Gravelling

Gravel is a budget-friendly, attractive and naturally draining surface with a charming crunch underfoot. Watertight Roofing & Driveways lays decorative gravel driveways and paths with proper edging and membrane preparation across Belfast, North Down and Co. Antrim.

Gravel is a timeless, budget-friendly surfacing option that suits everything from cottage paths to sweeping country driveways. It drains naturally, comes in a wide range of decorative colours, and the satisfying crunch underfoot even adds a little security. The key to a gravel surface that stays neat is proper preparation: a firm sub-base, a quality weed-suppressing membrane and secure edging to keep the stone where it belongs. At Watertight Roofing & Driveways, we lay gravel driveways and paths the right way — optionally using gravel grids to stop migration — across Belfast, North Down and Co. Antrim.
