Why It Works

Why Brick Paving Still Works Best

01

Strongest for driveways

Herringbone brick interlocks, so it resists the twisting forces of turning cars better than other patterns.

02

Classic Melbourne look

Red, charcoal and blended bricks suit Victorian and Edwardian homes as well as modern builds.

03

Clay keeps its colour

Clay pavers are fired, so the colour goes all the way through and won't fade in the sun.

04

Easy to repair

Pavers can be lifted and relaid for tree roots, plumbing access or future changes.

05

Drains through the joints

Sand-filled joints let some water through instead of it all running off.

06

Recycled options

Pricing

Brick Paving Cost in Melbourne

Most brick paving jobs we quote cost $150–$250 per m² supplied and laid. A typical 20m² job — including demolition, base preparation and clean-up — usually lands around $3,000–$5,000.

Where your job lands in that range depends on:

  • PaversClay pavers cost more than concrete; recycled bricks cost more again.
  • Driveway or pathDriveways need a deeper base and heavier edge restraint.
  • DemolitionBreaking out an old slab or pavers adds to the job.
  • Pattern and cutsHerringbone and curves take more cutting than stretcher bond.
  • AccessTight access means more handling by hand.

Common Questions

Brick Paving — FAQ

Do you use grout or polymeric sand in the joints?

It depends on the job. Stone laid on a mortar bed — crazy paving, and bluestone or travertine around pools and patios — usually gets grouted joints, which are firm and easy to keep clean. Pavers laid on a compacted sand and crushed-rock base, like brick and concrete pavers on driveways and paths, get polymeric sand, which sets firm, stays slightly flexible and helps keep weeds and ants out. We recommend the right one for your area on the site visit.

What is brick paving?

Brick paving uses clay or concrete pavers laid in a herringbone, basketweave or running-bond pattern over a compacted base. It's a durable, classic choice for driveways, paths and patios that can handle vehicle loads when installed correctly.

How much does brick paving cost?

Most brick paving jobs we quote cost $150–$250 per m² supplied and laid. A typical 20m² job usually lands around $3,000–$5,000. Every quote is free and confirmed in writing after an on-site measure-up.

Which brick pattern is best for a driveway?

Herringbone. The pavers interlock, so they resist the twisting of turning tyres far better than stretcher bond or basketweave.

Clay or concrete pavers?

Clay pavers keep their colour for life because it goes all the way through. Concrete pavers are cheaper and come in more shapes, but their colour can fade over time. We'll show you both at the quote.

Can you relay my old brick paving?

Often, yes. Sunken or uneven brick paving can usually be lifted, re-based and relaid — and sound old bricks can be cleaned and reused.

Do you provide free quotes?

Yes. Call 0406 170 544 or use the form below and Antonio will arrange a free, no-obligation on-site visit.

Are you insured?

Yes — ABN registered (39 104 568 456) with $20M public liability insurance. Certificates are provided with every written quote.
