Porcelain Driveways Maidenhead
The ultimate in driveway curb-appeal
Porcelain driveways are the pinnacle of modern curb appeal, blending Italian-inspired elegance with industrial-grade strength. This is a sleek, no-nonsense driveway finish.
While the initial investment is higher than traditional materials and requires precision engineering, the results are unmatched. We shouldn't be biased as we offer all types of driveways, but porcelain driveways are in a league of their own and are unmatched for that refined finish.
These ultra-thick slabs are virtually indestructible, offering a stain-proof, fade-resistant entrance that remains pristine long after natural stone begins to weather.
The benefits of a porcelain driveway in Maidenhead
Unmatched durability
Each slab combines a 10mm porcelain surface with a robust 50mm concrete backing, designed specifically for vehicular use. Porcelain slabs are incredibly strong and they will comfortably support heavy vehicle weights without cracking, providing a much tougher surface than standard patio tiles.
Stain resistant
Because porcelain has a non-absorbant surface, it will resist oil leaks, tyre marks, algae and moss. This makes it incredibly low maintenance and easy to clean, ensuring your driveway maintains its showroom finish for decades.
Fast installation
Compared to traditional mortar-based methods, the porcelain slabs we use are designed to be laid on fleixble beds. This massively speeds up the installation process minimising any disruption to your daily life. The jointing is done with polymeric sand which ensures a consistent and even finish.
Quality product
The porcelain slabs we use for all our installations are SYMPHONY® Plus from Marshalls. These are without a doubt the finest quality on the market, known for being a premium solution designed specifically for driveways. Contemporary aesthetic whilst being robust.
Frequently asked questions
Can porcelain slabs be used for a driveway?
100% yes! Traditionally porcelain pavers have been used for building patios and general landscaping projects in the garden - something we also offer. But Marshalls have designed a more robust porcelain paver, which combines a 10mm porcelain slab backed by a 50mm concrete base. This makes them perfect for supporting vehicles, offering a robust but sleek finish.
Are porcelain driveways expensive?
Porcelain driveways are a premium finish and are more expensive than other traditional options. Yes, the installation is relatively fuss-free, but it is the end-product you are paying a premium for. The porcelain slabs have been engineered by Marshalls to be used specifically for driveways. This makes them incredibly strong whilst maintaining the sleek contemporary finish which makes them so desirable in the first place.
Are porcelain driveways easy to maintain?
The short answer is yes. And the reason why is because the porcelain slabs have a non-absorbent surface. What this means is that it is immune to things like moss or algae, as well as staining like oil. So no incessant scrubbing required.
