Plain Driveway to Exposed Aggregate

Exposed aggregate transforms a flat grey driveway into a surface with genuine visual depth - the pebbles catch light differently across the day, and the texture reads as premium from the street. This transformation is achieved by removing the surface paste during cure to reveal the aggregate beneath, or by applying an aggregate seeding overlay to an existing slab. Typical cost runs $6–12 per sq ft, depending on aggregate type and driveway size. Charcoal aggregate is the top-performing finish for contemporary and transitional homes - it holds colour well and the dark tone masks tyre marks and dirt between cleans.
