DRIVEWAY RESTORATION MANSFIELD

Driveway restoration Mansfield Nottinghamshire

Our latest project involved this fantastic driveway restoration in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire.

This driveway had not been cleaned or sealed for over 14 years, this resulted in the top layer of the imprinted concrete being worn away over time. Due to no protection, the colour had worn leaving bare concrete. We discussed the best options to give the best results and this is what we did.

Initial clean

On our initial visit, we cleaned the whole driveway getting rid of any surface dirt. We then applied a biocide treatment which further kills any biological growth to the root. Biocide can kill growth in cracks pores that a water cannot reach.

Restoration of the driveway

Once the surface was completely dry after the driveway clean, we returned to restore parts of the driveway. We began by rebuilding damaged areas of the drive with a repair compound to restore it to its original state. This gave a much better finish to the look of the driveway rather than leaving them and noticing visible parts that were damaged. We carefully filled in settling cracks that are common but unsightly on concrete driveways, this gave it a perfect finish when re-coloured.

Colour and seal

The next process was to ensure the driveway was re coloured and sealed. Our process included a careful colour match application to the driveway ensuring it was all coated evenly. At this point we also sealed the driveway, using a high quality sealant to protect the surface prolonging the life and quality of the driveway. A high quality sealant can also protect against biological growth that can root into the pores of the driveway, damaging it as it grows. Once everything had time to dry we finished off by filling in the expansion joints with a colour matched silicone to ensure no future weed growth from within.

From start to finish, this driveway restoration took approximately 7 days to complete. This is because its extremely important to allow drying time between procedures. All the work done on this driveway will preserve the life and ensure it is aesthetically pleasing for longer. A driveway restoration like this will cost a fraction of the price of having a new driveway laid.
