Terrazza Driveways

How Terrazza driveways was born .. Many years ago I had a drive laid down in concrete blocks and I was excited at the time and wanted something a little bit different as my expertise is in design. I had a particular pattern in mind which was realised , all the blocks were laid down in the traditional way with the MOT aggregates and compacted, with the usual top layer off kiln dried sand. To my horror after 6 months of driving on and off the drive I noticed there was movement and beyond that the concrete colours were fading away and moss was building up . I decided to have all the blocks removed and relaid with another company and again not only was there movement even after a membrane was laid down moss and plants started growing through the joints. At this point I was really tired of calling different experts and I understood it would never work properly for me. I decided to form a partnership with a very good building contractor as i’m a native italian I love detail and design and I will never settle until I have what I want ! I found an italian quarry that can supply to my design and specifications including on various thicknesses of tile depending on base requirement . I Finally achieved far beyond my expectations , so much so that from the day the drive had been completed I had many locals asking me who carried out the work , I had lights put in the drive and now the natural slate is absolutely beautiful , even when it rains and it’s like walking on a piece of art that been there for 100’s of years , as its so original there are many patterns and different types of natural stone marble or granite to choose from , but one thing you can be certain of Is the drive we will provide you with will not only be an investment , but it will look the same as the day it was laid down for many years to come .
