Commercial paving

The condition of your parking area tells customers how you run your business. A well-kept, crack-free surface also stops the slow damage water does to the base underneath.

Industrial paving

Industrial yards carry far heavier loads than a driveway. Where 30-ton articulated trucks turn on the paving, the sub-base, the paver thickness and the edge restraints must all be designed for it. We plan the area for the traffic it will actually carry.

Drainage first

Water destroys paving from underneath. Every paving job starts with how surface and ground water will leave the area — badly drained paving around a pool or a building can damage the foundations themselves.

Who uses this service

Shopping centres and office parks, Factories and logistics yards, Body corporates and homeowners.

Questions we get asked

Which paver is best for a truck yard?

Thicker interlocking concrete pavers on a properly compacted, designed sub-base. We specify the thickness once we know the vehicles and turning areas.

Do you offer paving maintenance?

Yes. Re-levelling sunken areas, replacing broken pavers, weed and joint treatment, and resealing are available once-off or on a maintenance package.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. We inspect the site, photograph the problems and send a written quote at no charge.

How do payments work?

For private and smaller jobs we ask for a 50% deposit on acceptance and the balance on completion and sign-off. For corporate and government clients we work to your purchase-order and payment terms.
