Driveway dilemma

[Shane1957]

I have 120m2 of old paving that I am currently getting quotes on to either replace or rejuvente the pavers. So far, the less expensive option is Asphalt, but even that is around $10000. It is also quite stark. Looking for a softer rural finsih that doesnt bring stones or stain into the house. Would like to investigate sparying concrete onto the old pavers but njot sure how effective and long lasting that would be. Thank you

Good Evening @Shane1957

I would like to say "Howdy" and  welcome to the Bunnings community Also I actually like the look of your driveway as it is

Have you considerd pressure washing the pavers? They seem to be in decent condition and I mean still level and holding their form. (This is my number one suggestion btw )

Have you lifted a paver or two to check what is under them? For a driveway of pavers not to sag or dip with time I am thinking that they probarly have been laid decently. Maybe even on a concrete base?

Spraying concrete over them would potentially crack with any movement of the pavers underneath later on. Maybe replace with larger square pavers to give it a modern but still keep that rural look? Or a mixture of both types of pavers? Would cost less but depending on how you do it could still work. Its one reason why I love pavers so much. You can keep reusing them

I will tag some other community members for their ideas @DIYGnome , @TedBear , @Jewelleryrescue and @Nailbag
