How to Prepare Your Property for a Driveway Installation

annasmith81

At Tomlinson’s Landscapes, we’ve seen how proper preparation can make or break a driveway installation project. To help you ensure a smooth process, we’ve outlined key steps homeowners should follow before the installation begins.

1. Clear the Area

The first step is to clear the area where your driveway will be installed. This includes removing any vehicles. During the installation process there may be a number of days where you vehicle cannot be parked on your driveway.

2. Natural Stone Driveways

Natural stone is making a big comeback for 2024, offering timeless elegance and durability. Materials like sandstone, granite, and limestone create a high-end look, perfect for homeowners who want to make a statement. While more expensive than other options, natural stone offers long-lasting beauty.

1. Mixed Materials

Combining different materials is a trend that adds texture and visual interest to driveways. For instance, you could mix block paving with gravel to create unique patterns and borders. This allows for greater creativity and customisation, ensuring your driveway stands out.

2. Smart Driveways

The integration of technology into driveway design is another trend we’re excited about. Smart driveways, with features like heated surfaces to prevent ice buildup in winter or integrated lighting for safety, are becoming more accessible. These high-tech features can add convenience and functionality to your outdoor space.

3. Minimalist Designs

Sleek, minimalist designs are still in high demand, especially for modern homes. Driveways with clean lines, simple colour palettes, and smooth finishes like specific block paving or tarmac are trending. This approach creates a contemporary look that complements a wide range of architectural styles.


At Tomlinson’s Landscapes, we can help you stay ahead of these trends, delivering driveways that are both stylish, functional and practical.
