Paving & Finishing
We visit your property in Mulgrave or surrounding eastern suburbs to inspect ground levels, soil stability, and access points.
You receive a clear project plan detailing sub-base specs, material choices, drainage layout, and installation timelines.
Excavation and compaction of dense aggregate sub-bases establish the necessary structural support and drainage channels.
Pavers are laid with precise joint alignment, edge restraints secured, and final jointing compounds applied.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right paving material?
What site preparation is required before laying?
Material choice depends on traffic requirements, sun exposure, and architectural styling. Natural stone offers organic variation, while engineered concrete pavers provide uniform color consistency.
Proper preparation involves excavating topsoil to sub-grade depth, compacting crushed rock sub-bases, and setting up screeded bedding sand or mortar beds for structural stability.
Can existing paving be replaced or upgraded?
How does paving integrate with existing landscaping?
Yes. Existing worn pavers or damaged surfaces can be removed, ground levels re-established, and new hardscaping laid over fresh compacted sub-bases.
We design paved edges with custom borders, garden restraints, and matching step treads that blend smoothly into lawns, garden beds, and retaining walls.
