Block Paved Driveways in Altrincham and the surrounding area
Block paving has become a first choice for driveways, paths and patios around Altrincham, and it is not hard to see why. The blocks come in a wide range of sizes, colours and finishes, and they can be laid in anything from herringbone to stretcher bond, with a contrasting border picking out the edges. With that much to choose from, arriving at a drive that suits the brick and planting already on your property is straightforward.
It is a practical finish as well as a good-looking one. Block paving is cost-effective to lay and low maintenance once it is down, and because the blocks sit individually, a stained or damaged one can be lifted and replaced without disturbing the rest of the drive. Whole sections come up and go back the same way if anything underneath ever needs reaching.
What’s included
- Excavation and a compacted sub-base
- Edge restraints haunched in concrete
- Blocks laid to your chosen pattern and colour
- Whacked down and kiln-dried sand jointed
- A choice of block size, colour and laying pattern
How we do it
- 01
Survey and choose
We measure up and check the ground, and you settle on the block, the colour and the laying pattern.
- 02
Base and edges
We dig out, lay and compact the sub-base, and set the edge restraints to line and level.
- 03
Lay, compact and joint
We lay to pattern, compact the blocks, then brush in the jointing sand and finish the edges.

Why us
Why choose THB Contractors
We have been laying driveways and surfacing across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire for over 20 years, and we work in Altrincham regularly. You are trusting us to dig up the front of your house, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it helps to know how we work before you commit. We look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you see the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
We are based in Bolton and work right across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Altrincham and the WA14 postcodes are part of that patch, and we are there regularly rather than now and then. The villages around it are covered on the same basis: Dunham Town, High Legh, Over Tabley, Smithy Green and Peover Heath are all within reach.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have spent two decades laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and we have built our name on quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
We come out and look at the job first, then put the price in writing, so nothing surprises you once the work starts.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base for the ground we find on your job, not to a one-size dig-out.
The same people throughout
You deal with the same team all the way through, from the quote visit to the day we finish and clear the site.
Domestic and commercial
We take on everything from a single driveway to a full car park, and we price and plan each one the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
We price every Altrincham job after a free site visit, so what you get is a price for the work in front of us rather than a guess worked out from a description.
The main things that move the figure:
- The area and the laying pattern (some create more cuts and waste)
- The block chosen and any contrasting borders
- How much excavation and disposal the ground needs
- Access to the site for materials and machinery
