BRETT HAS THE ANSWERS
TO YOUR DRIVEWAY QUESTIONS
For a successful driveway installation to be achieved needs careful design , a clear installation process - that ensures a solid subbase is installed - and that the chosen driveway product and finish is suited to the demands of the homeowner .
Helping your customers to choose the most suitable product is a key part of the process and the options for permeable or porcelain paving each have key benefits .
Permeable block paving
Permeable block paving is ideal for the weather conditions experienced in the UK . The systems have been designed to help prevent localised flooding and water pooling on a driveway . Water is effectively drained away from the surface through the open-graded sub-base and ideally soak into the ground .
It should be emphasised that there are a number of advantages for builders opting for permeable paving beyond the primary purpose of the management of water . There is a greater range of products and finishes available across the market all designed with SuDS legislation and system longevity in mind . For example , Brett Landscaping ’ s residential permeable paving systems Omega Flow and Alpha Flow offer between 15 and 20 years of minimal maintenance service .
Brett ’ s products provide frost resistance , which address any concerns for long-term block performance .
