Paved Drives in Dublin

A block paved drive in Dublin has to cope with Irish weather and a car on it every day, so the work starts underneath: the old surface comes up, the ground is dug out and a stone sub-base is compacted in layers before a single block goes down.

Homes in Dublin and nearby Dún Laoghaire, Tallaght, Finglas and Clondalkin suit block paving because it can match the brick or render of the house, with a contrasting border to frame the drive. We bring Kilsaran and Tobermore samples to the free site visit so you can see the colours in place.

How It Works

How Block Paving Is Laid

  1. Visit & Samples

    We measure up, check the levels and bring block samples so you can pick the colour and pattern.

  2. Dig Out

    The old drive is lifted and the ground is dug out to make room for a deep base.

  3. Sub-Base & Bed

    A stone sub-base is compacted in layers and topped with a screeded sand bed.

  4. Lay & Joint

    The blocks are laid, cut and edged, then jointing sand is brushed in and the drive compacted.

  5. Final Check Together

    We review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

How Do I Get a Price for Block Paving in Dublin?

Call 087 354 0893 or send the form with your Eircode. We arrange a FREE site visit in Dublin, look at the job and give you a clear price with no small print.

Which Block Paving Pattern Is the Strongest?

Herringbone. The blocks interlock at an angle, which spreads the load and resists cars turning on the drive. Basket-weave and stretcher bond suit paths and areas with lighter traffic, or can be used as borders.

Can Block Paving Be Repaired?

Yes. Because each block is laid separately, a sunken, cracked or stained area can be lifted, the bed relevelled and the same blocks or matching new ones put back.

What Is the Difference Between Block Paving & Cobblelock?

In practice, nothing. Cobblelock is the name many people in Ireland use for block paving. Both mean concrete paving blocks laid on a sand bed over a compacted base.
