Asphalt Driveway with Sandstone borders in Rossbrook

Take a look at this Asphalt driveway in Rossbrook, Cork, completed by your local contractors at Excel Driveways.

We dug out and removed the original surface. Then we installed an 804 sub-base for our solid foundation. We laid a strip of Natural Sandstone blocks along the front of the house and we used the same blocks in smaller sizes to create a defined borders around the driveway.

The newly created area was then filled with SMA, also known as Stone-Matrix Asphalt. This surface is designed to minimize deformation and suits any heavily trafficked roads and drives.

Patio Transformation in Glasheen, Cork

Here we have a patio transformation in Glasheen, Cork, completed by our team at Excel Driveways.

We started by taking out the old broken concrete slabs and turf. We leveled of the area and installed a protective membrane sheeting as well as a layer of paving grit to lay the flags on.

The owners opted for the Kilsaran Classic flags with charcoal border. These flags are as popular today as they have always been, for their easy maintenance and classy look.

We also installed a small step at the door, using the same flags.

With the playhouse and doghouse being moved to the far corner of the patio, we have now created an open and coherent space for relaxation.

Triple Block Paving Driveway Project in Douglas, Cork

We, at Excel Driveways, have recently tackled an extensive Block Paving project in Douglas, Cork. Not one, not two, but three joined driveways were transformed simultaneously.

As always we started by removing the previous surface, in this case old tarmac and lawn. We remodeled the layout, significantly increasing the space for parking in all these driveways.

All three driveways are installed on the same 804 durable sub-base and are set on top of a bed of paving sand grit.

Each owner picked a slightly different colour combination, and yet they compliment each other beautifully.

The left driveway was laid with Natural Granite Cobbles with a border of White. For the middle driveway, the owners opted for a Curragh Blend with a Natural Cobble border. And finally, we installed the right driveway in the same Curragh Blend as the previous one, however the border is in Charcoal.

As proven above, no project is ever too small or too big for our Block Paving experts at Excel Driveways. If you would like to find out more, give us a call today or use the following link https://www.exceldriveways.ie/paving-contractors-cork/ to obtain more information.
