Gravel Driveways in Melksham

Local gravel driveways done properly

A gravel driveway is quick to lay, easy on the budget and drains freely, which makes it a practical choice for many homes and rural properties around Wiltshire. Laid over a membrane, and ideally a stabilising grid, gravel stays where you put it instead of spreading into borders or off the drive.

Whether you are in the centre of Melksham or the surrounding Wiltshire villages, we handle the whole job from the first survey to the finished result, with a clear fixed price agreed in writing.

  • Excavation and a compacted sub-base
  • A weed-suppressing membrane under the stone
  • An optional gravel-stabilising grid to keep the surface firm and level
  • Your choice of decorative aggregate and colour
  • Edgings to contain the gravel

FAQs

Gravel Driveways in Melksham — your questions

Will the gravel spread everywhere?

Not with proper edgings and a stabilising grid. The grid holds the stone in cells so it stays level and firm rather than migrating.

Is a gravel driveway good for drainage?

Yes. Gravel is naturally permeable, so it usually meets SuDS rules and helps rainwater soak away on site.

How much upkeep does it need?

Very little. An occasional rake keeps it level, and a stabilising grid stops the stone migrating.

Can I park heavy vehicles on gravel?

Yes. On a properly built base with a stabilising grid, the surface stays firm under cars and vans.
