Our Gravel Driveway Installation Process in Bilston

    At A&J Driveways, we follow a tried-and-tested installation process to ensure your new gravel driveway in Bilston is built to last. Every driveway starts with a thorough site survey, where we measure up, assess ground conditions, and agree on the best gravel type and edging style for your home.
    From there, we handle all excavation and waste removal before laying a specialist membrane to prevent weed growth. We then install a strong MOT Type 1 sub-base, which is compacted to support the driveway’s structure.

     Next comes your gravel layer—carefully spread and levelled to your desired depth. Finished off with clean edges and tidy borders, your gravel driveway will not only be functional but also beautifully finished, ready to withstand everyday use. All work is completed by our in-house team, ensuring consistent quality from start to finish.

Benefits of a Gravel Driveway in Bilston

A gravel driveway is the perfect way to add character and practicality to your Bilston property without breaking the bank. Thanks to its natural drainage properties, gravel is ideal for homes in the West Midlands, where heavy rain is common. Not only does it offer low maintenance and excellent durability, but it’s also incredibly customisable – choose from a variety of gravel sizes, colours, and edging styles to tailor your driveway to match your home. What’s more, gravel driveways are often quicker and more cost-effective to install than other hard surfaces, making them a popular choice for both homeowners and landlords in the Bilston area.
