Hi, I need some help with our driveway. We bought our first house a few months ago and currently we have a concrete section for parking on, and a concrete pathway up to the door. There is gravel in between but the plastic underneath is very ripped and the entire gravel area is covered with weeds that have come through.
I was originally hoping for a paved driveway but apparently it's very expensive! So I'm considering something like the picture instead, gravel with a slab pathway. We don't have a car at the moment but are looking to get one in the next couple of years, so I'm interested to know how gravel driveways are for parking on.
If it does seem like a good idea, how we would go about getting rid of what we have currently and creating something like this, and how much this would it be likely to cost, either to get the materials and do it ourselves if it's not going to be too difficult, or get someone to do it for us if it's more complicated than that.
Sorry, I know I sound very naive, I've never really done anything like this before!
