Natural look, great value
Natural texture, brilliant value
Gravel is a natural, cost-effective and free-draining finish with a huge choice of stone. Laid correctly on a stabilising base with firm edging, it avoids the migration, weeds and ruts that let a cheap gravel drive down.
We install gravel driveways across Bitterne Park and the surrounding area with proper groundwork, edging and stabilisation, so your driveway stays neat, level and low-maintenance.
Why choose gravel
One of the UK's most popular finishes
Also known as tar-set gravel
Tar & chip
Decorative stone chippings are bonded into a sprayed bitumen base and rolled in, giving you the natural look of gravel with a firm, bound surface that stays put.
It's hard-wearing, well drained and cost-effective over larger areas, making it a popular choice for driveways, farm entrances and rural lanes across Bitterne Park and the surrounding area, without the loose stone of traditional gravel.
Why choose Resurfacing Contractors
A gravel drive is only as good as what's underneath
We lay a firm sub-base with a stabilising grid and solid edging, so the stone stays put and the driveway avoids migration, weeds and ruts.
