So, if these external home improvement projects cost considerably more then what is the attraction and why are people choosing them over simpler more cost efficient internal improvements? The main reason for this change is the current economic downturn and the poor state of the housing market in the UK due to the recession, where as a majority of internal projects were undertaken as an aid to selling a house, more expensive external projects are generally undertaken to improve the quality of living for the current homeowners who have decided to stay put and improve rather than more house and upscale.
When doing home improvements or home remodels for one's own benefit the emphasis seems to be on quality and benefits rather than getting a budget job done for the minimum amount of money, so many people are now choosing the most attractive and beneficial options meaning that budget, unskilled, one man band type outfits that advertise in the local press are losing out to the larger better known home improvement groups with an army of estimators, fitters, installers and not to mention satisfied customers. Apart from the always popular and sometimes necessary replacement windows and doors, the second most popular external home improvement project at present seems to be driveways, paths and patios, as there is nothing more satisfying than driving up a beautiful driveway to your home, both for yourself and your visitors who will be equally impressed, but even with this project there are a couple of options depending on your preference. Forget tarmac, it's dated and unattractive and best left for the public roads. You have two other options, one is pattern imprinted concrete and the other is block paving.
Pattern imprinted concrete driveways can be any style and colour you want it to be, within reason, and for a professional driveway company the process is quick and the results are durable and long lasting, imprinted concrete isn't just standard concrete, it is a specially manufactured mix allowing for flexibility and durability, finished with an acrylic sealer . The results are truly impressive, giving you a beautiful, weed free, maintenance free driveway that will last for years. Some people do prefer the more traditional block paving, which when done correctly and by a professional driveway company can still look very beautiful, the benefit of block paving is that unlike pattern imprinted concrete that requires a dry day for laying , block paving can still be laid in adverse weather conditions, the drawback of block paving is that over time you will need to weed between blocks and sometime a block can become loose due to underground movement, a phenomenon that doesn't have an effect on imprinted concrete due it's electric properties and way it is laid to compensate for movement . If your still undecided you should probably have a survey done (most professional driveway companies offer free surveys) to see which option is the best for you.
