Please be aware though, if you\u2019re not a skilled tradesman and you need to remove a previous tarmac driveway covering before starting your X-Grid project, we would recommend you seek professional help.<\/p>\n<p>They removed the tarmac and levelled out the ground before laying a protective sheet and beginning the installation of 130sqm of black X-Grid.<\/p>\n<p>The homeowners had previously chosen gravel as their X-Grid filling as they believed it would provide an aesthetically pleasing finish which fitted in well with the surrounding homes and environment. However, rather than just filling their X-Grids, they decided to do something a little different.<\/p>\n<p>As well as being a practical installation, X-Grid can be decorative too. Rather than filling all of the grids, the homeowners decided to leave a few empty and use our delineators, or parking markers, to create a beautiful pattern on their driveway.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see on the right, the driveway has been completely transformed from its former condition and they\u2019ve created a look that\u2019s completely unique and looks great even though they were on a budget.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Domestic Driveway 130sqm Black &amp; Delineators Before\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-Before-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-364\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Domestic Driveway 130sqm Black &amp; Delineators After\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.matsgrids.co.uk\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/10\/Domestic-Driveway-130sqm-Black-Delineators-After-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transforming a Gravel Driveway using X-Grid which stops Gravel Migration Black X-Grid is permeable and porous, it complies with SUDs regulations and it\u2019ll protect and reinforce the ground while maintaining and encouraging natural drainage systems.
