What is the best gravel for a driveway?

Angular gravel in the 10mm to 20mm range is usually best for driveways because the stones lock together and do not roll underfoot or under tyres. 14mm and 20mm are popular choices. Rounded pea shingle looks attractive but moves around much more, so it is better suited to paths and borders unless it is laid in grids.

Checklist before booking in Nottingham

  • Ask each installer how deep they will dig and what sub-base depth they will lay
  • Confirm the gravel type, size and finished depth in writing
  • Agree the edging material and where the drive meets the pavement
  • Make sure waste removal is included and ask how it will be disposed of
  • Check access for machinery, skips and grab lorries, and where materials will be delivered
