PROJECT BRIEF:

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

PROVIDE A LEVELLED DRIVEWAY THAT WAS POTHOLE AND WATERLOG FREE.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]On this project our clients were a group of eight families who are all residents living on National Trust Land in Maidenhead, Berkshire. The trust had insisted on a new gravel road as the existing gravel was waterlogged and filled with pot holes due to its close proximity to a now redundant pond. The residents were unhappy that the road was a nuisance to drive on as the pot holes were rapidly increasing due to the frequent care use and weekly refuge collection.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1454774350644{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1454774485502{margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1454775624078{margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”]

PRACTICAL SOLUTION:

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

INSTALL DRIVEWAY USING CORE DRIVE 50-35 HDR.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]To resolve our clients frustration, we provided a levelled driveway that was pot hole and water log free.To fix the pot hole problem, Core Landscape Products repaired and regraded the patch using MOT type 1 subbase material and then levelled the road using a thin blinding of sharp sand. Using our specialist landscaping products, we then laid and filled CORE DRIVE 50-35HDR stabilizer grids with an angular 10/14mm golden flint gravel leaving a levelled surface. Although this does not constitute a truly SuDS compliant subbase there was adequate run off into adjacent vegetation for the system to drain.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1454774350644{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1454774485502{margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][vc_separator][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1454775798141{margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”]

ADVANTAGES:

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

“This product gave us exactly what we were looking for… a firm, free draining access road with no pot holes” (Residents Committee)

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Using a gravel stabilisation grid meant the existing surface could be utilized as part of the sub base. This significantly reduced costs and had a positive impact on the environment. We made sure the stabilisation grid wasn’t visible, keeping within the Nationals Trusts requests. The surface is now flat, firm and pot hole free.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][ult_buttons btn_title=”BACK TO CASE STUDIES” btn_link=”url:%2Fcase-study%2F||” btn_title_color=”#ffffff” btn_bg_color=”#000000″ btn_bg_color_hover=”#f08021″ btn_title_color_hover=”#ffffff” icon_size=”32″ btn_icon_pos=”ubtn-sep-icon-at-left”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
