You're probably all going to hate me for my first post!!

My husband and I are renovating our house to sell (as we are emigrating) and need to improve the driveway. It's currently a very old, cracked and worn out concrete/paving slab mix.

What's the cheapest option on a new driveway, approx 45m2?

Many thanks for your help.

Michelle.

Michelle,
I think you'll find it will be gravel. Don't forget, you'll still need a proper sub base though.
Regards
Gary

If you want to tackle the job yourself this page will tell you how gravel construction .

That's fab Steve - thanks loads!

I am very tempted to tackle it myself (much to my husband's disapproval!!) and I'm even looking into a local women builders course on how to lay driveways. Wish me luck!! :;):
