An Interlocking Driveway Can Enhance the Beauty and Curb Appeal of Your Home
Most residential driveways are subjected to a significant amount of wear-and-tear on a daily basis; in addition to bearing the weight of parked or in-motion vehicles, a driveway must be able to endure potential mistreatment, so to speak, from various pieces of equipment, toys, chemicals, and many other types of assaults. As a result, it is not uncommon to see paving company vehicles on any given residential street from spring to fall, there to replace and/or seal existing driveways.

In the majority of cases, driveways are constructed of poured asphalt; it is a rather durable material and it does the job in terms of its main or intended purpose. But there is degree of ordinariness to its appearance, essentially a solid sheet of black or gray or light gray based on when it was installed and how recently it received a coat of sealer. Similarly, a concrete driveway (poured or stamped) is certainly firm and strong, but it also has the appearance of a solid, one-colour block and has the added disadvantages of cracking, chipping, or pitting.

These are some of the reasons why homeowners might want to consider converting from an asphalt or concrete surface to an interlocking driveway using one of the following materials:

In addition to the element of durability, an interlocking driveway provides the opportunity to be creative in terms of its design and colour, thereby enhancing the beauty and curb appeal of the home and its property. And much like interior home décor, an interlocking driveway offers the option of accessorizing, by using complimentary colours and/or structures such as columns, pillars, and borders, to further catch one’s eye as they walk or drive by the home.

To achieve and retain this look and functionality over time, an interlocking driveway has to be properly installed; and this is where homeowners can benefit from the skills offered by the specialists from Complete Interlocking.

Complete Interlocking ensures that all interlocking driveways are excavated to an appropriate depth and have the proper foundation to avoid any subsequent shifting or sinking of the surface material; this sub-structure will also be graded accordingly to allow adequate water drainage/run-off. Furthermore, before any excavation takes place, the team from First Choice Interlocking & Restoration will confirm the locations of all underground services to prevent potential disruptions or inconveniences for the property owner or their immediate neighbours.

Throughout the installation process, Complete Interlocking crews will pay keen attention to detail with respect to placement of the edge restraints and chosen interlocking material as well as the applications of the joint sand between the pieces and the topcoat sealer.

And to allow quick and easy clean-up upon the completion of any/all driveway installations, Complete Interlocking will have a dump bin or trailer on the job site for immediate disposal of the existing driveway material and surplus earth.

Restoring the Look and Stability of Existing Interlocking Driveways and Walkways
A newly-installed interlocking driveway or walkway can certainly add a degree of prestige to any property. Unfortunately, incidents may occur over time that can detract from that aura and affect the stability of the overall construction, perhaps due to poor initial installation or the lack of maintenance by a previous property owner; the most common of such situations would include:

Should these types of conditions arise with their existing interlocking driveway or walkway, and the homeowner does not feel comfortable in attempting to remedy or rectify the matter on their own, placing a call to Complete Interlocking at (647) 768-3493 could be the ideal solution.
