Before we start on your block paving project we will undertake a full survey of the area to be paved, this enables us to find out where the drainage needs to go.  We have listed below the technical specifications that we undertake when laying block paving:-

  • We will excavate to 200mm of soil and with then lay 100mm of lean mix concrete as a base to minimise any chance of the base sinking.
  • Free edges are then set on a concrete base to stop the blocks from coming loose.
  • We add, pack down and level 40mm of sand, which helps lock the pavers together and acts as a shock absorber;
  • We lay our blocks only once we are satisfied that the foundations are correctly installed.
  • We then brush fine sand between the blocks for added stability, it is then compacted again to further ensure the block paving will not move;

All of our work comes with a 10 year guarantee giving you complete peace of mind that your work has been completed to a high standard.
