PERMEABLE BLOCK PAVING & SUDS
You can now choose from a larger selection of ‘Permeable Block Paving’ for your driveway or patio installation.
This is a permeable paver solution that can be used in Sustainable Drainage Schemes (SuDS). It allows water quickly to drain into the subbase, then slowly into soil. This helps reduce the potential for flooding and the risk of runoff.
This type of blockpaving doesn’t require planning permission.
These blocks are available in Drivesett Argent & Tegula products as well Driveline.
The blocks have an edge nib that allows for surface stability. But it also creates voids where surface water can easily run through to a special sub-base.
We work in Lower Beauvale plus these local areas and more:
This system allows surface water to slowly be released back into the surrounding environment, a process called attenuation. Modern sewers and drains bypass this natural process, which means that the ground is unable to absorb much of the water. The SuDS and Permeable Paving balances this situation and allows the ground, much like a massive soakaway, to naturally absorb, store, and slowly release the collected water.
Geotextile is permeable fabric used to seperate ground and sub-base. The surface water can filter through without loss of subbase.
Block Paving can be used to improve any commercial or domestic garden. You will also have a well-designed walkway for guests, family, and staff members. Our work is guaranteed 100%.

Q and A's
What is block paving?
Block paving, also known as brick pavers, is a common decorative method for creating a driveway or pavement. Bricks and blocks used in this type of paving can be made from clay or concrete. Sometimes, other composite materials are also used. Bricks are a great way to create many different patterns of paving. One of the most common is the herringbone design, which allows for the strongest interlocking between the blocks.

How Expensive Is Block Paving?
Block paving is a good investment for your home. However, the cost will vary depending on several factors. Block paving materials, professional installation, groundwork, and other factors will all impact the cost of your new driveway. Prices will vary from one region to the next.
The following factors are major determinants of the cost of block-paving driveways:
- Materials: Each brand and type of paving has a unique price point.
- The foundation or groundwork is required for block paving driveways. A sub-base is usually made of crushed rock and similar materials. As part of the driveway cost, your paving contractor will need to include the cost of digging and installing the base.
- Labour costs: Block paving costs will be charged at a cost per m2.
- Excavating and waste disposal: Additional activities, such as digging your old driveway or disposing waste materials, will be added to your quote
What Sand should I use for a Block Paving Driveway?
Block paved driveways are not made from any ordinary sand. Block-paved driveways are usually laid with kiln dried, sand. Each block of the drive is held in place by the sand, which locks it into its adjacent neighbor.
Kiln dried, sand is completely dried, without any moisture. This sand is extra dry, so it won’t clump together while being laid. This reduces the chance of your drive moving.
Is Block Paving Permeable or Not?
Block paving is very popular due to its high permeability. Block paving is a highly porous, durable material that can be used to make driveways. Your paving blocks will absorb water, unlike concrete. This eliminates the possibility of slippage on the surface and can also prevent water from pooling if drainage is poor.
How long can block pavers last?
If laid properly, block paving will last a lifetime. Although there will be some maintenance, block paving can be easily removed from damaged areas or blocks, rather than having to replace entire driveways. You can easily lift individual blocks of block paving bricks if they are cracked or damaged. But with regular maintenance this should be rare. Block paving driveways will not last forever and should only be purchased once.
How can you stop weeds in blocking paving?
Block paving has a lower incidence of weeds than gravel driveways. However they can grow between the paving blocks. White vinegar and rock salt can be used as natural weed killers. Any commercial weed-killing products can be used once you have detected any growth. Some of these products also contain a preventative component to help with future growth.
Can Block Paving be laid on a concrete base?
Block paving can be laid on concrete, but it is dependent on its condition. Concrete laid to simply put paving stones on top of it is not recommended. Relaying a damaged block or making any concrete changes will affect the quality of your driveway. Concrete cracks can become problematic due to the freeze-thaw cycle. This could mean that you will need to rebuild the driveway. Make sure the concrete driveway is properly evaluated before you consider a block-paving driveway.
Is it possible to lay block paving in winter?
You driveway installation shouldn’t be affected by weather conditions. Block paving is possible as long as the subbase can be kept dry for a stable, fully set surface. Most people wait until the cooler spring and summer months before laying block paving to avoid being delayed by the weather.
Can Block Paving Driveways be Painted?
You can either leave the block paving alone or paint it to match your property’s exterior. Block paving can also be preserved with sealants or stain-resistant cover to keep its natural look. Make sure that your blocks are completely dry before applying paint. You can use any masonry painting and apply it using a rolling pin, just as with exterior brickwork.
What should I do when my driveway is on a sloped surface?
Block paving is not fine for a sloped driveway. If the foundation is solid and the sub-base deep enough, a sloped driveway may look beautiful with block pavement.
How to clean block paver driveways?
Is it possible to jet wash block paving? – However, you must ensure that it is done properly and with the right pressure. If you pressure wash your driveway with too strong a force, it can cause cracks in the sand and result in uneven or loosed blocks. To jet wash your block pavers, be careful and do it at a 45° angle. This reduces the pressure on your sand. While you may see some sand moving, it is not necessary. Once your paving is dry, remove all dirt and grime.
How to clean block paving without a pressure washer?
You may not have access to a pressure washer but it is possible to keep your drive shining and clean. A stiff brush and broom are good options to remove dirt or loose grime. Then, use the chosen cleaning product to scrub your driveway. Once you are satisfied that your driveway is clean, rinse it with water and allow it to dry.
