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 runs a very professional small business. Friendly, punctual and hard working. Built 2 retaining walls and remodelled our driveway paving. Would use Antonio's service again.
Antonio and his colleague did a great job with our backyard brick laying. Easy to deal with, on time and professional.

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.
Rowville is mostly 1980s–2000s family homes on medium blocks with double garages, many with pools and alfresco areas.
Clay soil means a solid compacted base and planned falls are essential.
Rowville backyards are made for family life. Non-slip pavers, exposed aggregate and porcelain are popular choices.
Demolition, excavation, compacted base, edge restraints, laying, cutting, joint filling and a wash-down. Most double driveways take four to six working days.
We renovate pool surrounds and build alfresco areas in the same stone for a finished look, keeping the pool barrier compliant.
Rowville is in the City of Knox. Any change to the vehicle crossing between the footpath and the road needs a council permit, and new stormwater must connect to a legal point of discharge — we plan both on the first site visit. As a guide (inc GST): a 50m² paved driveway is about $7,000–$11,000 and a 25m² porcelain alfresco about $4,500–$7,000.
Near Stud Park and Wellington Road, family homes; toward Lysterfield, larger blocks. Antonio quotes and oversees every job himself.
Rowville (3178) is in the City of Knox. The jobs we quote most here are double driveways, alfresco areas, pool surrounds and side paths. 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.
Rowville has mainly 1980s and 90s family homes on sloping streets near Stud Park and the Dandenong foothills. Bluestone suits steps and front entries, and travertine is popular for backyard entertaining. We lay both stones for entries, porches, courtyards, alfresco areas and pool surrounds in Rowville, and match borders and steps so the whole outdoor area feels finished. 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. If you'd rather skip sealing, porcelain gives a similar look with almost no maintenance. The price is fixed and written after a free site visit. 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.
Rowville's slopes and clay send runoff quickly down driveways. Permeable paving slows it, and on steeper sites we add drains near the garage. A permeable driveway in Rowville uses pavers with wider joints filled with fine gravel, laid over an open-graded base, so rain passes through the surface instead of running off. Driveway stormwater has to reach the legal point of discharge for your block, which the City of Knox can confirm, and any new or wider crossover needs a council permit. 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.

Rowville driveways from the 80s and 90s often have dips and spreading edges on the slopes. We rebuild the base and re-lay the pavers with firm edges. Common jobs are sunken sections near downpipes, driveway dips where cars turn, root-lifted paths, trip hazards at steps and loose, weedy joints. A proper repair means lifting the section, digging out the soft material, compacting new crushed rock and re-laying the original pavers to the same pattern. If you notice a dip, a rocking paver or water sitting on the paving after rain, get it looked at early — a small repair in Rowville costs far less than a large one once the base has washed out. 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.

Most paving jobs in Rowville 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.
