New Driveway in Wythenshawe, Manchester
A pattern imprinted concrete driveway in Wythenshawe, Manchester built on a slope – not a problem!
Pattern imprinted concrete is a great choice if your driveway is on a slope, even if it is a steep slope! It works because the concrete can be poured in sections allowing each to dry and set individually which prevents run off.
Planet Surfacing recently completed a new pattern imprinted concrete driveway in Wythenshawe, Manchester. The area to be covered was on a steep slope so we lifted some of the back end of the driveway with sleepers to take out some of the steepness. You can see from some of the photographs the sleepers running along parallel to the front of the house. We filled the gap with gravel as well as along the edge of the fence. We also made the steps out of sleepers creating a gradual slope.
For their pattern imprinted concrete driveway in Wythenshawe, Manchester, our clients decided to have it coloured in classic grey and printed in royal ashlar. It was then sealed with a mid-sheen sealant which gives it a lovely shiny finish. An anti-slipping agent is always added to the mixture which is particularly important if it is a sloped driveway because it prevents ice from forming and gives extra traction when walking or driving over it.
We installed an ACO drain along the front of the bottom step just at the front door which provides somewhere for surface water to flow. All driveways must be SUDs compliant and adding a drain ensures this as the concrete is not porous. With our many years of experience installing driveways, we know exactly what is needed to guarantee that your pattern imprinted concrete driveway in Wythenshawe, Manchester, doesn’t just look great but also meets local government requirements.
