PERMEABLE BLOCKING & 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.

Block paving like this does not require planning permission.

These blocks can be found in almost all of the non-permeable equivalent products – Drivesett Argent & Tegula, as well as 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 Tithby 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 drains, sewers, and other infrastructures override this natural process, making it impossible for the ground to absorb as much water as possible. Permeable pavement and SuDS balance the situation, allowing ground to absorb, store, then slowly release the water in controlled ways – just like a big soakaway.

Geotextile is permeable fabric used to seperate ground and sub-base. The surface water can filter through without loss of subbase.

Block Paving will enhance any garden, commercial or private. It will provide a safe and well-lit walkway for employees, visitors or family. Our work is completely guaranteed.

It is not enough to use just any any sand for laying a block-paved driveway. Block paved driveways are most commonly laid using kiln dried sand. Each block is secured by the sand next to its neighbor, creating a stable and secure structure for the entire drive.

Kiln dried Sand is completely dry and without moisture. The extra fine texture makes it great for packing blocks of block paving blocks. This type of sand doesn’t stick together during construction due to its extra dry nature. This helps reduce the possibility of movement in your drive.

Block paving is a popular choice because of its high level of permeability. Block paving is a porous material that is durable and can be used for driveways. You can absorb water into your pavers blocks, which are not like concrete. This reduces the chance of people slipping on the surface. It also eliminates potential damage that water could cause if there is no drainage or water pooling.

Block paving is durable if it is well laid. Block paving will need to be maintained over time. But you can easily remove damaged blocks or areas rather than replacing the entire driveway. If a block paving brick is cracked or damaged, it can be lifted separately. However, with regular maintenance, this should not be an issue. Block Paving driveways should not be considered a permanent investment. They will provide a stylish drive that will last for many years.

Block paving tends to have fewer weeds that gravel driveways. However if there are a few, they can be caught between the paving blocks.

Block paving can be laid on concrete, but it is dependent on its condition. It is not recommended that concrete be laid with the intention of putting paving blocks on top. The driveway’s quality will be affected by any changes in the concrete beneath the block-paving. This may make it more complicated to replace a damaged one. Concrete cracks may be negatively affected by freeze-thaw cycles. In this case, you may have to repave the entire driveway. Professionals can assess the suitability of a concrete block paving driveway.

Block paving is not fine for a sloped driveway. If it is correctly installed and has a deep enough subbase, a sloped driveway could look amazing with block paving.
