About Permeable Block Paving
Permeable paving systems allow water to drain through the gaps between the block paving surface, into the sub-base. This prevents water run-off and reduces the potential for flooding as water is collected and released in a controlled way into sewers or water courses.
Potential benefits of permeable paving include:
- Cost savings - lower construction costs
- Used with Mechanical Lay methods of installation, it is a practical alternative to traditional hard surfacing and drainage methods
- Low maintenance - simple routine maintenance and performance
- Flood protection - prevents against the effects of storm flood water
