We’ve detailed some of our favourite benefits:** ****Durable:**** Concrete is one of the most durable materials out there, with its composition offering incredible performance benefits. With the right maintenance, concrete block pavers should last at least 20 years, so you can walk and drive over your surface for years without damage. - ## Benefits of Concrete Block Paving **Permeable:** Some might suggest that concrete pavers can’t be permeable however our manufacturing partners have developed innovative ways to combat this issue, allowing water to easily drain form your laid surface. By using subtle projections or nibs, space is created between each block paver to encourage drainage. - ## Benefits of Concrete Block Paving **Budget Friendly:** Due to its popularity, concrete pavers are produced by a number of leading manufacturers, making them readily available at a number of price points. From traditional dimensions, through to curved shapes and linear options that rival clay pavers in their aesthetic impact, let our teams know your budget and we’ll come back with recommendations and a quote. - ## Benefits of Concrete Block Paving **Aesthetically Versatile:** Spanning the colour spectrum, concrete block pavers don’t have to be grey. Instead, we’re able to supply a wide range of colours, tones and textures to suit your vision. Depending on your location, these variations can help blend your project into its local architecture or create a striking contrast. Additionally, we’re able to source a wide variety of sizes and shapes, from square to linear formats, so that you can lay interesting patterns and create unique details on your landscaping project. - ## Benefits of Concrete Block Paving **Recyclable:** At the end of their lifespan, there are many ways in which you can either recycle or reuse your concrete pavers. Concrete pavers are recyclable through a number of schemes. Once broken down and cleaned, pavers can be taken to a local recycling facility so none of the product goes to waste. You could also look to reuse any old pavers in other applications such as garden edging, a new pathway or as drainage in you plant pots or beds. Alternatively, if you have excess product that you won’t be using, a local tradesperson or DIYer may be interested in taking them off your hands. - ![6 D9 A6550](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/6D9A6550.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6326](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/6D9A6326.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6350](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/6D9A6350.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 269133257](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/25865/AdobeStock_269133257.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 223972056](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/25864/AdobeStock_223972056.jpg) 01 / 06 - ## Laying Patterns As well as using colour and texture to personalise a landscape, you can also change the look and feel of a space by using different laying patterns. Click though our laying patterns for further inspiration. We've included: - Stretcher Bond - Stack Bond - Random - Basket Weave - Herringbone - ## Stretcher Bond If you’re familiar with bricks then you’re likely familiar with the stretcher bond. This is one of the most popular laying patterns for any material of paver as the staggered formation, with each row offset by half the length of a slab, creates a classic look. No matter the size of your slab, this pattern is easy to install. - ## Stack Bond More popular in paving than brickwork, the stack bond is when pavers are laid in column and row alignment, with no overlap of the paver. This creates a neat and modern appearance and that is also very easy to install when on site. For the stack bond, you will need slabs that are uniform in size to ensure straight lines aren’t interrupted. - ## Random The laying of pavers in a random formation means there is no distinct pattern to follow. Where some patterns offer a more orderly appearance, the random pattern provides a more organic and naturally occurring look. Though this pattern comes without set rules, it’s useful to preplan a random pattern to ensure you’ve distributed sizes evenly across your space and cross joints are avoided. - ## Basket Weave The basketweave pattern is most often used with pavers of smaller dimensions however a larger linear slab could also be employed for a large format, contemporary version of this pattern. Created by laying pairs of pavers in alternating directions, the basketweave pattern generates a grid like format that resembles its namesake. - ## Herringbone The herringbone pattern involves laying slabs or block pavers at a 45° angle, which results in a zigzag formation. Due to the nature of this pattern, slab sizes tend to be at least twice as long as they are wide so, 100 x 200, 300 x 600 or 300 x 900. The V shape created results in a rather durable surface, which is why we often find it on driveways and walkways. - ![Adobe Stock 477035983](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/26925/AdobeStock_477035983.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 269133257](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/26945/AdobeStock_269133257_2023-09-25-123750_uyuk.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6392](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/Concrete-Slabs/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/6D9A6392.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 348166877](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/Concrete-Slabs/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/26997/AdobeStock_348166877.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 85826038](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/Concrete-Slabs/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/27029/AdobeStock_85826038.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6340](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/Concrete-Slabs/_638x700_crop_center-center_none/6D9A6340.jpg) ## Your questions answered What concrete paver dimensions do you offer? We offer a large variety of concrete paver dimensions, from 50mm to 1200mm however generally our most common sizes for block pavers are 50mm, 60mm or 80mm in depth and between 100mm and 250mm in length or width. This page talks specifically about out concrete block paving however we also have a page dedicated to our concrete slabs, if you’re looking for larger and slimmer formats. Where can I use concrete block pavers? Concrete block pavers lend themselves to applications across many construction sectors. From private residential projects to large scale education or commercial schemes, these hard wearing and attractive products can provide numerous benefits. We’ve seen successful installation and long-term use on driveways, patios and public walkways, and hope our gallery gives you project inspiration and ideas for how to use your pavers. If you’re unsure, our teams are on hand to offer guidance. How does concrete block paving differ from concrete paving slabs? The main difference between the two products is their dimensions. Where paving blocks will be thicker, a slab is the thinner option. Both can be large in terms of width and length however slabs are more commonly produced this way and blocks are usually closer to the size of a brick. There may also be a cost difference to these two options, depending on the finish you’re looking for. Can you supply special shape or kerb paving? Absolutely, if you’re looking to use edging, kerb or cap paving we can help you source these products in suitable dimensions and colours to match your chosen paving. These useful additions can ensure the structural integrity of your paving surface. Their durability supports heavy foot traffic, while their shape will help direct rainwater away from your project and towards better drainage. - ![6 D9 A6368](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/6D9A6368.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 324308256](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/25543/AdobeStock_324308256.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6343](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/6D9A6343.jpg) - ![Concrete block pavers supplied to public path.](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/25542/AdobeStock_289011603.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6330](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/6D9A6330.jpg) - ![Adobe Stock 143618103](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/25541/AdobeStock_143618103.jpg) - ![6 D9 A6323](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/Products/Landscaping/concrete-block-pavers/_636x414_fit_center-center_none/6D9A6323.jpg) 01 / 07 A number of our businesses are able to supply concrete block pavers, plus a range of high-quality landscaping products. - [![](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/logos/Alfiam.svg)](https://brickability.co.uk/businesses/alfiam-building-supplies) OfficeDepotShowroom - [![](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/logos/_192xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/222/BRICKMONGERSwessex_ONBLACK_GROUP_LOGO_2019_RGB-1.jpg)](https://brickability.co.uk/businesses/brick-mongers-wessex) OfficeDepot - [![](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/logos/Brickability.svg)](https://brickability.co.uk/businesses/brickability) OfficeDepotShowroom - [![](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/logos/_192xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/234/CPG_Building.jpg)](https://brickability.co.uk/businesses/cpg-building-supplies) OfficeDepot - [![](https://brickability.co.uk/uploads/images/logos/_192xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/240/BrickMatching.jpg)](https://brickability.co.uk/businesses/matching-brick) OfficeDepotShowroom ## Looking for further design and technical guidance?
