YOUR OPTIONS
Choosing the right block paving for your home
Blocks, patterns and edging
Different block sizes, colours and laying patterns can create a traditional or contemporary finish. A contrasting edge can define the driveway, while a matching path carries the design towards your front door.
Think about the number of cars, turning space and pedestrian access as well as the appearance. We can talk through a layout that works around your entrance and existing garden features.
INSTALLATION
Groundwork, drainage and laying
01
Assess the site
Check the existing surface, ground conditions and intended use.
02
Build the base
Prepare a suitable sub-base and secure edges, with levels and drainage considered.
03
Lay the blocks
Prepare the bedding and lay the blocks to the selected design.
04
Joint & finish
Complete the jointing using the material specified for the paving system.
If you want a permeable driveway, raise this at the consultation. Permeable paving uses a suitable construction and jointing system; ordinary block paving should not be assumed to provide the same drainage performance.
AFTERCARE
Keeping paving in good condition
Regular sweeping removes dirt and leaves before they build up in the joints. Use a cleaner suited to the blocks and check the jointing after cleaning. Conventional sand-jointed paving may need the joints topping up with the correct sand; permeable systems require their specified jointing material.
Individual blocks can often be lifted and replaced if damaged, which is useful when considering future repairs or access to services below the driveway.
HELPFUL ANSWERS
Block Paving questions answered
See examples of MGC’s work or request a free quotation for your home.
Can you match a path or patio to the driveway?
Yes. Block paving can be used for driveways, paths and patios. Discuss matching materials, borders and the different demands on each area during the consultation.
Is all block paving permeable?
No. The blocks, joints and underlying construction must work together as a permeable system. We will need to assess the site and drainage requirements before recommending an option.
How long does a block paving project take?
The area, removal of the old surface, access and drainage work affect the time required. MGC can give an estimated programme once the site and design have been assessed.
Can damaged blocks be replaced?
Individual units can often be replaced without renewing the whole surface. Matching older blocks may depend on product availability, so retaining spare blocks from the installation can be helpful.
