Block Paving in Mirfield

Block paving can look good as a driveway. It is a stylish and functional solution to your driveway and will give your home great kerb appeal. Whether you want a classic herringbone design or something a little different, there are plenty of block paving options and materials available to you. The bricks found in block paving are most commonly made of clay, but some are made up of different composite materials. One of the main benefits to block paving is that if a few of the bricks get damaged over time, they can easily be replaced. It also means that it's simpler to perform work under the surface of the paving without leaving a mark. The most common pattern that driveway companies lay is the herringbone pattern since it has the strongest interlock, which makes it a fantastic 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 appealing look for your driveway that can make your home look fantastic to potential buyers.

Mirfield

Mirfield is a small twon and civil parish in Kirklees in the English county of West Yorkshire. From 1894 to 1974, the town was an urban district in the West Riding of Yorkshire till it eventually became incorporated into the Metropolitan Borough of Kirklees. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a population of around 19563. Throughout the 18th century, a canal was built throughout the town that connected the River Calder with other rivers in the area. There are various notable landmarks spread throughout the town. St. Mary's Church was the town's first church, going back to the 13th century. Even though restoration work happened on the structure in 1826, it was determined that is was not adequate to cater for the increasing population, triggering the development of strategies for a brand-new church. Designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott, the new church was developed on the site of Castle Hall, a mansion the home of the families of Mirfields, Hetons and Beaumonts. Mirfield is also home to the College of the Resurrection, which is a Church of England theological college. Rowan Williams, who eventually came to be the Archbishop of Canterbury, was a lecturer at the college between 1975 and 1977, and it is the place where Archbishop Trevor Huddleston spent his last days. The canal that runs through the town forms a segment of the Calder and Hebble Navigation. The canal's construction resulted in the advancement and establishment of a number of markets in Mirfield, with the textiles and boat yards as some examples. Although the canal no longer has an economic use, it is often used by recreational users. For all your house upgrades, make sure to make use of reliable contractors in Mirfield to make certain of quality.

FAQs

how much to block pave a drive?

One thing you should know about block paving a drive is that it can be very expensive depending on a number of factors such as the materials to be incorporated, block paving pattern, labour cost as well as the size of the drive in question. However, before you get started it’s always a good idea to obtain multiple quotes to compare the prices and select the most reasonable quote. Here, we’ve provided a breakdown of the block paving cost to ensure that you’ll not get ripped off.

There are three main types of block paving which includes clay blocks, concrete blocks as well as natural stone. If you were to go for complex block paving patterns and extras such as drainage solutions and edging, you may have to pay a significantly higher price. The size of your drive is also a major determinant of your block paving cost. What’s more? The materials you need as well as the contractors you select will all play a key role in the final cost of block paving your drive.

The material cost for the three types of block paving includes: Clay block £70 to £100 per m2, concrete blocks £20 to £60 per m2 and natural stone £50 to £105 per m2. To calculate your total material cost, you’ll need to determine the size of your drive.

The cost of labour for installing block paving is usually within the range of £50 to £100 per square metre. In certain cases, you may also have some waste removal needs. If you’re going to hire a specialist that’ll take a day or two of labour to get the job done, it’ll cost about £150 to £200 per day.

Other additional block paving costs include: hardcore £300, blocks and edgings £1,700, sharp sand £250. kiln-dried sand £250 and skip hire £500.

can you lay block paving on top of concrete?

Can You Lay Block Paving On Top Of Concrete?

The replacement or improvement of your driveway is unarguably one of the most expensive projects you can undertake in the exterior of your home. When done by a true professional the results can be impressive and visually appealing, however you’d have to pay huge bucks to have this done. This is exactly the situation with block paving as it is not only time consuming, but also a lot more expensive when compared to other types of driveway.

A large chuck of this cost is associated with the removal of the existing driveway. So assuming your old driveway is concrete, can you simply pave over the existing concrete? If yes, will it save you money? The simple and short answer is yes. It’s in fact advisable to pave over concrete as this will not only add around 20% to your home’s value, but also make it look a lot more attractive and pleasing to the eye.

However, there are some problems associated with block paving over concrete. It may be better to remove the concrete in situations whereby the base is substandard. For instance, if the ground underneath the concrete is failing, there’ll most definitely be problems.

Also, there’ll be some issues with settling (not even the cracks). If your concrete is dropping little amounts every year, these can affect the blocks and ultimately lead to dropping of some sections of the block paving in such a way that they’ll no longer be on the same level as the other blocks. Giving a rise to the possibility of drainage issues, tripping hazard and lots more.

Other issues that may crop up can be triggered as a result of using the wrong size block height as well as totally ignoring or overlooking the undulations of the concrete.

When's the best time to get driveway work done?

Driveway work is usually done in the warmer half of the year. This is partly to avoid bad weather. If you want to get ahead and avoid waiting for a contractor to be free, you should try getting in touch with a professional in the early spring so a date can be booked for install as soon as practically possible.

What materials can I use to surface my driveway?

The most commonly used driveway surfacing materials are gravel, asphalt, concrete and paving - which can be block, slabbed or patten imprinted. Take a look at our product information pages to help you decide which one to use and which one will look best for your driveway.
