tHIS JOB WAS COMPLETED IN 2014 IN WHITLEY BAY. AS WITH ALL PATTERN CONCRETE DRIVES IT WAS WORN AND LOOSING COLOUR

STEPS AND BORDERS CAN BE INDIVIDUALLY COLOURED ID BLACK BORDER SURROUNDING A GREY DRIVE

A CHARCOAL DRIVE IN WHITLEY BAY FROM 2014 STILL LOOKING GOOD TODAY . ALL RECOVERED DRIVEWAYS RECIEVE TWO GOOD COATS OF COVERING AND ARE TREATED WITH ANTI SLIP FOR SAFETY IN WET WEATHER . AND WHEREVER YOU PARK YOUR CAR/S I GIVE A THIRD COAT TO ENSURE EVEN WEAR OVER THE YEARS

USING CHEAP SEALANTS OR EMPLOYING SOMEONE USING THEM CAN HAVE DISASTOUROUS RESULTS , THE JOB LOOKS GREAT AT FIRST BUT AFTER A FEW MONTHS THEY WEAR OFF AND CAN HAVE THIS EFFECT FOR WHICH THERE IS NO CURE ,

THIS DRIVE LOST ALL OF ITS COULOR WITHIN EIGHTEEN MONTHS OF BEING LAID . THIS WAS DONE IN 2014 AND IS STILL LOOKING GOOD TODAY

a slate grey pattern concrete that was looking very worn . before recoating

May2017 The same pattern concrete after recoating. all the edges and expansion joints were filled with acrylic to make sure no future weed growth could occur.

THIS DECKING AND SURROUNDING FENCE WORK IS FROM A CUSTOMER IN SOUTH SHIELDS , THE DECKING WAS BEGINNING TO TURN GREEN AND WAS IN SERIOUS NEED OF CLEANING AND RECOATING . THIS IS HOW IT LOOKED AFTER WE LEFT IT

THIS DECKING IN SOUTH SHIELDS WAS IN A POOR CONDITION AND THIS IS HOW IT LOOKED AFTER CLEANING AND RECOATING

WE CLEAN ALL THE TOPS AND REMOVE SAND WITHOUT TAKING TO MUCH SAND OUT (WHICH CAN MAKE THE BRICK FOUNDATION UNSTABLE)

All efforts are made to make sure your drive remains clean and free from weeds and future algae growth and discouloring .

When sealing a drive or patio, I always use the very best in acrylic sealant as opposed to . This is far more hard wearing and longlasting , seals the sand in like cement preventing future weed growth and gives an attractive finished look . after care advice and products are also available.

SOMETIMES ITS GOOD TO DARKEN THE SHADE OF DECKING THATS AGEING .

Don’t upset Drive Pride

1

Drivepride arrived over 1 1/4 hours late and said he found getting up on Saturday mornings difficult! His vehicle looked and sounded in great need of repair I told him I did not wish him to carry out the work as he showed little respect for my time or his car and made me doubt his efforts to respect my property. He immediately turned into a rage swearing and calling me names. He got back into his vehicle and drove at speed to turn round stopping again at my door to shout more abuse using hand gestures to emphasise his rage making threats to return to damage my property. I asked if I could publish his abuse to me as a customer and he agreed I could, using more profanity. Here is my review. He may have done a good job but certainly needs to work on his time-keeping, attitude and rage issues. Be cautious.
