Block paving

Kerb appeal that takes the weight

A new block paved drive changes how your whole house looks from the street, and it should still be flat and tight in ten years’ time.

The details

How we do it

We start by taking out the old drive and digging down to firm ground. A deep layer of MOT Type 1 goes in and is compacted in stages, kerbs and edge courses are concreted in, and then the blocks are laid in your chosen pattern. Borders, feature lines and cuts around drains are done by hand, sand is swept into every joint, and the whole drive is plated so nothing moves.

What’s included

  • Removal of the old drive and spoil
  • Compacted MOT Type 1 base
  • Herringbone, bond or basket-weave
  • Contrast borders and inset lines
  • Concreted kerbs and edge courses
  • Drainage where the falls need it

FAQs

Common questions

Something else on your mind? Call or WhatsApp us on 07535 161376.

What pattern should I go for?

For a drive that cars turn on, herringbone is the hardest-wearing. We’ll show you photos of borders and colours on driveways we’ve already laid.

Why do some driveways dip after a few years?

Nearly always a thin or badly compacted base. Ours is built in layers and compacted properly, and it’s covered by our 10-year workmanship warranty.

Can I park on it straight away?

Usually within a day of finishing. We’ll tell you on handover day.
