Pebble Mix Aggregate Driveways
Pebble mix, a blend of river stones and acrylic resin, offers a durable, non-slip surface suitable for driveways, walkways, patios, and pool surrounds. Exposed aggregate, another popular choice, provides a non-slip surface, aesthetic appeal, and durability, making it ideal for driveways, patios, and walkways. A pebblecrete driveway is particularly popular due to its non-slip surface and aesthetic appeal, with costs varying based on surface slope and additional features.

Installation Process
The installation process of Pebble Mix involves several meticulous steps to ensure a flawless finish. First, the surface must be prepared to ensure it is flat and even. This preparation often includes cleaning the surface with a pressure washer to remove any dirt or debris, ensuring a clean base for the application. Next, the Pebble Mix product is applied to the surface, with the decorative pebbles being carefully embedded into the acrylic resin to create a strong and durable bond. Once the pebbles are set, the surface is sealed to protect it from the elements and enhance its longevity. For large areas such as driveways, it is highly recommended to hire a professional to install Pebble Mix to achieve the best results.
Maintenance and Care
Pebble Mix is renowned for its low-maintenance nature, requiring only occasional cleaning and sealing to keep it looking pristine. To maintain the surface, it is advisable to clean it regularly with a mild detergent and water. For more stubborn dirt or stains, a pressure washer can be used to effectively clean the surface without causing damage. Additionally, resealing the surface every few years is crucial to protect it from the elements and ensure its durability. With proper maintenance and care, Pebble Mix can retain its beauty and functionality for many years, making it a wise investment for any outdoor space.
