What is a block paving driveway?
Block paving, or brick paving, is a classic but stylish choice for your driveway or hardstanding. Blocks or bricks are used to create patterns in a wide variety of designs and styles so you can personalise the look. At Applecore Home Improvements, we understand that your driveway sets the tone for your home, which is why we use only the highest quality materials to create the driveway of your dreams.
Why should you choose a block paving driveway?
A block paving driveway by Applecore Home Improvements not only creates an appealing finished surface in a range of styles and designs, but will also add value to your home while offering curb appeal for the whole area. Block paving driveways are naturally strong due to their interlocking design and often have the added benefit of easy drainage without the need for a separate drainage system. Conveniently, you can also replace single blocks where necessary, avoiding costly repairs, and as block paving offers better fade resistance than other finishes, you can enjoy your finished look for longer.
How is block paving laid?
Block paving is laid on a firm and level surface that has good drainage – this may require excavation and always requires good preparation. A standard sub-base will be laid and then compacted before a layer of sharp sand which will form the ‘bed’ for the blocks. Our skilled Applecore Home Improvements team will ensure that the colours of the blocks are mixed correctly so that you get an even finish in your chosen pattern. Once the laying is completed, kiln dried sand will be brushed into the joints and compacted several times to ensure there are no gaps and all the blocks are level.
What a block paving driveway can do for you:
- Block paving uses bricks or blocks to create stylish, customisable driveway designs.
- It enhances your home’s appearance and can increase property value and kerb appeal.
- The interlocking design makes it strong, durable, and allows for natural drainage.
- Individual blocks can be replaced easily, reducing repair costs and maintaining appearance.
- Installation involves a prepared sub-base, sand bedding, careful block placement, and joint sealing for a level, long-lasting finish.
