Is Block Paving Better Than Tarmac or Resin?
Homeowners often compare block paving with tarmac and resin driveways. In Kent and South East London, block paving remains one of the most popular choices due to its durability and design flexibility.
Unlike tarmac, block paving offers a wide range of colours, styles, and patterns. It enhances kerb appeal and can be tailored to complement period or modern properties.
Compared to resin-bound driveways, block paving allows individual brick replacement if damage occurs. Resin surfaces can require more extensive repair if cracks develop.
Block paving also performs well under heavy vehicles and high traffic. When installed correctly with a solid sub-base, it resists sinking and cracking.
While resin may provide a smoother finish and tarmac can be cheaper initially, block paving offers long-term value, especially where aesthetics matter.
For properties in competitive housing markets, visual appeal can directly influence resale value. A professionally designed block paved driveway can transform the entrance to your home.
