Block Paving Wath-upon-Dearne

Block Paving Wath-upon-Dearne South Yorkshire (S63): At this present time, block paving is one of the most popular ways to add a patio, drive or pathway to a property in Wath-upon-Dearne. The principal use of block pavers in commercial and residential settings is for establishing a hard wearing and durable parking area for vehicles.

For any Wath-upon-Dearne property, off-road parking is an extremely appealing feature which will add value to your home, as long as it's installed properly. Money invested in good quality block paving now will pay dividends in the long run should you ever decide to sell your house.

You must think about the dimensions of your block pave drive in Wath-upon-Dearne during the design phase of the process, to make sure that it is large enough for your purpose. It is best to plan your drive to be able to move around and safely park your car or vehicle, but naturally you may be restricted by the dimensions of the area you've got to build it on. If it is at all possible in your situation, it is also recommended to build a driveway that has enough room for more than just your own vehicle. This will provide the extra space required when anyone visits your house, and for additional cars that could be purchased by your family later on.

When attempting to find a reliable contractor to lay your new block paved area in Wath-upon-Dearne, always get no less than 3 fully itemised quotes from different companies. Where possible, you could ask friends or family who've had a block paved drive installed, for their advice and recommendations.

Any Wath-upon-Dearne block paving contractor worthy of the name will be happy to provide you with a cost-free and in depth quote for the project in hand. Any contractors who simply turn up at your front door declaring they "just happen to be working locally on another job", should generally be avoided. There are far too many scary stories of property owners having substandard work, or being embarrassed and out of pocket when the promised driveway is not finished, by these types of scoundrels.

Provisioned for any quote should be items like:

• Preparation groundwork (excavations)
• Sub-base installation
• Drainage and water run-off specifications
• Quantity, colour and style of block pavers
• Disposal of waste
• Other issues to consider

If your new block paving dive is is going to replace a pre-existing drive, it will be necessary to lift, remove and dispose of the old materials. It may be required to conduct more excavations to make certain that building regulations with respect to your property's damp proof course (DPC) are adhered to. New installations of driveways should be at least 2 brick courses or 6 inches below the current damp proof course.

Wath-upon-Dearne block paved driveways that are being laid upon bare earth or grass, will need about 9 inches (230mm) of soil to be excavated and removed from the site. This will allow for the creation of a proper sub-base and sharp sand stratum, before your block pavers are put down.

A good layer of MOT Type 1 crushed gravel and stones, topped with sharp sand, is used to form the sub-base. A solid sub-base makes sure that your drive doesn't move or develop low lying spots and dips where puddles can form. The Type 1 is a crushed aggregate mixture, generally comprising limestone or granite which is firmly packed down to form a durable, strong and firm surface for your patio, footpath or driveway in Wath-upon-Dearne.

During this stage of the installation process any potential issues with drainage will be sorted out. If this is not already inherent in the lay of the land, a gradient or fall will be inserted, to encourage the water to run-off. This can be directed either away from your house or into purpose built drainage grates that are installed between your home and the driveway.

As soon as the sub-base type 1 aggregate has been firmly compacted down, sharp sand is added and levelled off to create a base for laying and arranging the blocks.

Any driveway in Wath-upon-Dearne with an area of over 5 square metres, must include a provision for the excess water to drain off to a permeable area close by. Planning permission from your local authorities will be needed, if this precondition can't be observed. Any excess water from your drive can't be redirected into the drainage system due to the risk of localised flooding.

To keep your new driveway within the law, a reliable Wath-upon-Dearne block paving installer will check your requirements for drainage as an integral part of the installation process and take any necessary action. In order to do this they might have to add integrated drainage channels, install a SUDS compliant permeable driveway or excavate a soak-away area .

Properties which are in a declared conservation area will need added consideration in relation to design and drainage factors. To get advice and guidance through this procedure, you should seek the assistance of a reputable block paving installation contractor in Wath-upon-Dearne.

To suit any design of drive you require, block paving comes in an array of sizes, colours and shapes. From standard straight edged, oblong or square blocks, to curved, diamond, s-shape and circular, you'll find a style for you. You can create an attractive feature with a totally different colour, or choose one which pretty much matches your home's brickwork.

To create a more sympathetic and seamless entryway to older homes in Wath-upon-Dearne, you may opt to purchase the traditional style pavers, known as tumbled pavers. These are pre-faded and have a character and rustic look to their appearance. You can also purchase contemporary pavers if you're aiming to concoct a more modern look, and these can even have a high-gloss finish by applying a suitable sealer.

Your new block paver drive in Wath-upon-Dearne could be designed as a simple square or rectangular shape, or it could weave around other landscaping elements of your garden. Three of the most widespread paver designs are Basketweave, Herringbone and Stretcher Bond, although block paving can be laid in several patterns for different effects. Whatever design or pattern you use, a reputable block paving installer in Wath-upon-Dearne will build you a magnificent looking driveway that will be the envy of your neighbours.

You must also think about installing some edging. Your chosen installer will be glad to discuss the advantages of raised kerb stones, contrasting shapes and colours, or if your drive even needs to be edged at all.

Any block paving installation quote should always include an allowance for the removal of waste and the responsible manner of its disposal. The quantity of soil and existing driveway materials that will be required to be disposed of will be determined by the size of your new driveway. Unless you're able to utilise the excavated soil in other sections of your garden, it will need to be hauled away by truck or trailer. Earth and related materials that are excavated must be disposed of in a responsible, ecological manner at a registered site.

You may be advised to put a sealing coat the block paving after it's been installed, although this is not essential for your new driveway in Wath-upon-Dearne. Sealing can help to prolong the lifespan of your block paving drive, it also shields it from staining, inhibits the growth of algae, brings out the true colour and stops fading. The applying of an appropriate paving sealer is the ideal way to protect the significant investment you've made in your new drive.

Block paved driveways must never be sealed right after installation, as it is important for the joints and sand to properly settle for a period of time. It's recommended that you wait at least six months before applying sealant to a new drive, and it is advisable to use a professional for the application since errors are tricky to correct.

Aside from adding a useful feature, and boosting the price of your property, you can transform the look of your home with a brand new block paving driveway or patio. It can create a wonderful area to relax and enjoy a durable barbecue and seating area in your garden, or provide a stable and hard wearing area for parking your vehicle.
