You may already be thinking about colours, styles and textures, or you may have a completely open mind. Either way, there’s plenty of information and advice available from this brochure, garden shows, lifestyle magazines or just browsing the web for ideas.
We’ve split our range into three categories to help you choose the products that suit your vision more easily.
You’ll see these colours and icons in different sections of this brochure, but of course these categories are only a starting point.
You may want to deliberately contrast contemporary and traditional in different parts of your garden or drive. You may have a period facade but a brand new extension at the rear of your house, so you may want a traditional feel at the front, but crisp linear contemporary products at the rear.

Your driveway is usually the first thing you see when approaching your house. You therefore want it to provide a statement about your home, to invite people in, as well as to provide easy access.
Our driveway paving product range will help you achieve all of these objectives – and can add real long term value to your home.
Our blocks come in different depths for different uses as follows:
Light usage: 50mm blocks for driveways, patios, and pathways – suited to normal family cars
Medium usage: 60mm blocks for adopted highways, hardstanding areas and other roads – suited for occasional delivery lorries
Heavy duty usage: 80mm blocks for heavy duty pavements, for instance for oil deliveries, refuse lorries etc
Selecting products to suit your lifestyleDRIVES Porcelain driveways
Did you know you can now have the beauty of porcelain flag paving on your driveway?
GeoCeramica® Bluestone has an elegant porcelain flag permanently bonded to a drainage mortar base. This 60mm thick paving combines beauty with strength, stability and drainage, meaning you can have the crisp, contemporary look of porcelain on your driveway!
Bluestone has been tried and tested for use on driveways where the density of porcelain makes it resistant to the staining resulting from vehicle use and gives fantastic aesthetics to any residential driveway – see pages 16-17 for further information.
Refined beautyExtremely durableTraditional installation methods possible Increased resistance to moss or algae growthEasy to remove tyre marks and oil drops
Water managementDid you know that homeowners have a legal obligation to avoid surface water draining onto public highways from their property?
If you are paving an area greater than 5m2, you will be responsible, regardless of whether it is a new or replacement driveway.
Brett can offer you a number of options to meet this responsibility without requiring planning permission. See pages 28-29 and 34-35 for further information.

Top tip: Omega is also available as a permeable paving range, See page 34.
Omega is our most popular block paving, partly due to the range of three thicknesses and a wide range of colour options, making it suitable for most projects. Its modern lines blend with almost any environment and develop a mature character over time.
Use Omega block paving with complementary kerbs, such as the High or Drivestyle Kerb, to create functional and attractive boundaries.

Your garden should suit your lifestyle. If you have green fingers, that may mean incorporating large planted areas, or minimal-maintenance, predominantly paved areas if you don’t. You may want to create the perfect ‘indoor/outdoor’ space for entertaining, or hidden pockets of tranquillity.
Texture, edge details and the plan size of the product you choose all play a significant role in design. A patio doesn’t have to use flag paving - smaller block products can be used to vary the sense of scale and add textural detail, and additional detail such as edging, stepping stones or decorative stones can also be used to highlight or separate parts of your garden.
Even the smallest areas can be enhanced by hard landscaping products, providing a sense of clear space, drawing focus to specific features, or providing colour and textural contrast.
Selecting products to suit your lifestyleGARDENS Pack options
Our garden paving is offered in a number of configurations to help you find the best options for your project.
Patio packsMixed size flags covering a set area in the same pack so that a number of attractive patterns and layouts can be achieved.

HOW TO LAYDRIVEWAYPAVINGThe professionals make laying block paving look easy, but with the right materials and some manual work it is not quite the major undertaking that you may have first thought. Follow this simple step by step example guide to laying a non-permeable driveway.
Hints & Tips: Have an eye on the weather. Installing block paving is extremely difficult in the rain due to its effect on the sands and aggregates. Therefore plan ahead and, if rain is likely, protect large areas either with plastic sheets or even a gazebo.
