Block Paving Driveways in Bexleyheath, DA6
Few surfaces add kerb appeal like a well-laid block paved drive. Because each block is individual, you can mix colours, add borders and choose a pattern that suits the style of your home in Bexleyheath.
Most of the problems people see with block paving (sinking, weeds and rocking blocks) come down to a poor base. That’s where we spend our time, so the finished drive stays level.
Block paving styles and options
We lay concrete block paving in a wide range of colours and finishes, from standard rectangular blocks in herringbone or basketweave to tumbled and textured blocks for a more aged look. Contrasting borders, banding and circle features can all be added. Permeable block paving is also available where drainage is a concern or the rules on paving front gardens apply.

Local block paving specialists in Bexleyheath
Block paving works well on Bexleyheath’s interwar semis. A herringbone drive with a contrasting border is a smart, practical upgrade that suits the brick and bay windows of these homes. Many front gardens here are just big enough for one or two cars, so we plan the layout carefully around steps, meters and boundary walls. Where the front garden is being paved over, we can use permeable blocks or add drainage into a planted area to comply with the front garden rules. We cover Bexleyheath, Barnehurst, Welling, Bexley Village and Sidcup.
Bexleyheath sits on the A2 corridor between our Kent base and south-east London, so it’s an easy run for our team and one of the areas we cover regularly.

Block Paving Driveways in Bexleyheath: FAQs
Will a block paved drive in Bexleyheath need planning permission?
Not if it's permeable or drains into a permeable area within your property. If more than 5 square metres of front garden is paved with non-permeable blocks draining onto the road, you'd need planning permission, so we design around that.
How long does a new block paved driveway take?
Most average-sized driveways take three to five working days, depending on the size, access and how much excavation is needed.
Why do some block paved drives sink?
Sinking is almost always caused by too little sub-base, poor compaction or no proper edge restraint. We excavate to the right depth and compact the base in layers to prevent it.
Can block paving be laid with a slope for drainage?
Yes. We lay all driveways with a fall away from the house and, where needed, fit channel drains or soakaways.
Do you offer permeable block paving?
Yes. Permeable block paving allows water to soak through the joints into a specially designed base, which can avoid the need for extra drainage.
Do you cover Bexleyheath and the surrounding area?
Yes. We work across DA6 and DA7, including Barnehurst, Welling, Bexley Village, Blendon, Upton. Our base is in Meopham, about 11 miles away, and site visits and quotes are free.
