A brick driveway can add character and curb appeal to any brick home. Brick is much more aesthetic than asphalt and very easy to work with when creating customized designs. Because the majority of homes are built of brick, a driveway made from the same material with instantly make the property stand out as preeminent on the block.
It also helps link the landscape around your home to your house itself by using the same type of material your home is built form as a material for hardscape design.
Brick does not make a perfectly smooth surface in terms of a comfortable ride, but it is smooth enough to be safe for tires. The irregular surface of the drive actually creates traction which adds safety value to your driveway during stormy times of the year. Building a small masonry wall on either side of the driveway can further enhance its safety factor and add decorative vertical impact to its surface.
