Paving & Other Hard Surfaces
Paving and hard surfacing is so much more than just the laying down of brick pavers.
Paving and other hard surfacing adds market value to your property, but mentally and emotionally beautiful outdoor spaces gift you so much more.
EcoScapes Paving is a dedicated professional paving project team within EcoScapes Outdoor Projects. Our team installs paving professionally and technically correct on compacted sub-base and sand layers for maximum stability and durability. We do various paving projects for clients, from the home owner to large projects for private companies and the public sector. We install paving to your requirements which will enhance your environment and provide you with many years of good service and satisfaction.
We are well known in the paving and building industry for our quality paving and concrete work.
Types of paving that we specialise in:
Brick paving
Exposed aggregate paving
Polished Honed concrete paving
An exposed-aggregate surface is obtained by placing concrete and then removing the outer 'skin' of cement paste to uncover decorative coarse aggregate (either batched into the concrete mix or seeded onto the surface).
Instead of exposing the aggregate in the concrete (like in exposed aggregate paving) with honed concrete paving we do a grinding process, which creates a smooth exposed aggregate finish with the most interesting effects, especially when viewed from close. This unique grinding process is commonly referred to as a “honed concrete finish” or a “polished concrete finish”.
Our customers include well known builders, project managers, high-end businesses as well as the general public.
How to recognise quality paving:
There’s a smooth flow and integration between old and new paving installation.
The paving has a stable, even and solid sub-base. You won’t see it, but the sub-base is an essential part of the new paving. As with almost anything in life, a proper foundation is essential for a quality product. Without a proper sub-base foundation, your paving could buckle under the weight of vehicle traffic. The best way to avoid this is with precision installation of sub-base from experienced paving professionals.
Water will drain properly. Standing water indicate uneven levels and puts your paving at risk for damage that could be costly to repair. When we perform paving jobs, one of the most important objectives is to ensure that water has somewhere to go. We make use of gulley, channels and levels to safely guide water to the desired location like drains, water storage tanks or underground water systems.
Attention has been paid to the details. Details matter, for both form and function of your paving. Our experienced team always takes measures to ensure clean edges and an even surface. We fully intend you’re paving to last and look great for many years to come, and this is only possible when we provide the greatest amount of attention possible. We design the paving according to the client’s needs (heavy vehicle traffic, aesthetics, parking, steep driveway, non-slip, etc.) and take the design of the buildings into account.
The job was done by EcoScapes. We take great pride in having paved the best-looking paving in Cape Town! Our equipment is state-of-the-art and carefully maintained, we don’t subcontract any part of the job, and every project is personally overseen by either Michael of Bernard.
