Block Paved Driveways in Ashton-under-Lyne and the surrounding area
Block paving gives a drive a bit of structure, which is the main reason it keeps getting chosen around Ashton-under-Lyne. The blocks are laid to a pattern rather than poured, so a border course or a change of colour can mark out where the car goes and where the path runs. There is a wide choice of block sizes, colours and finishes to pick from before any of that is set out.
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
It is reasonable to ask how a contractor works before they dig up your frontage. We price from a proper look at the job, we build the base for the ground that is actually there, and the people who quote are the people who lay it. That is how it has been for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Ashton-under-Lyne with it.
Our base is in Bolton and we work across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Ashton-under-Lyne and the OL6, OL7 and SK16 postcodes are regular ground for us. Dukinfield, Droylsden, Audenshaw, Stalybridge and Mossley are covered on the same basis.
Over 20 years’ experience
Twenty years and more laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, with a reputation for solid workmanship and clean sites.
A written, itemised quote
You get the cost in writing after we have been out, itemised, so nothing shifts once we begin.
The base done properly
The base is where it starts to go wrong, so we build it for the ground we meet rather than a standard dig-out.
The same people throughout
One team from the quote through to the finish, with nobody handed on.
Domestic and commercial
Driveways and commercial surfacing both, planned and priced the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
A free site visit comes before every Ashton-under-Lyne quote. Gradient changes how the work has to be done, and it is not something to price 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
