Gravel & Shingle Driveways in Leominster

Leominster 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. Leominster's market-town centre includes a number of period and black-and-white style properties, while the surrounding area is largely agricultural, meaning many of the driveways we quote here are longer rural approaches rather than short urban plots. For these longer rural drives, gravel or tarmac tend to be the more practical and cost-effective choice over a fully bound surface. Herefordshire's clay-heavy soils make proper drainage falls worth getting right on every job, rural or in-town.
