Some of the driveway services Abel Landscapes provide include:

Block Paving – which is a Pre-cast concrete, brick sized flexible modular paving system. to Visit our driveway page please .co.uk/" title="Driveways Liverpool">click here

Tarmac driveways - A method of paving in which layers of uniformly graded, coarse aggregate are spread and compacted to a desired grade. Next, the voids are completely filled by a finer aggregate, sometimes assisted by water (water-bound), and sometimes assisted by liquid asphalt (asphalt-bound). The top layers are usually bound and sealed by some specified asphaltic treatment.

Gravel Driveways - Gravel is one type of aggregate often used on Driveways. Not only does it look good it could also help significantly with drainage.

Permeable Driveways - Permeable surfaces include grass guards, decorative gravels and Marshalls Priora permeable block paving. Permeable paving surfaces have been demonstrated as effective in managing runoff water from paved surfaces.

Pressed pavinge Driveways - concrete that is patterned and/or textured or embossed to resemble brick, slate, flagstone, wood and various other patterns and textures. Imprinted concrete is commonly used for patios and, driveways. Abel Landscapes has the ability of supplying stamped concrete to resemble other building materials. This makes imprinted concrete a less expensive alternative to using those other authentic materials such as stone, slate or brick.

Natural Stone Driveways - We install ethically sourced Indian sand stone because the beautiful colours last a life time. One of the wonderful advantages of installing natural stone on a patio, Driveway or path, is that when ever you clean it using a pressure washer, it never looses its colour and it will be as new! Natural stone cobble , sett or paving is a great solution for any driveway.

Cobbles and sett driveways  - Cobblestones are typically either set in sand or similar material, or are bound together with mortar. Paving with cobblestones allows a road to be heavily used all year long. It prevents the buildup of ruts often found in dirt roads. It has the additional beneficial advantage of not getting muddy in wet weather or dusty in dry weather.  The true natural beauty of sandstone setts or granite stone cobbles will enhance any driveway.
