Block Paving Driveways in Kent and South East London
A new block paved driveway can help give your property a more premium look, without the price tag of resin or natural stone.
Block paving is available in various colours and finishes, and it can also be used to create feature patterns. Choose the colour you like, add some edging, and block paving will give your driveway a neat, modern feel.
What is a Block Paved Driveway?
Block paving is a highly popular, tough and attractive choice for driveways. It consists of paving slabs in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colours – making the design opportunities almost endless.
The versatility of block paving is what has made it such an enduring favourite for homeowners in Kent and South East London.
Why Choose a Block Paving Driveway?
Block paving is a versatile driveway option with a lot to offer.
- Versatility. Block paving can be used to create a vast combination of patterns and colours.
- Flexibility. This is useful if your drive needs contouring because it is not completely level.
- Aesthetics. Choose the colours and textures you want for a modern or traditional finish.
- Durability. Block paving is durable, and we can use optional sealants to prolong life further.
- Strength. Block paving is tough and strong – it is often used on roads and in car parks.
- Sealing. We always recommend sealing our drives to protect from water and frost damage.

Things to watch out for when choosing a paving company in Kent
It’s easy for an inexperienced company to mis-sell a block paved driveway.
- Sand should always be kept to a minimum – a compressed depth of 30mm is plenty. Too much sand can cause your driveway to sink.
- The cheapest weed-proof membranes don’t allow water through, which can lead to dips and puddles in the driveway.
- Some companies place the weed-proof membrane underneath the sand, which is ineffective – since weeds mainly take root from fallen debris – and can reduce permeability and make the driveway to sag.
- We offer a weed resistant sand, which is much more effective, and ensure we keep sand layers thin and even to prevent sagging.
- All of our block paving driveways are SuDS compliant, meaning your drive will meet with government guidelines. It will be safe, free from excess water and environmentally friendly.
Remember – the cheapest option isn’t always the best option. If you have any concerns, please talk to us.
