  • How to Lay a Driveway

Step 1 : Site Preparation

Depending on the size of the area, using the shovel or mini-excavator dig out to the advised level (this will depend on your existing surfaces, Brett Landscaping will be able to advise as to the appropriate depth). Remove all waste materials from the site using a skip.

 

When using excavation machinery please follow all manufacturers' guidelines including acceptable levels of exposure and in particular use ear protection.
