Driveway Materials
Sometimes you don’t have a choice when it comes to choosing your driveway materials. Depending on where you live, poured concrete may be the most common type of driveway. In addition to our recommendation to use pavers as accents in a concrete driveway, you could also consider additional options:
- Asphalt
- Brick
- Flagstone
- Pea Gravel
What kind of look are you going for? What driveway material complements your home’s architecture and the overall landscaping you have in mind? Be sure to consult with a contractor and/or landscaper to help you decide what choice to make. Whether you use the suggested materials to completely replace your driveway or simply add to it, we can ensure you have access to the products you need.
When you think of cultivating a garden, what are some of the first things that come to mind? You probably envision leafy, green plants, colorful flowers, manicured shrubbery, trees and the like. But what about landscaping that doesn’t require a lot of maintenance? Garden rocks make a great addition to any garden, especially if you’re looking for drought-tolerant landscaping ideas.
