What we do on a front garden driveway conversion
A front garden conversion turns lawn or planting into a parking space: the ground is excavated, a stone sub-base laid, tarmac surfaced on top, and a lowered kerb arranged so a car can cross the pavement legally.
- Check the space: length, width and gate posts for a car
- Highway authority dropped kerb application guided or handled for you
- Sub-base and two tarmac courses, or porous asphalt
- Kerbs or blocks as edge restraint
- Water directed to a border, soakaway or channel
