Large Block Paved Driveway and Path in Rochdale
We recently completed this extensive 120 square meter driveway transformation in Rochdale, turning a tired and uneven concrete space into a stunning, modern entrance to the property. The entire project, from excavation to the final touches, was completed in just 7 days.
Our Process
As you can see from the “before” images, the existing driveway was dated and worn. The initial phase of the project involved breaking up and removing all of the old concrete and vegetation, a significant task that required careful and thorough site clearance. Our team then meticulously prepared the groundwork, leveling the entire 120m² area to create the perfect foundation for the new surface. This preparation stage is crucial for ensuring a long-lasting and durable finish.
Before and After:
Laying The Block Paving
With the foundations set, we began laying the block paving. The client chose a stylish combination of Brindle and Charcoal blocks, which we laid in a classic 45° herringbone pattern. This design adds a sense of depth and character to the large space. To ensure a seamless and practical finish, we integrated two recess manhole covers, hiding them from view while keeping them fully accessible.
Finishing Touches
Beyond the main driveway, the project also included a new block-paved garden path and a step, creating a cohesive look that flows from the front of the house right through to the garden. The finished result is a clean, expansive, and highly durable driveway that dramatically enhances the property’s curb appeal.
Final Result:
The completed project has dramatically transformed the entrance to this Keighley home, turning the driveway and lane into a standout feature. It now boasts superb aesthetics with a clean, professional finish across the large area. Thanks to the innovative honeycomb grid system, the surface offers exceptional durability, remaining stable and free of ruts. Furthermore, the combination of the weed membrane and grids drastically reduces upkeep, making it a low maintenance solution. The construction also allows rainwater to drain away naturally, preventing puddles. This project perfectly demonstrates how modern materials and expert construction can turn a problematic driveway into a valuable and high attractive asset.
