Hi all
Just after a bit of advice regarding the use of a membrane under a gravel drive.
Im having my existing drive dug out next week and installing a gravel replacement but was wondering once its dug out, is it best to membrane all the area prior to compacting the type 1 and bedding the edgings or is it not wise to bed the edgings on top of membrane?
We plan to have a band of about 600mm of setts/cobbles/block paving right up to the edgings so the gravel doesn't spill on to the road too much with gravel then in the remaining area up to the house. If the membrane is used between the sub base and the type 1, should another membrane be installed between the compacted type one and the gravel also?
Thanks for looking
Cheers confused Nat
