Block Paved Driveways in Stockport and the surrounding area
Getting a new drive to sit comfortably against an older Stockport house usually comes down to the colour of the block. The range runs from warm buffs and brindles through to charcoals and greys, in several sizes and surface textures, and laid in anything from herringbone to a basket weave. That is a lot of room to work with, which is why block paved driveways keep being the answer on properties where a flat, single colour would look wrong.
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
You are handing someone the front of your property for a few days, so how they work matters. We look at the job before we price it, we build the base to suit the ground rather than to a set depth, and the team that quotes is the team that lays. That has been the way for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Stockport with it.
We work out of Bolton, covering Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Stockport and the SK1 postcodes fall inside that comfortably, and we are there regularly. Heaton Chapel, Heaton Norris, Edgeley, Davenport and Reddish are covered on the same terms.
Over 20 years’ experience
More than twenty years of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with a reputation for solid work and a tidy site.
A written, itemised quote
After the visit the price arrives in writing and itemised, so the cost is settled before anyone lifts a spade.
The base done properly
The base is what fails first, so we size the dig-out and the sub-base for the ground in front of us and the weight going on it.
The same people throughout
The same people right through, from the day we price it to the day we sweep up.
Domestic and commercial
From one driveway to a full commercial car park, approached and costed the same way.
The price
What affects the price
Every Stockport quote comes after a free site visit. On a sloping plot the falls and the drainage change the work, and those are things to measure rather than estimate.
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
