Proper drainage is a key ingredient in our successful block paving projects in Essex. At AshBon Contracts, we understand that without effective drainage, even the most beautiful paving can quickly fall victim to water damage. We start by conducting a comprehensive site survey to assess the existing conditions, including soil type, slope, and any potential water flow issues. Our team then designs a bespoke drainage solution tailored to your property, which typically involves preparing a robust sub-base and installing a layer of sharp sand that facilitates water movement. We also consider the layout of the pavers, ensuring that they are installed with slight gaps and a gentle slope to direct water away from your home. In some cases, we incorporate additional drainage features such as channels or kerb profiles to further enhance water runoff. This careful planning and execution not only prevents puddles and erosion but also prolongs the lifespan of your block paving. With our expertise, you can enjoy a stunning, durable outdoor space that stays dry and safe, no matter what the Essex weather brings.
