Gravel & Shingle Driveways in Saltford

Gravel & Shingle Driveways in Saltford

Saltford 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. Saltford sits on the River Avon between Bristol and Bath, and its mix of riverside properties and inland housing gives a real range of ground conditions across the village. Properties closer to the river benefit from careful drainage and fall assessment, while the rest of the village offers more straightforward ground. Block paving and resin-bound surfacing both suit Saltford's housing stock well.
