About Our Block Paving Work

Block paving remains the most popular driveway surface in London and Surrey for good reason: it is exceptionally hard-wearing, individual blocks can be lifted and replaced, and the choice of colours, sizes and laying patterns means no two driveways need look alike.

We lay every driveway on a fully excavated, compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base with concrete-haunched edge restraints — the parts you never see, and the parts that decide whether a driveway still looks sharp in ten years' time.

What's Included

  • Full excavation and MOT Type 1 sub-base
  • Concrete-haunched edge restraints
  • Herringbone, stretcher and basketweave patterns
  • Contrasting borders, edging courses and feature circles
  • Kiln-dried sand jointing and plate compaction
  • Optional sealing for long-term colour retention

Benefits

Why Block Paving Works

01

Built To Take Weight

A properly engineered sub-base and interlocking blocks spread vehicle loads, so there is no rutting or sinking where you park.

02

Repairable, Not Replaceable

Individual blocks lift out and go back in. Access a service or mark a block and the repair is invisible.

03

Design Freedom

Patterns, borders, circles and colour blends let us frame your entrance and complement the brickwork of your home.

04

Immediate Kerb Appeal

A crisp block paved driveway is one of the highest-impact improvements you can make to the front of a property.

FAQs

Block Paving — Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a block paving driveway take?+

A typical two-car driveway takes three to five working days including excavation, base preparation, laying and jointing. Larger or sloping sites, or jobs needing new drainage, can take a week or more.

Do I need planning permission?+

Usually not, provided surface water drains to a permeable area within your property rather than onto the road. We design the falls and drainage to keep your driveway compliant.

Will weeds grow through the joints?+

The joints are filled with kiln-dried sand and compacted, and a membrane sits below the sub-base. Occasional windblown seeds can settle on the surface, but they pull away easily and sealing reduces it further.

Can you lay over my existing driveway?+

We don't recommend it. Laying over an old surface raises levels against your damp course and thresholds, and you inherit any weakness underneath. We excavate and build up properly.
