Driveway paving — Tiler

Describe the vehicles, parking layout and current driveway surface. Provide photographs of access, slopes, drainage and adjoining thresholds. Identify the proposed paving product where known; ask for confirmation of vehicle suitability rather than relying on the word tile.

Service scope

Installation of paving intended for vehicle access and parking, corresponding to the catalogue label Driveway paving tiles. The actual unit may be a vehicle-suitable paving product rather than an ordinary floor tile; load suitability, base design, drainage and edge restraint require a defined system.

What is normally included

  • Assessment of driveway surfacing requirements
  • Installation of specified vehicle-suitable paving
  • Coordination of drainage, edges and thresholds

What is not included

  • Assuming pedestrian patio tiles can carry vehicle traffic
  • Unverified base dimensions or public-highway permissions

Typical tasks

  • Review vehicle use and access layout
  • Assess existing base and drainage information
  • Specify the agreed paving and edge system
  • Install the authorised driveway package
  • Handover the completed surface and use restrictions

What to include in your brief

  • Vehicle types and intended use
  • Driveway plan and area
  • Product preference or specification
  • Existing base and drainage condition
  • Access, thresholds and edge details

Choosing the right professional

Compare the complete load-suitable system and site preparation. Ask how drainage and edge restraint are included, and treat public access alterations or local approvals as separate matters requiring verification.

Important considerations

  • An unsuitable pedestrian product may not suit vehicle loads
  • Changes in levels can affect drainage and access
