If you’re ready to protect and elevate your driveway, you’ve come to the right place. We've been treating driveways for longer than we can remember!
Sealing your driveway creates a smooth, protective barrier that inhibits the growth of weeds and algae. This not only keeps your surface looking clean but also prevents damage caused by root systems over time.
A treated driveway requires less frequent upkeep. By preventing cracks and surface deterioration, sealing minimises the need for costly repairs, allowing you to enjoy your driveway without constant worry or unnecessary maintenance.
Sealing enhances your driveway’s water resistance, preventing moisture penetration that can lead to cracks and erosion. This barrier helps maintain the integrity of your surface, ensuring it remains strong through all weather conditions.
Sealed driveways are better equipped to resist oil spills and stains. The protective layer prevents oil from soaking in, making clean-up easier and keeping your driveway looking pristine for years to come.
A sealed or treated driveway is one that has been coated with a protective sealant to enhance its durability and appearance. This process involves applying a specialised product that guards against weather damage, stains, and wear, ultimately extending the driveway's lifespan and maintaining its aesthetic appeal.
The average cost to seal or treat a driveway typically ranges from £10 to £25 per square meter, depending on the type of surface and condition. For a standard two-car driveway, this can total between £150 and £500. Additional factors, like preparation and sealant quality, may affect the final price, so we would always recommend a site visit before quoting.
After sealing a driveway, it's generally recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours before driving on it. This allows the sealant to cure properly and form a strong protective layer. Weather conditions and the type of sealant used can also affect the drying time.
