Striking contemporary driveway makeover in St. Albans with Grantex products

Project Overview

TP Group joined forces with Slatter Estates Surfaces to create a visually stunning and durable driveway for a contemporary property in St. Albans using high-quality Grantex specialist aggregates. This project required precision, high-quality materials, and expert installation to enhance the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the outdoor space.

Project Specifications

  • Location: St. Albans, UK
  • Border Installation: 90 linear metres of Kinley’s formable ResinEdge, designed to provide a clear and structured edge to the driveway. The border was 300mm wide, ensuring a distinct and polished finish.
  • Resin Bound Gravel Selection for the border: A bespoke ‘Light Lunar’ blend was applied within the bordered area, offering a unique and elegant appearance.
  • Main Driveway Surface: The remaining 430m² area was surfaced using a mix of Grantex Sterling Silver 2-5mm and Silver Blue Granite 1-3mm, chosen for their durability and contemporary aesthetic.
  • Materials Used: The project incorporated Ronacrete’s high-quality resin, ensuring long-term performance. The aggregates were supplied by Grantex Specialist Aggregates, known for its premium-quality dried aggregates.

Conclusion: The combination of Kinley’s ResinEdge, alongside custom resin-bound aggregate blends which perfectly complement the Grantex Sterling Silver and Silver Blue mix, and high-performance resin resulted in a driveway that not only suited the architecture of the property but also delivered on durability and low maintenance. The defined border and striking colour contrast created a sophisticated look, enhancing the overall curb appeal.

TP Group is proud to have been part of this project, working alongside Slatter Estates Surfaces to achieve a high-end, resilient and aesthetically pleasing driveway solution. This successful collaboration highlights the value of using premium materials and expert craftsmanship in transforming outdoor spaces.
