By allowing water to seep through its surface and into the ground beneath, permeable pavers help in replenishing groundwater reserves—a crucial aspect in regions prone to drought or water scarcity.

Also known as permeable, a porous pavement is simply a material that allows the free drainage of water through its surface and into the ground beneath.With the sub-base in place and compacted correctly the driveway surface can be laid. This will be in the region of 200-250mm (8-10 inches). This makes the total depth you have to dig out to be approximately 350-400mm (14-16 inches). For detailed information about how they work and are constructed, please read our project all about rainwater harvesting. Note: Finished grade may be inch above final elevation after compaction. This is to allow for minor settling. These terms are often heard when suds-compliant paving is being discussed, but which is correct and is there any difference?

Porous asphalt pavementdoes not require proprietary ingredients and does not require special paving equipment. General paving contractors typically have the necessary equipment to install porous asphalt.We strongly recommend against removing any well-performing spray foam insulation. Your home should be warmer and cheaper to run when insulated by a professional and this is an attractive feature for most buyers. Being lightweight, the pavers are easy to lay and once down can be filled with aggregate, gravel, soil and grass seed or mulch. The honeycomb structure of Porous Pavers reduces puddling and encourages rainwater to drain away. Designers developed porous paving systems so runoff would pass through the pavement into a stone base and into the soil to replenish groundwater supplies. With proper installation and maintenance, permeable paving allows for infiltration of up to 80% of annual runoff volume. Similar measures apply. These, however, apply to paving of any size between the house and any street, not just front gardens.
