PERMEABLE BOLOCK PAVING & SUPS

A wider range of Permeable Block Paving is available for driveway and patio installations.

This permeable pavement solution can be used in Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS). It allows water, which is slow to drain, to quickly drain into sub-base.

Block paving is not required to be approved for planning.

These blocks are also available in Drivesett Argent & Tegula along with Driveline.

Blocks have a nib around the edge which interlocks to increase the surface stability. However it creates gaps which surface water can easily enter to a specially prepared subbase.

We work in Little Hallam plus these local areas and more:

This system allows slow releases of water into the environment through a process called “attenuation”. Modern sewers and drains bypass this natural process, which means that the ground is unable to absorb much of the water. The SuDS and permeable pavers balance this process, allowing the ground’s natural ability to absorb, store and release the collected water in a controlled fashion – much like a large soakaway.

Geotextile is a permeable fabric that is laid to separate the sub-base and ground. It allows water to pass through the surface without causing any loss to the ground.

Block Paving is a great way to enhance your garden, whether it’s a commercial or domestic one. It also provides a clean walkway for family members, friends and employees. We stand behind all of our work.

Block paving can also be known as brick-paving. This is a widely used decorative technique to create a driveway, or pavement. The bricks or blocks that are used for this kind of paving are made out of clay or concrete. Other composite materials may also be used. You can create many different patterns with bricks.

You can’t use just any type of sand to make a block-paved driveway. The most common material for laying block-paved driveways is kiln dried. Each block is locked in place by the sand and provides stability for the entire drive.

Kiln dried Sand is completely dry and without moisture. The extra fine texture makes it great for packing blocks of block paving blocks. This type of sand is extremely dry and won’t form clumps when laid. This helps to reduce movement risk.

Block paving is a popular choice because of its high level of permeability. Block paving is a porous material that is durable and can be used for driveways. Water will not be absorbed into the paving blocks unlike concrete. This eliminates the danger of slipping on the surface.

If it is properly laid, block paving can last for a lifetime. While there will always be maintenance issues, block pavers can be removed or replaced in an area that is damaged. If a block paving brick is cracked or damaged, it can be lifted separately. However, with regular maintenance, this should not be an issue. Block paving driveways are a great investment that will last a lifetime.

Block paving is less likely to be contaminated than gravel driveways. However, weeds can still grow between the blocks. Rock salt and white vinegar both work well to kill weeds. Once you have spotted any growth, you can use any commercial weed killer product. Some of these products are also designed to prevent future growth.

Concrete can be used to lay block paving, but this is very dependent on the concrete’s condition. It is not a good idea to just lay concrete to add paving blocks. It is important to keep in mind that any concrete changes below the block paving can impact the overall quality and may require a more complex repair than simply relaying a damaged block. Concrete cracks can be affected by the freeze/thaw cycle. You may need to replace the entire driveway. Professionals can assess the suitability of a concrete block paving driveway.

No season or weather should affect driveway installation as long as it is dry. Block paving is possible as long as the subbase can be kept dry for a stable, fully set surface. For the best weather conditions, people wait until the spring and summer to start laying block pavement.

It can be used as-is or painted to complement your property’s exterior. It is also possible to seal the blocks with stain-resistant coatings or sealants. It is crucial that the blocks are dry completely before you apply any paint. As with exterior brickwork, you can apply any masonry paint to the blocks with a roller.

A sloped driveway doesn’t mean that you should avoid block paving. If it is correctly installed and has a deep enough subbase, a sloped driveway could look amazing with block paving.

Can block paving be jet washed? – However, you must ensure that it is done properly and with the right pressure. Over-pressure washing your driveway can damage the sand, which holds it in place. You will end up with loose blocks or an uneven surface. You should jet wash your block pavement carefully at a 45° angle. This will lower the pressure and reduce the impact on the sand. Some sand will shift, but it should be minimal. After the sand has dried, clean your paving.

Even though not everyone has the means to use a pressure washer they can still maintain a clean driveway. You can remove any dirt and grime using a stiff brush. Apply your chosen cleaning agent and scrub the driveway to get rid of any stains. Once you’re satisfied with the cleanliness of your driveway, use fresh water to clean it and then dry it.
