People Also Ask - FAQs

1. What is the most suitable type of block paving for a driveway?
Ans: It ultimately depends on your style and usage requirements. For heavy-use areas, use 60mm or thicker concrete blocks or granite sets—they're absolute toughies. If you want something more natural in appearance, sandstone or limestone block paving provides that high-end look without compromising on durability. Just be sure to opt for something with robust weather resistance in the UK climate.

2. How long does block paving last on a driveway?
Ans: With correct installation and periodic upkeep, a block-paved driveway can withstand 20–25 years or even longer. Things that are most important to keep it going long are applying a suitable sub-base, sealing the joints, and preventing weeds.

3. How can I prevent my block paving from sinking or moving?
Ans: The key is in prep! A decently compacted sub-base and edge restraints are essential. Plus, use factory-calibrated slabs for evenly spaced gaps and improved load distribution. If you get it right, it'll remain level and firm for years.

4. Can I self-lay block paving, or do I need a professional?
Ans: If you are handy and know your tools, DIY is an option, particularly with the assistance of technical guides and instructions in stages (which we provide!). But for bigger areas or more complex patterns, it could be an idea to call in a professional to ensure everything is done to specification.
