Block Paved Driveways in Oldham and the surrounding area
Block paving earns its place in Oldham on how it wears as much as how it looks. The blocks are individually laid, so a cracked or oil-stained one lifts out and a new one goes in, with no patch showing afterwards. Beyond that there is a wide choice of sizes, colours and finishes, and a laying pattern to pick, so the drive can be matched to the brick and the stonework already on the house.
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
Before you let anyone dig up your frontage it helps to know how they operate. We quote from a proper look at the job, we build the base for the ground that is actually under there, and the people who price it are the people who lay it. That is how it has worked for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Oldham with it.
Our base is Bolton and we cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Oldham and the OL1 postcodes are regular ground, not an occasional trip. Chadderton, Royton, Shaw, Lees and Failsworth are covered on the same basis as the town.
Over 20 years’ experience
Over twenty years laying driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for work that lasts and sites left clean.
A written, itemised quote
You get the price in writing after we have seen it, itemised, so nothing about the cost changes once the job starts.
The base done properly
Nearly every failure begins below the surface, so the dig-out and sub-base are built for the ground we meet and the traffic it carries.
The same people throughout
The same team from the quote to the finish. No handing over to a crew you have never met.
Domestic and commercial
Driveways and commercial surfacing alike, both costed and planned the same careful way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Oldham quote follows a free site visit. Drainage and the state of what is underneath both move the price, and both need looking at rather than assuming.
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
