Gravel & Shingle Driveways in Bromyard

Bromyard customers looking for gravel & shingle driveways turn to Severn Vale Driveways. Gravel and shingle driveways suit period cottages, rural properties and larger drives where a natural, informal look is wanted without the cost of a fully bound surface. Done properly, it's a genuinely permeable, low-maintenance option — the key word being 'properly', because a gravel drive laid straight onto bare soil without edge restraints or a stable sub-base will rut, spread onto the lawn, and need topping up before long. We install proper edging, a compacted permeable sub-base and, where useful, a geotextile membrane to stop the stone working its way into the ground beneath, so the gravel stays where it's put. We can source a range of gravel and shingle types to suit the property, from traditional golden gravel to darker slate chippings. Bromyard is a small rural Herefordshire market town surrounded by agricultural land, and a good number of the properties we quote here have longer driveways serving farmhouses and rural homes rather than short urban frontages. For these longer rural approaches, gravel or tarmac are usually the more practical, cost-effective options over a fully bound surface. Herefordshire's clay-heavy ground makes proper drainage falls worth getting right on every job, however long or short the driveway.
