Your driveway will need to withstand whatever mother nature throws at it. Maintenance will likely be necessary for any stone choice you make, for you to seal the stone to ensure that moisture does not get in and ruin the stone.
Some stones will handle harsh weather better than others, but all will require some TLC and professional care from time to time. Whether it is policing, honing, or cleaning by the pros, upkeep and proper cleaning is a must. If, on your own, you use the wrong cleaning product to clean your driveway stone, the stone could react negatively and end up being damaged.
Setting up regular professional maintenance for your stone will be rewarding as it will ensure that the beauty and durability lasts for ages.
In between professional maintenance, you will need to take care of the driveway stone at home. After all, it’s outside and exposed to the elements.
It is always recommended that you use a natural cleaning product on the stone because harsh chemicals can sometimes badly damage the integrity of the stone. Sometimes, just soap and water will do the trick.
Keeping excessive dirt off of the driveway is also a good idea to protect the grout and those stones that are more porous or have many divots and craters. Most natural stones are durable for the most part, and if you keep up with the upkeep and maintenance, you will enjoy your stone driveway for years to come.
