Block Paving Driveways in Kent

Block Paving Driveway Contractors in Kent

Block paving uses individual paving units to create the finished driveway surface, providing a distinctly different appearance from continuous materials such as tarmac or resin bound surfacing.

It can be used across complete driveways as well as paths and other areas around the property entrance, allowing the different elements of the frontage to be brought together within the wider design.

Attractive Driveways for Kent Homes

A new driveway can have a major influence on the first impression of a property. Block paving provides a more decorative appearance for homeowners who want their parking area to contribute to the overall look of the entrance.

The layout of the paved area can be considered alongside surrounding paths, landscaping, brickwork and other existing features to create a frontage that works practically as well as visually.

New Block Paving Driveways

If you’re creating a driveway where there is currently no off-street parking, appropriate ground preparation is required before paving begins. The existing area may need to be excavated and prepared for its new use.

Groundworks and site preparation are core A&A Construction & Surfacing services, allowing us to undertake these early stages directly before completing the block paved surface.

Replace an Existing Driveway

An older driveway may still provide parking but no longer offer the appearance you want for the property. Replacing it with block paving provides an opportunity to completely refresh the entrance while retaining its practical function.

We assess the existing area before work begins to establish what preparation is required beneath the new driveway rather than assuming the existing construction can simply be paved over.

Create a More Defined Property Entrance

One advantage of block paving is the ability to use paving across different areas of the frontage. The driveway and pedestrian access can form part of a coordinated layout, while landscaping can be retained or altered around the paved sections.

This makes block paving particularly useful where the project involves improving the appearance and organisation of the wider entrance rather than simply replacing one surface with another.

Professional Ground Preparation

The visible paving is the final part of the installation, but the preparation beneath it remains an important part of the overall driveway construction. Existing ground conditions, levels and previous surfaces all influence the work required.

Our groundwork experience enables us to undertake excavation and preparation ourselves, providing continuity between the construction beneath the driveway and the finished paving.

Driveway Drainage

Drainage needs to be considered when constructing or substantially altering a driveway. The size and layout of the paved area, existing levels and surrounding surfaces can all affect how water needs to be managed.

A&A Construction & Surfacing undertakes drainage alongside our driveway and groundwork services, allowing associated work to be incorporated into the project where required.

New Parking & Vehicle Access

Where a property frontage is being converted into off-street parking for the first time, access from the highway may need to be created alongside the driveway itself.

Our experience across dropped kerbs, groundworks and driveway construction allows the physical work involved in creating the crossover and private parking area to be coordinated as part of the same project.

Block Paving, Paths & Landscaping

A driveway does not have to be treated separately from the rest of the property frontage. Block paving can work particularly well where the project also includes pedestrian paths or changes to surrounding landscaped areas.

We provide landscaping, paving, brickwork and groundworks alongside our driveway services, giving customers the flexibility to improve multiple parts of the entrance within the same project.

Driveways Designed Around the Property

The amount of available parking space, existing boundaries, pedestrian routes and shape of the frontage can all influence how a new driveway should be laid out.

We consider the individual site and intended use of the area before establishing the preparation and construction required, whether we’re replacing an established driveway or creating parking for the first time.
