Paving, Coping Stones & Pier Caps

Paving is what defines how an outdoor space is used. Whether it’s a driveway, patio or pathway, these are the surfaces people walk on, park on and build around. It’s also where everything starts to come together, levels, edges and finishes all need to work properly so the area not only looks right but performs over time.

Our range covers block paving, slabs, edging, kerbs and finishing details like coping stones and pier caps used across garden and driveway projects.

How Our Range Of Paving Materials Works Together

Block Paving vs Slabs

Block paving is typically used for driveways and areas that need to handle weight and movement. Slabs are more commonly used for patios and pathways where a cleaner, uniform finish is needed.

Edging & Kerbs

Edging and kerbs do more than define the space — they hold everything in place. Without them, paving can shift over time.

Coping & Finishing Details

Coping stones and pier caps are used to finish walls and pillars. They protect the structure from water while giving a clean, finished edge.

Getting Levels Right

Most paving issues come down to poor preparation underneath. The finish only works if the base is solid and levels are set properly before anything is laid.

FAQ’s:

What’s better for a driveway — block paving or slabs?

Block paving is generally preferred for driveways because it handles movement and weight better than standard paving slabs.

Do I need edging for a patio or paved area?

Yes. Edging helps keep the paving in place and prevents movement over time, especially around the perimeter.

What’s the difference between once and twice weathered coping stones?

Once weathered coping stones slope in one direction, while twice weathered stones slope both sides, allowing water to run off evenly.
