Well Laid Paving Perth lays brick paved driveways right across the Perth metro area — new drives, replacements over paving that has sunk or spread, widenings, crossovers and multi-unit sites. Marc Radaic measures and quotes every one himself, and we never sub-contract: Marc is on site from the first quote to the last paver.
Built so it doesn’t move
A brick driveway carries a car through interlock, not as a slab, so everything that keeps it flat is underneath the pavers — a properly compacted base, the right bedding sand, and a cemented edge around the full perimeter.
That last one is invisible once the job is finished, and it is the failure Marc gets called out to most often. Without enough cement haunching at the edge, the outer course creeps outward under the weight of a car until the joints open and the sand washes out. We cement the full perimeter of every driveway we lay, not just the crossover. On a replacement the pavers come up first, because what failed is nearly always underneath them.
The full method, council specification by council specification: how we build a driveway that stays flat.
Crossovers and council approval
The crossover is the strip between your boundary and the road kerb. It sits on council land, it needs a permit, and every Perth council specifies it differently — paver rating, width, the angle it meets the kerb. We read the current specification for your suburb before quoting, and we pave the crossover with the same crew on the same job so the levels run from your garage to the kerb without a step.
Council by council: what your council requires for a crossover.
Choosing pavers
Clay or concrete, and the pattern matters structurally where cars turn and brake. Whatever the budget, we can recommend a style and colour that suits the house — on a driveway, usually a light field with a darker contrasting border. Compared side by side: brick, concrete and liquid limestone.
Where we’ve worked
Well Laid Paving Perth has laid driveways in Yokine, Forrestfield, Guildford, Spearwood, Gosnells and Nollamara — house drives and shared drives alike, including a six-unit complex in Nollamara and a five-dwelling site in Gosnells. All of them are captioned in the driveway paving gallery.
