its aesthetically pleasing final appearance, block paving is an option you
should always consider. C Nunn Paving provide

huge selection of design and pattern options to choose from, this is always

What Is Block Paving? Block paving is a method to deliver a hard surface which is
still pleasing to the eye. It can also be known as brick paving
and by laying each block or brick one by one, it means the design is easy to
maintain. If damage does occur, then the individual blocks can be removed and
replaced with the same style to maintain your property�s exterior appearance.
Block paving can be used for various different purposes,
including driveways and patios. The bricks laid are usually made from either
concrete or clay, however, other materials are available to adjust for the
design you desire. Block paving can even be made from recycled materials,
making it a great environmental option.
What Are The Benefits of Block Paving? Block paving offers a huge number of benefits for all homes
who decide to install. In addition to offering a stylish appearance, it has incredible
durability whilst also being easily maintained and repairable if damage does
occur unexpectedly. With the way block paving is installed, this makes it easy
to repair and replace all areas of the ground regardless of what the issue is. Bricks
are very unlikely to fade away, retaining its appearance and surface with good
durability.
Block paving should also add value to your property. Many homes
have a standard concrete drive and property exterior and changing this style
can significantly increase the value of your home. By having a unique property exterior, your
home becomes more appealing and if you do look to sell in the future, block
paving will represent fantastic value for money.
Due to individual bricks being replaced, this also
adds to its cost-effectiveness. You will only have to pay for replacements
bricks rather than expensive repairs.
Design & Colour Schemes Despite what you might think, block paving actually gives
you plenty of choices when it comes to the design and colour scheme of your
property exterior. There are a variety of colours, as well as block paving
being available in different shapes. Once you have chosen the colour and shape
you would like, this is designed into any pattern you would like.
Each block paving pattern is completely bespoke to your
requirements and the design you would like for your property. Whether this is
to fit in with your existing exterior or create a unique and stylish design,
the pattern you want is always achieved with block paving.
Repairs & Recycling Block paving is easily repaired and replaced when you need
to freshen up your exterior or bricks are beginning to wear. It is important to
restore the condition and appearance of your home so it never begins to look
tired or unappealing.
Bricks that have been used in the past can also be recycled,
making it a great option with its environmental contributions. All materials and
blocks can be removed from an existing property, recycling and reusing for the
future.
Installing Block Paving To install block paving, site preparation and excavation
will be carried out first. This will need to be inspected to ensure the site is
suitable for block paving or if a more stable foundation is needed. As block
paving comes with a standard sub-base, a layer of sand will be laid on the ground
beforehand.
Block paving will then begin, laying the bricks of the
colour you like into the desired pattern. A variety of blocks are used so the
design looks aesthetically pleasing and there are no noticeable shadings of
different colour patches. Once laid, dried sand is used to interlock the bricks
together and keep them compact.
