Block Paving — Frequently Asked Questions

Block paving is a durable surface made from individual concrete or clay blocks laid in patterns on a compacted sub-base. It's one of the most popular driveway and patio surfaces in Ireland due to its durability, drainage and repairability.
Cobblelock is the common Irish term for the classic interlocking concrete block paving popular since the 1990s. Block paving is the broader category including tegula, tumbled, clay and premium concrete blocks. All cobblelock is block paving but not all block paving is cobblelock.
Block paving costs €65–€100 per m² installed depending on the block type and site preparation required. Premium tegula or clay pavers cost more. For an average 50m² driveway budget €3,250–€5,000.
The most common patterns are herringbone (45° or 90°), basketweave and stretcher bond. Herringbone is the strongest pattern for driveways as it locks the blocks together under load. We'll show you pattern options at the quote stage.
Quality block paving on a proper sub-base lasts 30+ years. Individual blocks can be replaced if damaged — a major advantage over tarmac. The key to longevity is a well-compacted sub-base and correct edge restraints.
Yes — this is one of the biggest advantages of block paving. Individual blocks can be lifted and replaced without affecting the surrounding area. Sunken areas can be re-levelled by lifting blocks, adjusting the bedding sand and re-laying.
We can apply a block paving sealant on completion if requested. Sealing protects against weed growth in joints, oil stains and weathering. It's optional but recommended for longevity.
We install block paving across County Dublin, County Kildare and County Meath — 135+ towns and villages. Find your area on our locations page.
