Block Paving in Hither Green

4.9/5 · 48 verified reviews · Local block paving near you in SE13

Block paving is still the hardest-wearing driveway surface for Hither Green homes, as long as it's laid properly. We lay concrete and clay block paving across SE13 on a deep compacted sub-base and screeded sharp sand, with concrete-haunched edges so the blocks stay tight and level under daily traffic.

We choose patterns (herringbone for driveways, stretcher bond or basketweave for paths) to suit the load and the look of the house, then kiln-dried sand the joints and plate-compact the surface. On request we add borders, banding and sealing.

If it's properly laid on a good sub-base, block paving lasts 20–30+ years. Individual blocks can be lifted and replaced.

A properly compacted, kiln-dried-sand joint plus an optional sealant keeps weeds to a minimum.

Yes. Where blocks have sunk, we lift them, rebuild the base and re-lay them, often reusing the original blocks.
