Block Paving
Block paving suits South Manchester streets: it takes a car on it every day, it can be lifted if a drain needs attention, and it ages better than a poured surface that cracks in one place and has to be patched.
We lay it in herringbone, stretcher bond or basketweave, with a soldier course edge and sand-filled joints, over a properly compacted base. Where a drive slopes towards the house we set a channel drain or a soakaway rather than letting water sit against the wall.
What is involved
- Herringbone, stretcher and basketweave patterns
- Charcoal, brindle, grey and red block options
- Compacted sub-base and sharp sand bedding
- Soldier course edging, haunched with concrete
- Channel drains, soakaways and falls
- Old paving lifted and re-laid where it is sound
