What Is Block Paving?
Block paving driveways are made from bricks or blocks, laid in various patterns to create a decorative and hard-wearing surface. These blocks are placed on a prepared base, with sand compacted between the joints to lock them in place.
Block paving is a popular choice for homeowners in the UK because it combines strength, versatility, and visual appeal. With countless colours, textures, and designs available, block paving allows you to customise your driveway to perfectly suit your home.
