The Problem: Dated front drive and entrance . . . .

We get many call outs enquiring about the best way to enhance front gardens and driveways.

This particular job is one close to my heart as the client is none other than my beautiful mother..

So I had better get this one right !! or I’m in trouble … LOL

Bearing in mind the above and the fact that a front drive and entrance is the first impression and invitation to anyone’s home, we set to work !!

The Solution

I fully removed old drive, Moved pillars and walls, and introduced a quality gold cobble granite and ballylusk stone entrance mix. I curved the path to give a more inviting and interesting feel and planting minimal specimen shrubbery to make it low maintenance ..

In the back we followed on with the gold / tan granite slabs and raised granite edging .. Keeps it minimalistic and practical, as there was not much garden left after a new back house extension .

A small garden shed feature and a few new trellis to give security ( Which climbers will cover in time )

All in all , Im happy to say , my mother ( a.k.a the “boss” ) was very Happy and we both get to sit out and relax with a glass of red when I’m visiting . 🙂
