FAQ
How long does block paving last?

With proper installation and maintenance, a professionally installed block-paved driveway can last 20–25 years or more. The lifespan depends on the quality of the materials, ground preparation, drainage and ongoing maintenance.

How long does it take to install a block-paved driveway?

The installation time depends on the size and condition of the area. A typical residential driveway can usually be completed within 3–7 days, including excavation, preparation, laying the blocks and finishing.

Is block paving suitable for driveways?

Yes. Block paving is one of the most popular choices for driveways because it is strong, attractive and relatively easy to repair. Individual damaged blocks can also be replaced without having to remove the entire driveway.

What colours and patterns are available?

Block paving is available in a wide range of colours, sizes and styles. Popular laying patterns include herringbone, stretcher bond and basketweave, allowing you to create a driveway that complements your property.

Does block paving require maintenance?

Block paving is relatively low-maintenance, but regular sweeping and occasional cleaning can help keep it looking its best. Weeds and moss should also be removed when necessary.

Can you install block paving over an existing driveway?

This depends on the condition and construction of the existing surface. In some situations it may be possible, but a proper assessment is required to ensure the finished driveway has adequate strength, levels and drainage.

How much does block paving cost?

The cost depends on factors such as the size of the area, excavation requirements, ground conditions, drainage, materials and the chosen design. The best way to get an accurate price is to arrange a site survey and quotation.

Do you offer free quotations?
