Borehamwood
Sandstone driveway, Borehamwood
Tarmac taken up in Borehamwood and replaced with sandstone slabs, a block edge and pointed joints.
The brief was a frontage that added something to the house, and an end to the old tarmac. Sandstone paving was the surface chosen.
Excavation came first. Hardcore was laid and compacted, a block edge set the outline, the sandstone slabs went down, and the joints were pointed.
On a drive the base decides whether the slabs are still level after the first winter. The visible paving is the last layer, not the first.
Service: Hard landscaping. Town: Borehamwood.
