What is block paving?

Block paving is a traditional, yet stylish, paving option that adds an air of class to driveways and garden landscapes. Utilising coloured bricks and blocks, contrasting edging and a wide range of creative paving patterns allows clients to choose a new driveway or patio design that is bespoke to them.

Block paving options

There are 2 common types of paving blocks used, these are;

Moulded concrete paving blocks (CBP)

Available in an assortment of colours achieved through the use of concrete dyes, concrete block paving is an incredibly popular choice. This is also thanks to the hard-wearing, robust nature of concrete as well as the uncharacteristically versatile design options, with blocks being moulded into an array of shapes and sizes to complement all aesthetics.

Kiln-fired clay paving bricks

Typically sold in size variations ranging from standardised rectangular bricks to setts & cobbles, the clay paving block has been a staple in contemporary driveway and patio paving for decades. Whilst less durable than its concrete counterpart, the colours of clay blocks are resistant to fading over time. With the right care and maintenance, your patio or driveway will remain as picturesque as the first day it was laid.
