When resurfacing your driveway, block paving gives you a lot of creative freedom! Bricks are available in various colors and patterns that are suitable for block paving, including classic red bricks or modern grey bricks. Also, there are many other patterns available for laying these bricks! Block paving surpasses every other type of driveway material in terms of choice.
Durability…
Because of the incredibly robust blocks utilised, it is a material with a lengthy lifespan. It is durable, allowing your driveway to resist a lot while preventing wear and tear, which helps to contribute to your driveway’s cost-effectiveness. One of these bricks would require a lot of force to break!
Repairability…
The most frequent reason for block paving problems is having a loose brick or staining (often from a car), but this can be rectified quickly! Repairing the broken or discoloured brick is quite simple since you can practically pick out the damaged brick and replace them with new ones because it is made of separate blocks. A helpful suggestion would be to purchase more bricks than you will need and store them until you need to replace one. To ensure a consistent appearance, aged spare bricks are used in this technique, reducing the visibility of replacements.
Value of a property
Block paving using bricks is highly valued in comparison to other road materials, including gravel, as it increases a property’s value. This is particularly advantageous for homebuyers, as they can be confident that a block-paved driveway will last for decades without requiring significant maintenance, thus reducing their concerns. New driveways can increase property value.
