Ocean Pearl & Fossil Resin Transformation with Tobermore Shannon Duo Borders & Custom No. 7
Project Overview
If you want laser-straight lines, you call SP Design & Pave! This driveway was well past its sell-by date and badly in need of a complete refurbishment. Working closely with homeowner Pat Richards, Scott and the lads took the front of the home to the next level with precision ground engineering and an exceptional bespoke combination of materials. The customer selected Tobermore Shannon Duo block paving for the outer borders to create crisp, defined perimeter lines. For the inner framing, the team laid an exquisite Fossil blend resin-bound border, contrasting beautifully with the main infill of Daltex Ocean Pearl blend. To add a bespoke personal touch, the team hand-cut and laid a custom resin house number "7" directly into the driveway field. Scott and the team worked tirelessly, kept the client informed at every stage, and left the site immaculate every single evening—earning a glowing 10/10 review from the delighted homeowner.
