Decorative Gravel: A Natural and Sustainable Solution
Decorative gravel is an excellent choice for homeowners looking to create a natural, attractive outdoor space that blends seamlessly with its surroundings.
Naturally permeable, it allows rainwater to drain directly into the ground, helping to reduce surface water and preserve the natural water cycle. It is also an environmentally friendly and cost-effective surfacing solution, requiring very little maintenance over time.
Available in a wide range of colours, stone types, and sizes, decorative gravel can be tailored to suit driveways, pathways, courtyards, parking areas, and landscaped gardens, creating a unique finish that complements your property.
At SC ASPHALTE, we help you choose the decorative gravel that best matches your project, delivering a durable, attractive, and long-lasting outdoor surface.
A Wide Range of Colours and Aggregate Sizes the fields of application
Decorative gravel is available in a wide variety of colours, stone types, and aggregate sizes, allowing you to create an outdoor space that perfectly suits your style and surroundings.
From grey, white, beige, and red to natural blends such as Gave and Madrague, we offer a wide selection of aggregates to give your project a unique and natural finish.
We carefully select the most suitable aggregate size for each application to ensure both comfort and long-term durability. Whether you're creating a driveway, pathway, courtyard, car park, landscaped garden, or adding decorative gravel around trees, plants, and flower beds, we have the right solution for your project.
At SC ASPHALTE, we'll help you choose the decorative gravel that best suits your needs, your property, and your budget.
The advantages of this drainage and aesthetic outdoor flooring
With stabilized gravel laying, no more car wheels sinking into the road when you turn the steering wheel! No more steps in the gravel that require effort! And above all: no more gravel scattered everywhere even in the grass!
Thanks to honeycomb structure plates, your gravel is stabilized and does not move! In addition, the presence of a geotextile prevents the penetration of gravel into the ground.
Stabilized gravel floor: a solution to effectively drain water and maintain a stable driveway
Do you have water stagnating on your path? Are you in a counter-slope of the road and you receive too much water?
There are two application techniques.
- If there is not a strong slope, we will put a finish in crushed gravel of a certain grain size that will allow the least possible movement of this emulsion. This solution is more advantageous in terms of budget. The preparation is the same as for asphalt and emulsion.
- If the slope is important, to allow the grain to be held in place and to have a slightly more stable finish (to avoid the formation of ruts), we will apply honeycomb plates (plates with 5 cm gravel honeycombs), in which we will put the chosen grains. This solution allows you to have a driveway that will not move and drain water over the entire surface.
Advantage of these two finishes: if you need to make trenches to put a sheath, we can "cover and discover" without seeing the difference and without having an impact on the original finish.
