FAQ's

What Is Block Paving?

What Is Screeding?

Screeding is the process of levelilng and smoothing out concrete or sand to create a flat and even surface, essential for paving and flooring.

How Do Vacuum Lifters Work?

Vacuum lifters use suction to lift and handle heavy materials, reducing the physical strain on workers and improving safety and efficiency.

How Do I Block Pave?

Preparation: Excavate the area to the required depth, and ensure the base is firm, level, and well-compacted.

Base Layer: Lay a sub-base of crushed stone or aggregate and compact it thoroughly. This provides a stable foundation for the paving blocks.

Bedding Layer: Spread a layer of sharp sand over the compacted sub-base. Level the sand to create an even surface.

Laying the Blocks: Start laying the blocks from a straight edge, such as a building or existing paving, working towards the edges. Place each block tightly against the next, ensuring they are level.

Cutting: Use a block splitter or saw to cut blocks to fit around the edges or obstacles. 

Edging: Install edge restraints, such as concrete kerbs or edge stones, to secure the perimeter of the paving and prevent movement.

Compaction and Jointing: Once all blocks are laid, compact the entire surface with a plate compactor to ensure they are firmly set in place. Fill the joints between blocks.
