Front Garden Block Paving Transformation: Trentham

This job came in from a customer in Trentham, Stoke-on-Trent who wanted their tired front lawn replaced with a smart block paved area.

Project Overview

The existing front garden was a small patch of lawn bordered by tired, stained concrete slabs. The brief was to replace the lawn with a smart block paved area that suits the modern grey cladding on the house, with new boundary fencing to frame it and a properly compacted base underneath.

The team started by stripping the lawn and topsoil back to a clean, level formation. From there the fencing line was set out and the area prepared for our block paving installation.

Project Timeline

How we completed this transformation

1
The lawn and topsoil were stripped back to a clean, level formation, and the old edging was cleared out of the way. Everything was dug out to the correct depth ready for the new sub-base, with the waste loaded straight off site.
2
Concrete posts and gravel boards went in along the boundary, with feather-edge fence panels fixed between them to frame the new space. A geotextile membrane was laid down before the sub-base went in.
3
The sub-base was laid and compacted in layers with a plate compactor, then screeded level ready for the blocks. Grey block paving was laid with a charcoal border, cut in neatly to the house, the fence and the existing path, then jointed and compacted.

The Result

A tired patch of lawn is now a clean, hard-wearing block paved area with a contrasting charcoal border that sits well against the house. The compacted sub-base underneath means the paving stays level and stable, and the new fencing gives the front a tidy, finished boundary.

Really pleased with the work carried out on our driveway by Ted and his team. . The whole job was completed to a high standard, with great attention to detail and a fantastic finish. The team were professional, friendly and hardworking throughout, and everything was left clean and tidy. The new driveway has completely transformed the front of the house, and we couldn't be happier with the result. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have their driveway done. Excellent workmanship and great value for money. Thank you for a brilliant job!
