The colour and blend you choose sets the whole tone of your driveway. Here’s how to pick one that suits your home and stands the test of time.
Popular colour families
- Natural golds & ambers — warm, classic, brilliant with stone and red-brick homes
- Greys & silvers — contemporary and clean, ideal for modern properties
- Browns & autumn blends — earthy and forgiving of everyday dirt
- Blends with flecks — mixed aggregates add depth and hide marks well
Matching your home
As a rule, pick up a tone from your brick, stone or render. Lighter blends brighten a frontage; darker blends feel smart and hide tyre marks. We bring samples to your free survey so you can see them against your own walls.
UV stability matters
We only use UV-stable resin, so your colour resists fading. Cheaper non-UV resins can yellow over time — worth checking whoever you use.
Aggregate size
Most driveways use a 1–3mm blend for a smooth, comfortable finish. Larger aggregates suit some looks — more in choosing an aggregate.
