Uckfield Block Paving

A block paved drive lasts when the ground under it is right. We dig out to a firm formation, lay and compact a Type 1 sub-base in layers, then screed a sharp sand bed so every block sits level and the surface sheds water where it should.

Concrete blocks, clay brick pavers and natural stone setts are all available, so a Uckfield drive can suit the house rather than fight it. Kerb edging is haunched in concrete, which stops the outer rows creeping once cars start turning on them.

South East Groundworks is a family run firm based in Staplehurst, and Uckfield sits within the area we work in week in, week out. Over 20 years of laying paving, alongside work for Kent County Council and utility companies, means the groundwork beneath your drive gets the same attention as the pattern on top.

A small team project manages the job from start to finish, so you have one point of contact from the first visit to the final sweep.

Not every tired Uckfield drive needs replacing. Where blocks have sunk, rocked loose or been lifted by roots, we take up the affected area, put right the base beneath, and relay the original blocks or matched new ones.

Paving that is sound but grubby can often be brought back with a clean and fresh jointing sand. If the real problem is a failed sub-base across the whole drive, we will say so plainly, and you can weigh a repair against a relay.
