🚀 New Driveway Transformation Underway! 🚀
We’ve officially kicked off groundworks on a fantastic new driveway project, and the team has been hard at work turning a messy problem into a flawless foundation. 🏡💥
❌ The Problem:
The customer’s existing decorative gravel driveway looked nice initially, but it had started sinking and was constantly overspilling onto the public footpath. Not only was it a daily hassle to sweep up, but it was also becoming a real trip hazard.
🏗️ The KDS Solution (The Groundwork):
Preparation is everything when it comes to a long-lasting driveway. To fix the issue properly, we brought in the heavy machinery and called in some excellent local businesses to get the job done right:
Excavation: Utilised a handy 1.5-tonne digger from Aylesbury Plant Hire Ltd to clear out the failing surface.
Clearance: All the old muck and waste was quickly and efficiently cleared off-site by Ben Mason Grab Hire.
The Foundation: Built back up with 7 tonnes of Type 3 MOT (an absolute MUST for resin bound driveways), and a blinding layer of smaller, clean stone delivered by Smiths Aggregates, to ensure a rock-solid, fully stable, and permeable sub-base.
🤝 Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!
The ground is now perfectly prepped and levelled! We are handing the baton over to another local company to complete the final resin bound transformation.
They will be finishing the driveway with a high-quality resin bound base, two layers of structural reinforcement mesh and a stunning, durable resin bound finish.
No more sinking, no more loose stone on the footpath—just a sleek, modern, low-maintenance finish built to last. 💪✨
