and adjoining clay area at Muckcross Park, Perrystown, Dublin 12. The new driveway has an SMA tarmac finish, a natural silver granite frame made with two stone sizes and a wide matching entrance step.
Removing the Old Concrete Driveway
We lifted the old concrete and removed the adjoining clay area so the entire driveway could be prepared for a single surface.
Preparing the Sub-Base and Setting the Falls
Once the old materials were removed, we prepared the sub-base and set the levels and falls for the new driveway. This groundwork established how the finished tarmac would meet the granite frame and how rainwater would run off the surface.
Silver Granite Framing and a Wide Entrance Step
We used two sizes of natural silver granite to define the driveway, with a broad band of stone across the entrance. At the front door, a wide silver granite step carries the same finish through to the house.
Completed SMA Tarmac Driveway
We laid the SMA tarmac to meet the level of the granite frame. The dark surface contrasts with the silver granite along the sides and across the entrance, bringing the former concrete and clay areas together as one driveway.
