Stone house with a grey block-paved front drive

Every surface, laid on a proper base.

Block paving, resin, tarmac, imprinted concrete, gravel and patios. One crew does the groundwork and the finish.

Pick your surface. See what goes underneath.

A drive is only as good as its base. Here is how we build each one, layer by layer.

Block paving

Hard-wearing interlocking blocks laid on a compacted base. A damaged block lifts out and replaces on its own, so the drive ages well.

Concrete block paving 50mm
Sharp sand bedding 30mm
MOT Type 1 sub-base 150mm
Geotextile membrane Base

Typical lifespan 20 to 25 years
Best for Heavy use and easy spot repairs
