Block Paving in Keighley

Block paving can look great as a driveway. It is an elegant and functional answer to your driveway and can give your home great kerb appeal. Whether you want a classic herringbone design or something a bit different, there are plenty of block paving options and materials available to you. The bricks used in block paving are manufactured from clay commonly, but some are made up of different composite materials. Among the main benefits to block paving is that if a few of the bricks get damaged over time, they can be replaced easily. It also means that it's easier to perform work under the top of paving without leaving a mark. The most common pattern that driveway companies lay is the herringbone pattern because it has the strongest interlock, which makes it a great choice for driveways. The herringbone pattern is created by the tradesperson by setting the blocks at 45 degrees or 90 degrees to the perpendicular. Both types of herringbone design create a stylish and interesting look for your driveway that will make your home look fantastic to buyers.
