RENOVATION
“Our client in Canterbury wanted to replace their ageing driveway with a modern, durable, and visually appealing solution that complemented their home’s character. The existing driveway had deteriorated over time, causing drainage issues and negatively impacting the property’s curb appeal. Gerlack and Thorne was brought on to design and deliver a high-quality replacement.”
“The key challenge was to create a driveway that seamlessly blended with the surrounding environment while also addressing long-standing drainage problems. The property’s sloping terrain required careful planning to ensure the new design provided effective water management without compromising aesthetics.”
“We started by conducting a detailed site assessment to understand the client’s requirements and the environmental conditions. Our design incorporated high-quality materials, including permeable paving stones to ensure durability and proper drainage. The new layout was designed to enhance accessibility and maximise the available space for parking while maintaining a polished finish.”
“The completed driveway offers a perfect balance of functionality and style. Its clean, modern lines elevate the property’s curb appeal, while the upgraded drainage system ensures long-term performance. Our client was delighted with the transformation, noting how the new driveway has significantly improved both the appearance and practicality of their home.”
