  Paths and Driveways

  • Different materials are available for paths but ensure they’re in keeping with the rest of the house.
  • Think about why you want paths in their particular location and consider how much sun the area gets which may dictate what kind of material you use.
  • Concrete or stone driveways can add greatly to the aesthetics of a home and are very practical. Concrete is more expensive but more durable.
  • Small river stones look great but their smooth edges mean they move, so are impractical for walking or driving on. Think about the size of stones you’re getting and how well they compact down, as well as the aesthetic considerations.
