Block Paving Driveways
Hard-wearing block paving driveways laid properly, with the right sub-base and falls, for a surface that stays flat for years.
Learn moreFormby sits among pinewoods and dunes on the Sefton coast, well known for its red squirrel colony and National Trust coastline, and the sandy, free-draining ground here is genuinely different to work with than the clay-heavy soils found further into Merseyside. That natural drainage is an advantage for most surfaces, though we still build a proper compacted sub-base rather than assuming sand alone will hold a driveway's shape long-term. Formby's mix of substantial detached houses and village-centre properties both suit resin-bound and block paving well, and several streets near the village centre call for a more considered material choice given the area's conservation status.
