GROUNDWORK PREPARATION

Block Pavers Coppull UK (01257)

If your new block pave drive in Coppull is replacing a pre-existing drive, it will be necessary to first lift, remove and recycle the old materials. To make certain your new block pave drive adheres to building regulations with respect to the damp proof course of your property, additional excavations might also be necessary. The rules demand that new driveways are laid 2 brick courses or 6 inches below the existing damp proof course of your house.

Around 9 inches (230mm) of soil will need to be excavated and disposed of if your new block paved drive in Coppull is going onto grass or bare earth. This is going to allow for the installation of a decent sub-base and sharp sand stratum, before any block pavers are laid.

SUB-BASE INSTALLATION

A good layer of Type 1 crushed stones and gravel, topped with sharp sand, is used to create the sub-base. To make sure that the driveway doesn't move or develop dips where puddles can form, a sturdy sub-base is crucial. The MOT Type 1 is a crushed aggregate, generally made from limestone or granite which is compacted to form a sturdy, solid and durable surface for your driveway, path or patio in Coppull.

During this stage of the installation process any potential issues with drainage will be addressed. To allow the water to drain off easily, a fall or slope, will be inserted, if one is not already present in the natural lay of the land. This water can either be directed as far away from your property as possible, or into drainage grates, inserted between the drive and your home.

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

WATER RUN-OFF AND DRAINAGE REQUIREMENTS

Any driveway in Coppull that has a surface area in excess of 5 sq metres, must include a provision for the water to drain away to a permeable area close by. If your drive can't abide by this proviso, planning permission will be needed from your local authorities. You're not allowed to divert water run-off from a drive into the main drainage system, as it can increase the risk of localised flooding in the area.

Any experienced block paving installation specialist in Coppull will calculate your drainage requirements and take action as necessary to keep your new driveway within the legislation, as an integral part of the installation process. So as to accomplish this they may have to install a SUDS compliant permeable driveway, add integrated drainage grates/channels or excavate a soakaway area .

Buildings which are in a designated conservation area will require additional consideration in relation to drainage and design aspects. With their experience and knowhow, a reliable block paving installer will be able to skillfully steer you through this tricky process, and reach a satisfactory solution.

AMOUNT, STYLE AND COLOUR OF PAVERS

There are a variety of different shapes, sizes and colours of block pavers, and no matter what design and layout of driveway you require, you should easily be able to find a product that works. With anything from the frequently seen straight sided, rectangular or square block pavers, to the more ornamental, curved, circular, diamond and s-shape variations, you should be able to find your perfect style. You could create an attractive feature with a contrasting colour, or pick one that exactly matches and complements your property's brickwork.

Tumbled Block Paving Coppull (PR7)

Traditional style block paving, generally known as tumbled pavers, can be purchased for older buildings in Coppull, to create a sympathetic and seamless entryway to your home. Pre-faded during manufacture and having a reclaimed and time-worn appearance, tumbled pavers give the impression that they have been there for years. There are also contemporary pavers for that more modern feel, which when given a coat of a suitable sealer, give a high-gloss finish.

Your new drive in Coppull could be designed as a straightforward oblong or square shape, or it could snake its way around other landscaped elements of your garden. The three most common paver designs are Herringbone, Stretcher Bond and Basketweave, although the laying of block paving can be carried out in a number of patterns to produce different effects. A good block paving specialist in Coppull will provide you with a quality driveway that looks amazing, whichever design you pick.

The installation of a suitable block paving edging should also be something to look into. To find out about the advantages of raised kerb stones, different shapes or colours, or if your drive butts up against walls, whether it actually needs to be edged at all, you can chat to your block paving contractor.

THE DISPOSAL OF WASTE

Charges for the removal of waste materials and its correct disposal should all be included in any block paving installation estimate. Naturally, the volume of earth and existing driveway materials that will need to be carted away will hinge on the dimensions of your new driveway and whether or not a pre-existing driveway is involved. Any excavated earth must be moved by by truck if it can't be used in other sections of your garden. Most of the excavated earth and other materials can easily be reused, so they must be taken to a registered disposal site.

OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER

You might be encouraged to apply a seal to the block paving after it's been installed, although this is not absolutely essential for your new driveway in Coppull. Sealing a block paving driveway will help shield your drive from staining, reduce the risk of weed and algae growth, prevents fading and extends the lifespan of your drive. If you would like to protect the investment that you've made in your block paved driveway, sealing it is an excellent way to do it.

Block paved driveways should never be sealed right after installation, since it is necessary for the sand and joints to properly settle for a period of time. The suggested waiting time for coating a new block paved driveway with sealant is 6 mths, and it is always better to use a specialist for this type of project as it's difficult to rectify any mistakes that are made in this process.

CONCLUSION

A block paved patio or drive can truly transform the look of your property in Coppull. It can create a fantastic area to enjoy a durable barbecue and seating area in your garden, or provide a stable and hard wearing area for securely parking your vehicles.
