In this video we discuss how you can easily turn a grass area on your property into a drive way using ECODECK ECODRIVE500 gravel driveway grids. We first removed all of the grass, then levelled and installed a quality weed barrier. Once that was completed it was time to lay the ECODECK grids, which was easy enough as they all lock together to form a solid structure, just make sure you buy the driveway version e.g. ECODRIVE500 and install them in the correctly orientation. They grids have little 'cells' which is then filled with 10mm gravel that we purchased from Wickes DIY, the gravel is the tarmac brand and came in bulk bags delivered next day. The 10mm gravel needs to be compacted into the cells and sits just flush with the tops, and from there you will need to use 20mm gravel which adds further weight and stops the smaller 10mm being embedded into tyres and then going onto the pavement. We do also discuss the recommended 10mm and 20mm gravel depths you will need.
This solution provides a solid base, great drainage and is relatively quick to get done although the preparation is important. We have used ECODECK products before for our shed base, there's a video for that on the channel and they are good quality and do the job nicely so were our go to option for this project.
Thanks for watching and if you have any questions etc feel free to ask, cheers!
