Site Assessment and Custom Design
We began by carefully assessing the site’s unique characteristics to prepare for the
asphalt driveway installation:
- The property featured a gradient that required precise measurement and planning.
- Several established trees needed to be preserved and integrated into the design.
- A limestone brick retaining wall near the shed had to be considered in the layout.
Working closely with Jason and Cheryl, our team developed a curved driveway design that navigated these challenges while maximising space utilisation and visual appeal.
Stage 1: Clearing the Site
We carefully cleared the designated area, removing dead grass and excess sand to create a clean slate for construction.
Stage 2: Base Works
Our team prepared a stable foundation, ensuring proper grading to address the site’s gradient. This step was crucial for water drainage and the longevity of the new asphalt driveway.
Stage 2: Finished base works at the Baldivis residential home
Stage 3: Kerbing
We installed concrete kerbing along the driveway edges. This feature serves multiple purposes:
- Prevents weeds and grass from encroaching on the asphalt surface
- Provides a neat, finished appearance
- Allows for elegant curves around established trees
Stage 3: Kerbing is added to the large residential driveway
Stage 4: Asphalt Installation
Using our premium black asphalt mix, we laid a smooth, durable surface. Our experienced team ensured proper laying and finishing, guaranteeing longevity and optimal performance of the new asphalt driveway.
Plus: Feature Integration
To elevate the overall aesthetic, Jason and Chery incorporated a feature garden bed alongside the driveway. This addition complemented the surrounding landscape, creating a seamless blend between the new asphalt surface, the preserved trees, and the existing greenery.
The final result was a beautiful, curved black asphalt driveway that significantly enhanced the property’s appearance and functionality. Key features of the completed project include:
-
A smooth, durable surface leading from the street to both the main house and the 3-door barn shed
-
Elegant concrete kerbing that provides a clean finish and practical benefits
-
Thoughtful integration with existing landscape elements, including established trees and the limestone retaining wall
-
Effective solution for the site’s gradient, ensuring proper drainage and ease of use
