Ascot Paving Specialists Ltd

• We begin by understanding your specific requirements and design preferences.

• A thorough on-site consultation helps us assess the space and identify any unique considerations.

• Together, we select the type of block paving material, considering factors like colour, style, and pattern.

• We choose high-quality, durable materials to ensure longevity.

• The key to a stable block-paved surface is a well-prepared foundation.

• We excavate the area to the required depth, ensuring proper drainage and a solid base.

• The ground is expertly compacted to prevent sinking or shifting over time.

• We add a layer of sub-base material (usually crushed stone or aggregate) to create a stable foundation.

• Proper compaction ensures a level surface that can withstand heavy use.

Installing edge restraints (usually concrete or metal) keeps the blocks in place, preventing spreading and maintaining the pattern’s integrity.

• We meticulously lay each block with precision, ensuring even spacing and alignment.

• Pattern design is crucial for visual appeal, and we take great care in this step.

• Blocks at the edges and around obstacles are carefully cut and shaped to maintain the desired pattern.

• A layer of fine sand is spread and compacted over the blocks, filling the gaps and ensuring they lock into place.

• A final compaction of the entire surface sets the blocks securely in the sand bed.

• Jointing sand is spread over the surface and brushed into the gaps between blocks.

• Excess sand is removed, and the surface is given a final sweep.

• Depending on your preference, the block paving can be sealed to enhance colour and protect against stains and weeds.

• We ensure the site is left clean and tidy, and a thorough inspection is carried out to confirm the quality of the work.

• We provide expert guidance on how to maintain your block-paved surface to ensure it remains in top condition for years to come.
