- This video shows the construction and build-up of a gravel driveway using X-Grid gravel drive grids. It shows how to install the gravel driveway product through a time-lapse of a real gravel driveway installation.
Due to the SUDS regulation introduced in the UK in 2015 which dictates the permeability of surfacing to help combat the effects of urbanisation and reduce the risk of urban flooding, many people are deciding to choose a permeable gravel driveway construction, as opposed to a traditional concrete or tarmac construction.
By using the highly engineered and specially designed X-Grid, you can create a strong, long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing driveway which can be customised to your exact specification. With such a huge range of different colours of gravel and aggregate available in the UK, there's sure to be one which suits the look of your home and garden.
Manufactured by GCL Products in the United Kingdom using 100% UK recycled plastic, X-Grid is capable of withstanding loads of up to 60 tonnes per axle, while only weighing just over 5kgs per m². This makes X-Grid ground reinforcement and gravel retention grids possibly the strongest product of its type anywhere in the world!
Having sold over 3,000,000 units worldwide, X-Grid is certainly one of the most popular gravel grids around. You can join the thousands of satisfied and proud owners of gravel driveways by purchasing your X-Grid gravel driveway grid from www.matsgrids.co.uk/59-gravel... - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Perfect! After watching this, I decided not to touch my garden and leave it as it is for another year.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's been 2 years now. Have you still left it for another year? 😂
im thinking the same lol
@@arniet1absolutely, another year. 😅
If you watch this in reverse, they get a new block driveway!
Totally! Was really looking forward to seeing the finished result and the video just cut out. Take it down!
That's a lot of work. Looks good mind.
You guys did a fab job, you know your trade, down side i would never be able to afford you..... shame, but its nice to see real workers.
Dude started off with a perfectly fine driveway
X-Grid might be a great product and all for gravel substrates, but the owner of that brick patio only needed to pressure wash the shit out of it, and maybe redo the trim to give it a cleaner nicer border. It would have been a lot cheaper, a lot easier, and they could take the time to pressure wash the side of the house too.
Yeah I can't see the sense in taking that up. Brick is more expensive but requires maintenance, in my experience maintaining a gravel driveway is a massive PITA compared to brick.
@@polla2256 May have just wanted change!
I was hoping to see grass growing through but just saw layers and layers of extra layers …….
Never really saw it finished did we..pointless almost
Nice job.
What type of sub base do you recommend?
Ok to the idiots who say the brickwork was better did you miss that there was a raised bed and probably wanted space for two cars, jeeze I hope you're not in the trade.. Well done Matts grids really good job
Wow, how many layers...looks like the proper way to do a gravel drive though
As a few years have passed,was the ground stabiliser mesh worth it? as i am doing my drive which is a large area
Hi there For 33 Square meter which way will work cheaper concrete or the way showing above ?
Thanks in advance .
Concrete is better I guess but you may have done yours by now? Our landscaper wants to use these and I wanted channels lol
Stupid question could you not lay the gravel on the blocks? Better weed protection
Wow looks like it costed alot with all the materials you used lol you could get block paving for same price
How much do you think it cost or how much would block paving cost?
It’s cheaper to gravel but not if you do it that way 😂 that is completely over the top , i levelled mine with a rake , laid the hardcore , whacker plated it then breathable driveway membrane then gravel grid then gravel and it’s perfect 2years later and that’s with work vans on and off it all day , it cost me 2 grand for a area simalar to that on the video , if you do it that way it will probably be 6 grand
@@adamjohnston5250 What's yours like now. I'm looking to do mine. Getting quotes in but everyone who comes says I need tarmac. But I prefer the look of gravel.
It’s still good now mate had no trouble with it at all
Don’t do it the way they do on the video it’s a ridiculous waste of materials and pointless
Watched the video, but then didn't bother to show us the finished job??Strange🤔
Ughhhh, I know!
Looked better before 😬
That is the most ridiculous, over-the-top and unnecessary thing I have seen for a driveway. Mark up!
The original looked better, just needed a power wash and not neglected?
Why on earth would anyone replace perfectly good brick with gravel? The cost of materials, labour and disposal of the existing probably cost at least 20 x the price of a decent pressure washer. What a waste of time, money........ And a lovely brick driveway.
Did you miss the bit that its almost doubled in size?
@@alexlifeson2364 environmental reason as water go to the ground. In some countries like Belgium, there is a maximum surface allowed from bricks/asphalt/swimming pool... The grid gravel is one of the solutions to meet regulations
So, it was so ugly you didn't want to show the finished product?
Unwatchable due to music
Lol, no after shots 🤡
