Block Paving in Birmingham

Block paving can look great as a driveway. It really is an elegant and functional answer to your driveway and can give your home great kerb appeal. Whether you want a classic herringbone design or something a little different, there are many block paving materials and options available to you. The bricks used in block paving are mostly manufactured from clay, but some are made of different composite materials. One of the main advantages to block paving is that if a few of the bricks get broken over time, they can simply be replaced. It also means that it is easier to carry out work under the surface of the paving without leaving a mark. The most frequent pattern that driveway companies lay is the herringbone pattern since it has the strongest interlock, rendering it a fantastic choice for driveways. The herringbone pattern is established by the tradesperson by setting the blocks at 45 degrees or 90 degrees to the perpendicular. Both types of herringbone pattern create an elegant and interesting look for your driveway that will make your home look fantastic to potential buyers.
