With a wide choice of driveway styles and materials available, what is the right choice of driveway for your property?

Resin Bound Driveway

At Diamond Services we are finding that a resin bound drive is becoming more and more popular thanks to its flexibility and durability.

A resin bound driveway is created by combining an aggregate of your choice and a clear resin. When the drive is layed it leaves tiny gaps between the small stones to allow water to drain through. This means no puddles and no breeding grounds for moss and other nasty things that make your drive slippery or look not its best.

The aggregate used in resin bound drives comes in an enormous range of colours, textures and sizes. The pebbles range from 1mm to 5mm to give you the look you want.

Block Paving Driveway

If you want your driveway to make a good first impression then look no further than block paving.

You will have a driveway that is highly practical yet is the perfect driveway idea for those looking for something more bespoke.

Available in a wide range of modern, classic and contemporary shades, colours and finishes, a block paving drive creates perfect kerb appeal for any home.

Block paving also allows for additional features such as walling, edging and shapes such as circles so you can get creative in your choices.

And best of all, should any of the blocks become damaged, it is very simple to lift out one broken block and replace it.

Clay Paving Driveway

If there is one reason why you should choose clay pavers it is because they have stood the test of time.

Look at any Victorian path along canals or railways and you will see the original clay pavers still looking amazing to this day.

Things have changed and clay pavers have got even better. With a wide range of colours, finishes and patterns you can create your own look that will also look great for many years to come.

A clay paved driveway is also less prone to fading. The colour will always be rich and, we think, gets even better over time.
