Block Paving Driveways in Amersham

Block paving laid on a subbase is stronger than concrete itself. You should expect it to last a lifetime as long as due care is taken with your driveway in the form of regular maintenance.

It is good practice to provide maintenance to your driveway usually in the form of regular sweeping, jet washing and the occasional sanding.

We can provide a range of sealants then select one that is specifically suited to your type of paving, to minimise issues from arising.

Despite their name, all-purpose sealants are actually largely ineffective, offering a one-size fits all approach, as opposed to more targeted tackling of weed growth. We will select the sealant that will give you the effect you are looking for: matt, wet look, damp look, low sheen or neutral.

One of the main reasons why your block paving sinks is because the drive was not laid properly. In most cases, the reason is ground preparation. The company installing your original driveway likely didn’t dig down deep enough before starting to lay the sub-base.

We can help by providing repairs, which may involve digging out areas of the paving to create a more sturdy foundation.

Costs will vary depending on the size of your drive, materials used, any necessary base work, patterns and used extras such as edging, steps or drainage. No two projects are the same. Please contact us and we would be happy to provide a free site survey and quote.
