Easiest way to improve my driveway
Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 3.10 PM
Now that I have painted the front of my house the driveway looks even worse than it did. It’s also made up of different coloured stones (flagstone maybe?) of which I think most are a kind of Sandy colour and bricks. What’s the easiest way to improve how it looks without ripping it up and replacing it? Can I use some kind of stain/paint to cover it? I’m not fussed about it being 1 solid colour just as long as it looks better!!!
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Get an industrial jet wash
Maybe some brick acid and give it a good clean
If any of the joints are sand and cement and get chewed out repoint
Should look like new

Get a brick acid or stain remover try a small area first. If your happy do the whole area. You may need to chase the old morter out of the joints and repoint.
