Paving & Driveways — Southwark 5031

Paving and Driveways for Southwark Properties, SA 5031

For a Southwark address, paving and driveway work starts with the site rather than the product. Southwark is roughly 2.86 km north-west of the city, and what the ground and the access look like there decide the scope before anything is priced.

What Southwark is built on

What the Southwark site visit looks at

Southwark is 2.86 km north-west of the Adelaide CBD and inside the 60 km service area. Access to the work area, what sits under the existing surface, and how the block drains are all checked at the address before anything is priced. The sub-base and the falls decide whether the surface stays flat, not the paver on top.

How it goes

The build sequence at Southwark

Every job follows the same sequence, and the sequence is what makes the finished work hold up. Driveways and paved areas built from the ground up: excavation to design depth, compacted road base in controlled layers, screeded bedding sand, pavers laid to string lines and concrete edge restraint so the field cannot spread.

  1. 01

    The old surface is broken out and removed

  2. 02

    The area is excavated to design depth

  3. 03

    Road base goes in and is compacted in layers

  4. 04

    Bedding sand is screeded flat over the compacted base

  5. 05

    Pavers are laid to string lines and the agreed pattern

  6. 06

    Edges are cut and haunched, then the joints are swept in

Why AOI

Scope and sequence, not guesswork

Paving and Driveways at Southwark is priced from a written scope that lists what is included before anything is cut, dug or poured. The same team that scopes the work builds it, so the plan that is approved is the plan that gets built.

Common in Southwark

What to expect on a Southwark block

The same handful of problems turn up again and again on this kind of work. Each one changes the scope, and each is priced as its own line rather than buried in a rate.

  1. 01

    Dips at the wheel tracks where the base was too thin

  2. 02

    Pavers that rock because the bedding was never screeded flat

  3. 03

    Joints washed out where there is no edge restraint

  4. 04

    Water running toward the house because the falls were not set

  5. 05

    An old surface that has cracked and lifted
