What is block paving?
Block paving is a durable surfacing option made from individual blocks of clay or concrete. It’s popular for driveways, patios and pathways because it combines strength and visual appeal. Many Lancashire homeowners choose block paving for its long-lasting finish and design flexibility.
How long does a block paved driveway last?
With proper installation and regular maintenance, a block paved driveway can last 20+ years. The key factors in longevity are good base preparation, correct jointing and occasional cleaning or sealing.
Can I choose different patterns and colours?
Absolutely. Block paving comes in a variety of colours, shapes and laying patterns such as herringbone, stretcher bond and basket weave. This allows you to create a look that matches your home and garden design.
Does block paving require maintenance?
Block paving is relatively low maintenance, but it does benefit from regular care. Sweeping, occasional pressure washing and re-jointing sand will help keep your driveway looking its best and prevent weed growth.
Will weeds grow between the blocks?
Weeds can sometimes emerge if sand joints break down. Regular brushing and replenishing jointing sand helps prevent this. If weeds do appear, they can usually be removed easily.
Does block paving need sealing?
Sealing is optional but recommended for extra protection against staining and to enhance colour depth. A good quality sealant can also help reduce the amount of weed growth and sand loss.
How long does block paving installation take?
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the area, but most residential block paved driveways are completed within a few days. This includes base preparation, laying the blocks and final finishing.
How much does block paving cost in Lancashire?
The cost of block paving depends on factors like the size of the area, block type, pattern chosen and site access. We offer free site surveys and personalised quotes so you can get an accurate price for your project.
Do I need planning permission for block paving?
For most residential driveways in Lancashire, planning permission is not required. If necessary, we can help advise you based on your specific location and project details, ensuring you’re compliant with any local guidelines.
