Paving & Hardstanding

Paving Blocks & Pavers in Zanzibar

Build Hub produces 60 mm interlocking pavers for driveways, pathways, landscaping and external hardstanding — units that interlock to spread load rather than relying on a rigid slab.

Why interlocking paving suits Zanzibar sites

Interlocking pavers move load sideways through the joints into surrounding units, which makes them tolerant of ground movement in a way a poured slab is not. They can also be lifted and relaid — useful when services run under a driveway or a resort path has to be altered later.

In heavy rain the jointed surface drains at the joints instead of sheeting across a sealed slab, provided the bedding and sub-base were built properly.

The layers under the pavers matter more than the pavers

  • Compacted sub-base to suit the traffic — a driveway is not a footpath
  • Bedding layer of crusher dust or sharp sand, screeded to an even depth
  • Laying pattern chosen for the load — herringbone for vehicular areas
  • Edge restraint on every free edge, or the whole field will creep
  • Joint filling and compaction to lock the units together

Getting the quantity right

Order by area, not by unit count, and add a cutting allowance for edges, radii and around manholes. Send the paved areas with your quote request and we will convert them to units and plan the deliveries, including the bedding material.

Questions

Frequently asked

Are 60 mm pavers suitable for a driveway?

60 mm interlocking units are widely used for domestic driveways and light vehicular areas when laid in a herringbone pattern over a properly compacted sub-base with edge restraint. Heavier commercial traffic should be designed accordingly.

What should pavers be bedded on?

A screeded bedding layer of crusher dust or sharp sand over a compacted sub-base. We can supply the bedding material with the paver order.

Do you supply the sub-base and bedding materials too?

Yes — aggregate for the sub-base and crusher dust or sand for bedding can be quoted and delivered alongside the pavers.
