Why Choose Block Paving?

Block paving is renowned for its flexibility in design and excellent strength. Whether you prefer a simple herringbone pattern or a more decorative finish with borders and contrasting colours, block paving offers a wide range of styles and layout options to suit any property.

Unlike other surfacing materials, block paving can be easily lifted and re-laid if access to underground services is required or in the unlikely event of damage. This makes it a practical long-term investment that adds value and kerb appeal to your property.

What to Expect from Our Block Paving Process

We take pride in delivering block paving driveways that are visually appealing, structurally sound, and long-lasting. Here’s how we approach every installation:

Here’s what you can expect during the installation process:

1.

Assessment & Preparation

We begin by assessing your existing driveway or area to be paved. Our team excavates to the correct depth and installs a high-quality MOT type 1 sub-base, compacted thoroughly to provide the strength required for years of use.

2.

Drainage & Edging

Proper drainage is essential to prevent pooling and surface wear. We ensure your new block paving driveway complies with drainage regulations and install robust edge restraints to lock the paving securely in place.

3.

Laying the Block Paving

Once the sub-base is ready, we apply sharp sand and screed it to a precise level. We then lay the blocks by hand in your chosen pattern, maintaining clean lines and uniform joints for a polished finish.

4.

Compaction & Jointing

After the blocks are laid, we use a vibrating plate compactor to press them into place. Kiln-dried sand is swept into the joints, locking the blocks together and ensuring stability across the whole surface.

5.

Final Inspection & Clean-Up

We finish by inspecting the completed surface, checking for evenness and strong jointing. We clean the area and leave your property with a beautiful new driveway, ready to use straight away.
