Paving for Driveways, Patios & Paths

Paving services for Shercock

Whether you need a new driveway, a patio for summer barbecues, or a path to the shed, we cover it all. Our work starts with a solid sub-base, that’s key in Cavan’s clay soil. We dig down, add hardcore, and compact it properly. Then we lay the slabs or blocks with a sharp sand bed. If you have overhanging trees that could damage your new paving, we can also help with tree removal in Shercock to clear the area first. For those considering a similar project elsewhere, we offer paving in Mullagh as well, same high standard, different location.

Materials and Workmanship We Rely On

We use concrete flags, natural stone, block paving, and resin-bound gravel. Each has its place. Block paving is great for driveways, easy to repair if needed. Natural stone suits a more traditional look. We carry all the gear: plate compactors, mixers, diamond blades. We work year-round, but spring and autumn are best for fresh paving, fewer frosts and less rain.

  • Concrete flags: strong, affordable, many colours.
  • Natural stone: unique, lasts decades, needs sealing.
  • Block paving: interlocking, easy to replace if damaged.
  • Resin-bound: permeable, low maintenance, modern finish.

How long does a typical driveway last?

With proper base preparation and good drainage, a concrete flag driveway can last 25, 30 years. Block paving may need re-sanding every few years but lasts just as long.

Yes, we offer free no-obligation quotes. We come to your property, measure up, and discuss options before giving you a fixed price.

Can you pave over an existing concrete surface?

Sometimes, yes. We check the concrete for cracks and drainage. If it’s sound, we can lay new paving on top, saving on removal costs.

What’s the best time of year to get paving done?

Spring and autumn are ideal, the ground is workable but not too wet or frozen. We can pave in summer or mild winter days too.

More about our paving work

Shercock has its own conditions when it comes to paving. The ground, the weather exposure, and the type of homes in the area all play a part in how we approach the job. We have worked on plenty of projects around Shercock over the years, so we know what to expect. That local knowledge saves time and means fewer surprises once we start.

We do all kinds of paving work in Shercock. Some jobs are straightforward, others need a bit more thought. Either way, we price the work honestly and do not cut corners. If we hit a problem during the build, we stop and talk to you about it before carrying on. That is just how we work.

A lot of our work in Shercock comes from word of mouth. Someone sees a job we have done at a neighbour’s house or hears about us from a family member. That matters to us. We know that in a place like Shercock, reputation travels fast. So we make sure every job, big or small, gets the same attention to detail.

If you need other work done around the property, we can often combine it with the paving job and save you time. Lots of our customers in Shercock ask us to sort multiple things in one visit. It means less disruption and better value. Just let us know what you need and we will work out a plan that suits you.
