Frequently Asked Questions

With proper installation and maintenance, a block paved driveway can last 20-30 years. Regular cleaning and occasional resealing can extend its lifespan even further.

Generally, you don’t need planning permission for a new driveway using permeable materials or if the runoff is directed to a permeable area. However, it’s always best to check with your local council, especially if you live in a conservation area or listed building.

The average installation time for a standard-sized driveway (about 50 square metres) is typically 3-5 days, depending on the complexity of the design and site conditions.

Regular maintenance includes sweeping to remove debris, occasional power washing, and resealing every 3-5 years. Weeds should be removed promptly, and any sunken areas should be addressed to prevent further damage.

It’s generally not recommended to lay block paving directly over an existing surface. For best results and longevity, the old surface should be removed, and a proper sub-base installed. This ensures proper drainage and prevents future settling issues.
