Local considerations in Highbridge
On Highbridge's low-lying plots, planned falls and drainage stop water sitting in the laying course or running towards the house.
Older concrete and thin tarmac drives often need full removal so a proper MOT Type 1 sub-base can be built underneath.
Block paving lets individual blocks be lifted later for repairs or service access, which suits homes near the commercial areas.
Choose the right installation for your property
Full excavation and sub-base construction
Block paving depends on the groundworks underneath. We excavate to the right depth, install compacted MOT Type 1 in layers and set firm edge restraints before laying blocks.
Patterns, borders and block choices
Herringbone is normally the strongest driveway pattern. Borders, keylines and colour choices are planned around the property rather than added as an afterthought.
Drainage and long-term maintenance
Correct falls, ACO channels where needed, kiln-dried sand and final compaction help prevent sinking, spreading edges and standing water.
From survey to handover
- 1. Survey and agree the specification.
Check the existing base, dimensions, access, levels and drainage. Agree the finish and written quotation before work starts.
- 2. Prepare and install.
Carry out the agreed groundwork, base preparation, edging and drainage, then install the selected surface to its specification.
- 3. Protect and hand over.
Confirm when the surface can be used, taking account of the material and conditions, and explain cleaning and aftercare.
A qualifying full block paving installation normally receives 5 years' workmanship cover where Quantock controls the excavation, base, laying course, edge restraints and finished paving. Read the workmanship terms and exclusions.

Block Paving in Highbridge - common questions
Will block paving sink on Highbridge's soft ground?
Not if the excavation, sub-base and compaction are right. Sinking comes from shallow preparation or water sitting in the build-up, which proper drainage prevents.
Do you cover the Huntspills and Mark from Highbridge?
Yes. Highbridge, the Huntspills, Mark and the surrounding villages are all close to our base and regularly covered.
Can block paving be cleaned and resealed later?
Yes. It can be professionally cleaned, re-sanded and sealed to restore colour and joint stability.
