BLOCK PAVING AND PATIOS
Block paving is a hugely popular choice for a driveway, and one that requires good preparation to get the best job.
Block Paving
What you see on the surface is only as good as the preparation and it’s all too easy to end up with dips and hollows that collect water and spoil the outlook you envisaged. Block paving needs to be surrounded by something to give a firm edge. The edges of any paving are the most vulnerable areas and we recommend either curb edging or laying an edge on the paving blocks you are using. When laying your driveway we need to ensure we start with a solid base. To achieve this we start by digging down 10 inches below finish block height. We will then add sub-base to start, followed by a layer of concrete to get a solid base. We will than add sand and finish off with your choice of block. After all your blocks are layed, the final aspects of the job will then be completed. We will compact your drive using sand and a whacker plate to ensure you have a smooth, strong finish.
Patios
With a little creativity and the right accessories you can take even a modest-sized spot in the garden or patio and turn it into an outdoor retreat. The first step to making sure you get all that you can out of your small space is deciding the kind of area you desire. You have a variety of options to choose from, ranging from outdoor dining areas to a relaxing area of your garden. We can change your patio area into a place that you can be proud of.
Superb service from the lads at SM Groundworks. They listened to everything that I asked for and created a beautiful pattern imprinted concrete driveway that I love. Highly recommended.
I couldn’t have asked for a friendlier company than SM Groundworks. They were punctual, clean and extremely friendly when digging the foundation for my extension. Superb team that I would recommend right away.
