Aesthetics: Customisation and Style Options
The appearance of your driveway plays a significant role in your decision. Both block paving and tarmac offer distinct visual benefits, but your choice depends on whether you prioritise flexibility in design or a sleek, uniform appearance.
Tarmac Driveways
Tarmac has a smooth, modern finish that works well with a variety of property styles. Its clean, understated look is perfect if you're aiming for a minimalist aesthetic. However, tarmac is usually limited to black or dark grey colours, which means fewer customisation options compared to other materials. Still, for homeowners who prefer a no-fuss, professional appearance, tarmac is an ideal choice.
Block Paving Driveways
Block paving shines when it comes to versatility and customisation. With a wide range of colours, shapes, and sizes available, block paving allows you to create bespoke patterns and designs tailored to your tastes. Whether you prefer a contemporary or traditional look, block paving offers plenty of options to match your home’s exterior. Furthermore, it can be easily combined with other materials, like gravel or resin, to create eye-catching borders or intricate layouts.
Maintenance: Keeping Your Driveway Looking Its Best
Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your driveway remains in top condition. The amount of maintenance required varies between tarmac and block paving, so it's important to consider how much time and effort you're willing to invest.
Tarmac Driveways
One of tarmac’s key advantages is its low maintenance. It is highly durable and can withstand harsh weather conditions, which makes it an ideal choice for areas prone to heavy rain or snow. Occasionally, tarmac driveways may develop cracks or potholes, but these are relatively easy and inexpensive to repair. Resurfacing every few years helps maintain its fresh appearance, though this is not always required.
Block Paving Driveways
Block paving requires more attention than tarmac, but with proper care, it can look beautiful for many years. Block paving may experience w**d growth between the joints, so regular cleaning and occasional re-sanding will keep it in optimal condition. However, the individual blocks can be easily replaced if damaged, without having to redo the entire driveway. This makes block paving a convenient long-term option for homeowners willing to invest a bit more time in upkeep.
