Block Paving Driveways in Potters Bar

Potters Bar has some genuinely generous frontages, and that changes what a driveway can be. Where there is space for a car to turn, for planting down one side and for a proper approach to the front door, block paving lets you make something of it rather than just laying down somewhere to park. We install block paving driveways throughout Potters Bar, covering Oakmere, Little Heath, Dark Lane, Mutton Lane and the roads running off Southgate Road and the Great North Road. Larger driveways need more thought about falls, drainage and how the surface is built up, because a big area of paving shifts a lot of water when it rains. That is worked out before anything is laid, not afterwards. There is never a charge for a quote and no expectation that you take it any further. Ring us and we will book a time to come and look at the frontage properly.

Block paving is popular everywhere, but it comes into its own on the sort of frontages you find around Potters Bar. Here is why.

Room for Proper Design Detail

On a larger driveway there is space to do something beyond a plain rectangle. A twin banded edge in a second colour, a shift in laying pattern to mark where the cars go, a circle feature, or a curved edge that follows the line of the lawn all become realistic options. Small unit paving is the only driveway material that lets you do any of that.

Drainage Handled Across a Big Area

A large expanse of paving needs somewhere for water to go. Falls are set towards a channel drain or a soakaway before any blocks go down, and on a bigger frontage a permeable build up is often the neater answer because the water disappears straight through the surface instead of being pushed towards one corner of the garden.

Twenty Years and Counting

Get the groundwork right and a block driveway will still be doing its job two decades later. Most of that comes down to what sits underneath it, which is why we never cut the dig short. The blocks are dense, frost resistant and coloured all the way through, so nothing wears off the top over time.

  Amwell Driveways did an outstanding job on both my new driveway and the back fence. The team were organised, skilled, and clearly take real pride in their work. The driveway looks superb and the fence is solid, straight, and beautifully finished. Everything was completed on time and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. I’m genuinely impressed and would recommend them to anyone looking for quality workmanship.

  We are really pleased with our new resin and porcelain patio in our garden.  It was finished to a really high standard.  The team, who were very punctual and professional, worked hard and cleaned up really well after themselves when the work was done.  The whole operation was very smooth from Paul initially coming round to discuss the options and provide a quote, to Martin managing the team over the five days that they were there building our new patio. After my experience, I would highly recommend Amwell Driveways.

  We approached Amwell to do a design and deliver landscape project for our house.  The work involved stripping the existing area of overgrown trees, lawns and block paving drive from the front and back of our house.  These were replaced with a resin-bound drive , new patio, lawns and beds ready for planting. The design work was carried out by Paul Williams from Amwell.  He is a highly experienced and knowledgeable professional who was able to offer us advice and insights to achieve a better result and avoid costly mistakes.  He was not at all pushy and there was no hard sell.  Perfect. The work was done in less than 2 weeks and to a very high standard.  We are delighted with the end result and have no hesitation recommending Amwell.
