Why Choose Harrow Driveways
What Is Natural Stone Paving?
Natural stone paving uses quarried stone slabs such as sandstone, limestone, granite, or slate to create a durable and visually striking surface. Each stone is naturally formed, meaning no two pieces are identical, resulting in a driveway or paved area with natural variation and character.
Natural stone is renowned for its strength, weather resistance, and timeless appeal. When installed correctly on a solid foundation, it provides a robust surface suitable for driveways, patios, pathways, and feature areas.

Our Natural Stone Installation Process
At Harrow Driveways, we follow a meticulous installation process to ensure every natural stone surface is built to last.
1. Site Survey & Design Consultation
We begin by assessing your driveway or paving area, discussing stone options, layout designs, and usage requirements. Our team provides expert advice on the best stone type to suit your property and lifestyle.
2. Ground Preparation & Excavation
The existing surface is removed if necessary, and the ground is excavated to the correct depth. Proper preparation is essential to prevent movement, cracking, or uneven surfaces over time.
3. Sub-Base Construction
A high-quality MOT Type 1 sub-base is installed and compacted in layers to provide exceptional strength and stability. This foundation ensures your natural stone surface can withstand vehicle traffic and weather changes.
4. Laying the Stone
Each stone slab is carefully laid by hand, ensuring precise alignment, correct spacing, and a level finish. Attention to detail during this stage ensures a visually stunning and structurally sound result.
5. Jointing & Finishing
Joints are filled using appropriate materials to secure the stones and prevent weed growth. The surface is then cleaned and inspected to ensure a flawless finish.
