A permeable driveway offers a sustainable, eco-friendly solution for your home or business. Designed to allow water to flow through the surface, it reduces runoff and helps protect the environment. At Green Side Up Contracting, we specialize in installing durable and effective permeable driveways that not only improve your property’s appearance but also contribute to water management.
What is a Permeable Driveway?
A permeable driveway is a type of driveway that uses permeable pavers or porous materials to allow rainwater to pass through the surface and into the ground beneath. Unlike traditional concrete or asphalt driveways, which contribute to water runoff and puddling, permeable driveways absorb water, reducing strain on drainage systems. The pavers are typically designed with gaps between them, allowing water to filter through the material.
With a wide variety of modern styles and colours available, permeable pavers offer a versatile aesthetic that can enhance your home’s look. This environmentally-conscious feature is a valued upgrade that can boost your property’s market appeal.
By promoting natural water infiltration, these driveways help recharge groundwater levels and reduce the pollution that flows into local waterways, making them a truly sustainable landscaping choice.
Constructed from strong, durable materials, permeable driveways are built to withstand harsh weather and heavy use. Their design is often self-cleaning, requiring less upkeep than traditional paved surfaces.
Many provinces now have stormwater management rules for properties. Installing a permeable driveway can help you meet these local regulations seamlessly, avoiding potential fines.
The system eliminates water pooling and ice formation common with traditional driveways, providing a safer surface and better overall drainage for your landscape.
