Why Professional Installation Matters for Driveways

Creating a well-constructed, professional, and uniquely designed driveway or patio is an investment of both time and money, but there is good reason for you to make that investment. It may seem like the less expensive option to lay your driveway or patio yourself, but what you make up for in cost, you lose in time, durability, functionality, and longevity. Let’s explore what the benefits are of using a professional driveway and patio surfacing company to create your dream outdoor space, and how our team here at Premier Surfacing can help.

Increasing Your Curb Appeal with Expertly Laid Driveways and Patios

Investing in a professional surfacing company to create your dream driveway or patio can enhance your property’s curb appeal, functionality, and value. Whether it is tarmac, block paved, or resin bound, whatever material you use won’t make a difference if the expertise and experience of a professional surfacing company aren’t behind the construction.

What are the Benefits of Professional Driveway and Patio Installation?

There are multiple advantages of using a professional driveway and patio company...

High Quality Materials

A professional surfacing company can access a wide range of high quality materials that may not be easily attainable to the public. They’re able to recommend the best products for your outdoor space whether that’s concrete, asphalt, block paving, or natural stone, and ensure its long-term durability and aesthetics.

Expert Workmanship

Professional surfacing companies have the necessary training, skills, and experience to install driveways and patios to the highest standards. They will have received the training to understand the complexities involved in site preparation, material selection, and proper installation techniques, ensuring that your finished result is both appealing and functional.

Professional Techniques

Whether it's ensuring proper drainage, levelling, or grading, professional surfacing specialists will ensure they follow industry-standard techniques to prevent issues such as water pooling, cracking, and other forms of premature wear and tear. They will also ensure that proper ground preparations have taken place such as excavation and a solid foundation, taking into account the soil conditions and the correct base materials and compaction to avoid issues.

Unique and Personalised Designs

As well as practical knowledge and expertise, professional surfacing companies will understand which material will suit the aesthetic of your home and take into account your personal preferences. They will be trained in creating intricate patterns for patios and integrated lighting for driveways, all of which can complement and enhance the look of your property.

Improve Property Value

Increasing the curb appeal of your property with a professionally laid driveway or patio can significantly increase the value of your home. If you’re thinking of selling, then updating your outside space can increase the cost of your home and make it more attractive to potential buyers. Ensuring it is well maintained is also important, as the outside of your property is often a reflection of the inside.

Balance of Time and Cost Efficiency

It may be much more cost-effective to DIY your patio or driveway, but what you make up in cost, you lose in time both due to a lack of experience and also sub-par construction which will result in mistakes and timely and costly repairs in the future. A professional surfacing company will complete the job efficiently, saving you both time and money and reducing the risk of error. They may also be able to source materials at a lower cost than the public can, due to industry connections and wholesale costs.

Ensures Safety

Professional driveway and patio installers will ensure that your surface is even, stable, and free from hazards, and they are well-versed in local building codes and regulations. They will ensure that your project meets all legal requirements, avoiding potential fines or issues with planning permissions.

Professional Support and Warranty

Using a reputable surfacing company ensures that you are protected under warranty should any issues arise, giving you peace of mind that they will be sorted promptly. They also offer aftercare services, such as sealing and maintenance, to help upkeep and prolong the life of your driveway or patio.
