Antonio completed our bluestone paving in Hampton and the result is outstanding. The levels, drainage and finishing details are flawless. Highly recommended for high-end paving.
We had a fairly complicated drainage issue on the site, but Antonio came up with a solution and executed it perfectly. The workmanship was top quality, and there were no unexpected surprises along the way.

Antonio and his colleague did a great job with our backyard brick laying. Easy to deal with, on time and professional.
Antonio just completed some brick paving alongside our front fence. The paving looks fabulous and was completed in 2 days. He was reliable and the work was completed to a high standard.
Antonio cleared out our small backyard, laid some pavers and built a step around our existing deck. He was quick to respond, well priced, and was happy to change and vary the scope of works as needed.
Notting Hill is where Antonio PrimeScape Construction is based, so this is the suburb we know best. It's a small pocket between Monash University, Ferntree Gully Road and the Monash Freeway, with a mix of original 1960s and 70s brick homes, unit developments and student housing near the university. Many properties have old concrete driveways and small courtyards that haven't been touched since they were built.
A lot of Notting Hill jobs are compact: a courtyard for a unit, a side path, a small driveway or a bin area. Small doesn't mean simple — access is often tight, so we use mini excavators and barrows that fit through a side gate, and we plan drainage carefully because there's usually nowhere for water to go except a single pit. Reactive clay is the norm here, so the base is dug and compacted properly even on small jobs.
Brick paver and exposed aggregate driveways, paved courtyards in travertine or porcelain, side paths that finally stop the mud along the fence, and paver repairs where tree roots or a failed base have lifted an area. Landlords and property managers also call us to tidy up rental and unit properties between tenants.
Notting Hill is in the City of Monash. Vehicle crossing changes need a council permit. For units, common property usually needs the owners corporation's approval before work starts; we're happy to provide a written scope and quote you can put to the committee.
Because we're based here, we can often look at a Notting Hill job the same week you call. Antonio quotes every job himself, gives a written fixed price, and oversees the work with the same trusted crew on every project.
With Monash University next door, many Notting Hill properties are rentals. Landlords want paving that survives heavy use, cleans easily and doesn't need sealing every year. Concrete or clay brick pavers on a deep base, or exposed aggregate concrete, are the usual answers. We can schedule the work between tenancies, and we provide written quotes that are easy to pass on to an owner or property manager.
In the smaller units and townhouses, a courtyard is often the only outdoor space. Large-format porcelain or travertine laid in a simple pattern, with the same colour carried to the edges, makes a small area feel larger. Good falls matter even more here, because a single blocked pit can flood a small courtyard in one storm. We check pits and connections as part of the job.
A 10m² courtyard in porcelain or travertine is about $1,800–$2,800 (inc GST) at $180–$280/m². A short side path in brick is often under $2,000. Small jobs still get a written quote with the base, drainage and clean-up included.
Tell us whether the property is a house, a unit on common property or a rental, and what the space is used for. If water pools after rain or pavers move underfoot, a quick photo helps. We're local, so a site visit is usually easy to arrange within a day or two — text 0406 170 544 or use the form below.
Being based in Notting Hill means we're close if anything needs attention after the job. It also means we know the area's soils, the Monash Council process for crossings and the practical realities of working on tight unit sites. That local knowledge is built into every quote.
Notting Hill (3168) is in the City of Monash. The jobs we quote most here are courtyards, side paths, small driveways and rental make-goods. The ground is mostly reactive clay, so a deep, compacted crushed-rock base and planned falls are non-negotiable. Every quote is free, written and fixed after Antonio has measured up on site, and we also work in nearby Clayton, Mulgrave and Glen Waverley.
Notting Hill is our home base, with post-war homes and newer townhouses near Ferntree Gully Road and Monash University. Bluestone suits modern entries, and travertine works well for backyards. In Notting Hill the most popular uses are front entries and steps, side paths, alfresco areas and pool surrounds — often with a bluestone border framing a lighter travertine field. We lay bluestone in sawn, honed or natural-split finishes, and travertine as tumbled or honed pavers in French pattern, straight lay or herringbone. Both stones are laid on a compacted crushed-rock base with the right falls, so water runs away from the house and the stone stays level. We seal natural stone after laying so oil, wine and leaf stains wipe off, and we'll tell you when it needs resealing. You get a fixed written quote after we measure up on site. Bluestone paving is $190–$300/m² and travertine $180–$280/m² including GST, fully installed with excavation, base and clean-up. See our bluestone and travertine pages for finishes and photos.
With redevelopment increasing in Notting Hill, permeable paving helps keep part of each site able to soak up rain. Permeable pavers have small gaps filled with clean aggregate; water drains through them into a stone base below and soaks away slowly into the ground. Before a new driveway goes in, check two things with the City of Monash: the permit for any change to the vehicle crossing, and the legal point of discharge where your stormwater has to go. For new homes and units, Victorian planning rules also expect at least 20% of the site to be left permeable, and permeable pavers can help meet that. On clay we lay a deeper open-graded base that stores rain and releases it slowly, with an overflow to the drain for heavy storms. A light sweep and an occasional top-up of joint aggregate keeps it draining well for years. Permeable paving is $150–$220/m² including GST, fully installed with the open-graded base.

Many Notting Hill rentals have paths and driveways that have sunk or have trip hazards. We re-level and re-lay them properly. We fix sunken pavers, tree-root lifting, rocking pavers, spreading edges, broken pavers and joints that have lost their sand. We find the cause first — a weak base, water from a downpipe, roots or missing edges — then lift the affected pavers, rebuild the base and put the same pavers back. Landlords and property managers in Notting Hill often call us about trip hazards before an inspection; re-levelling early is cheaper than dealing with an injury later. Every repair comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty, written into your quote. Re-laying existing pavers costs $90–$150/m² including GST, with a $1,000 minimum job — usually much less than new paving, because your existing pavers are reused. Text photos to 0406 170 544 for a quick price range, or see our paver repairs page. We also fix paving in Clayton and Mulgrave.
Exposed aggregate is a popular choice for Notting Hill driveways and paths: the washed stone surface hides tyre marks, gives good grip and suits both older and new homes. Most of Notting Hill is on reactive clay that swells in winter and shrinks in summer, so the base depth and compaction make or break the job. We pour on a compacted crushed-rock base with reinforcing mesh, cut control joints so cracking happens where it's meant to, and seal the finish. Exposed aggregate costs $145–$210/m² and plain or coloured concrete driveways $90–$210/m² including GST. If you'd rather have a driveway that can be lifted and repaired later, pavers from $140/m² are worth comparing — we'll quote both. See exposed aggregate driveways.
Most paving jobs in Notting Hill cost $150–$300/m² including GST, depending on material — brick from $150/m², bluestone from $190/m² and pool paving from $200/m². Every quote is free and provided in writing after an on-site measure-up.
