Herringbone 45°
Best for vehicles. 10 to 12 per cent cutting waste.
Service · Block paving driveways
A drive that stays flat.
Most failed driveways fail underneath. Ours are specified from the bottom up: depth, base, bed, then the pattern you actually see. Typical single-drive job: four working days.
Choose a bond
Herringbone is the default.
The three patterns we lay, drawn at the same scale so you can compare how each one locks.
Basketweave
Best for pedestrian areas and edging.
Stretcher bond
Fine for light traffic on straight runs.
Questions
Before you ring us.
Do I need planning permission?
Not if the surface is permeable or drains to a lawn or border within the property. We design every drive to do one of the two and tell you in writing.
How long until I can park on it?
Straight away on foot. Cars after 24 hours, vans and skips after three days, while the joints finish settling.
Will weeds come through?
Some seed lands in the joints of any paving. A polymeric sand top-up and a yearly sweep keeps it clean.
Can you match an existing patio?
Usually. Bring a photo and we will bring samples.
