FAQ

Common questions

What block paving colours are available?

We offer a wide range of colours including charcoal, natural grey, buff, brindle, red, autumn gold and mixed blends. We bring physical samples to your Keynsham home so you can see how different colours look against your property's brickwork and surroundings.

What maintenance does block paving need?

Block paving is very low maintenance. We recommend an annual brush and wash to keep it looking fresh, and reapplying kiln-dried jointing sand if it washes out over time. For Keynsham properties, we also offer optional sealing treatments that enhance colour and inhibit weed growth.

Can block paving increase my Keynsham property's value?

A quality block paving driveway can add 5-10% to your property's value and significantly improves kerb appeal. In a desirable area like Keynsham, where a wide range from Victorian town centre homes to modern estates around Somerdale, a premium driveway is one of the best investments you can make in your home's exterior.

Is block paving suitable for Keynsham's climate?

Block paving is ideal for the Bristol area's climate. It handles heavy rain through permeable options and jointed gaps, withstands frost without cracking (unlike poured concrete surfaces), and performs reliably through the wet winters we experience in Keynsham and across BS31.
