Gravel is usually the most affordable type of driveway, costing £2747 on average in Warrenpoint / Burren. Gravel driveways are quick to lay and offers good drainage but needs regular raking and topping up.

That depends on your budget and style. Resin looks smart and is low maintenance. Tarmac is durable and cost-effective. Block paving is great for repairs. Concrete lasts well but can crack over time.

They cost more upfront and need a solid base underneath. Poor installation can lead to cracks or weeds.

Yes. It’s quick to lay, tough and weather resistant. But it can soften in extreme heat and isn’t as decorative as other surfaces.

Yes; once or twice a year. It lifts dirt and moss. But avoid high pressure near the joints to keep the sand in place.

Concrete tends to be cheaper upfront. But slabs offer more design flexibility and are easier to repair.

Yes; gently. Use a wide fan setting to avoid damage.

It varies. A small patio with budget slabs will cost considerably less than a premium stone patio, for example. Use our Job Value Estimator tool to help estimate costs for your patio project.

Usually not, unless your driveway is non-permeable and larger than 5m². Always check with your local council for rules in your area.

In Warrenpoint / Burren, a concrete driveway typically costs around £4335 on average, with exact costs depending on size, access and finish.

Technically, yes, but it’s rarely a good idea. Tarmac needs specialist tools and must be laid hot and fast for a proper finish. A DIY job often doesn’t last and can end up costing more to fix later.

Tarmac is tough and budget-friendly, but it can soften in heat, fade over time, and doesn’t offer much in the way of design. It also needs edging to stop it crumbling at the sides.

Start with a pressure wash (avoid blasting the joints), pull out weeds, and re-sand the gaps. Adding sealant can boost colour and protect the surface. Many tradespeople offer a clean-and-restore service if you’d rather not do it yourself.

When you need a job doing, especially for something larger like new paving or patio, you want to know you can rely on the tradesperson carrying out the work.
