When it comes to transforming the exterior of your home, few things make as big an impact as a professionally installed driveway, At Buildadrive, we believe your driveway should be more than just functional, it should be stylish, durable, and tailored to your lifestyle and budget. That’s why we offer five distinctive surface options, each with its own unique set of benefits, price points and aesthetic appeal.

Resin Bound Driveways

Have surged in popularity and for a good reason. Made with a mix of natural stone and clear resin, this surface creates a smooth, seamless, and highly attractive finish. It’s also permeable, allowing water to drain through and helping to prevent puddles.

Ideal for modern homes and available in a wide range of colour options, from natural stone tones to bolder, more contemporary hues. They’re also weed resistant, UV stable, and low maintenance, making them a long-term favourite with homeowners across Leeds and Huddersfield.

While the initial cost can be higher than gravel and tarmac, the low upkeep and visual impact make it a cost-effective choice in the long run.

Block Paved Driveways

Block paving is a classic choice and offers excellent versatility in design. With a vast range of colours, patterns, and styles to choose from, block paving is perfect for those who want a driveway that complements the character of their property.

Durable and easy to repair, this surface is great for families and high traffic areas. Whether you live in Bradford or Wakefield, block paving offers a smart, bespoke look that adds instant kerb appeal.

It sits comfortably in the mid-range pricing tier, balancing style, durability, and long-term value.

Tarmac Driveways

A practical, long-standing favourite and for good reason. It’s cost effective, quick to install, and built to last. Ideal for larger driveways or households needing a durable surface the higher price tag, tarmac offers excellent value for money.

Although it’s usually black in appearance, decorative borders can be added to enhance its visual appeal, this can include block edging or Indian Flagstone.

Tarmac is particularly popular in areas like Halifax where durability is essential, especially in high use households or where vehicles are parked long-term.

Gravel Driveways

Gravel is the ultimate budget conscious option, but that doesn’t mean it lacks in style. In fact, with the right colour and stone size, gravel driveways can bring a charming, countryside feel to any home.

They’re also quick to install and naturally permeable, which helps with drainage. Plus, that satisfying crunch underfoot offers added security, as it’s hard to approach unnoticed.

Available in a variety of stone types and colours, gravel driveways are popular with homeowners in rural and suburban areas of West Yorkshire, from Halifax to Wakefield. Just to keep in mind they may need a little more upkeep to maintain a tidy appearance.

Indian Flagstone Driveways

For a truly premium look, Indian sandstone is hard to beat. Known for its natural beauty and rich colours, this stone creates a standout finish that can elevate any home exterior.

Indian Flagstone is ideal for those wanting a luxurious, timeless look, each slab unique with the surface only improving with age. It’s particularly well suited to older or period style homes in historic areas of West Yorkshire.

Providing aesthetic value and long-term durability makes Indian flagstone makes it a worthy investment for those looking to create a show stopping entrance.
