How to find your installer Start early, good installers are often booked months in advance. Find your nearest Brett Approved Installer by simply searching your postcode at brettpaving.co.uk/findaninstaller. Request that your quotes detail what work is being done and how long it will take. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helpful to have a comparison â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but do make sure they are like for like, including the products and materials used. A professional and thorough presentation should be expected including details of recent or similar projects. Check company details including public liability insurance, guarantees, reference sites and that their scheme membership is current. Remember to get full contact details in case you want to follow up later.

Brett Approved Installers Many people are happy to DIY, but if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the time an Approved Installer is just for you. If you have decided to get someone in, you need to know that the installer is trustworthy and accredited. The Brett Approved Installer scheme is a network of installers whose workmanship is rigorously assessed

by Brett to raise industry standards. You can therefore be sure of higher levels of skill, support, service and professionalism. When dealing with a Brett Approved Installer, you benefit from guarantees which provide peace of mind.

Up to ten-year concrete product guarantee from Brett Five-year installation guarantee from the Brett Approved Installer

Installation certificate and maintenance guide issued on completion of project 8

Our installers also benefit from the latest technical, training and service support. This means that by choosing an Approved Installer you get someone briefed on the latest standards and importantly whose previous work has been vetted both during construction and upon completion.

Some of our installers have shown real excellence in their service and commitment to hard landscaping; many have been involved in Show Gardens or advising with new product developments and innovation. These are Brett Premier Installers.

Design Advice Services

Many Brett Approved Installers provide design help as part of their service and are able to advise on every aspect of your project.

Why not use a Patio Pack? Conveniently packed to cover a set area, with mixed sizes and available in many ranges, these cost effective handy packs are a great project for the weekend. See page 30 for more details or visit brettpaving.co.uk for a choice of laying patterns.

It is the groundwork preparation which costs the most, so selecting a premium finish or colour will only marginally increase your project outlay. By upgrading to products such as Westminster or Natural Stone for your garden or Alpha Antique or Aura for your drive, you will achieve the best possible results whilst only modestly altering the overall cost.

Everyone is asked to act responsibly and do their bit by installing driveways that ensure surface water is handled within the confines of their property, letting it soak into the ground or reusing it in the home, rather than flooding public

Drives Option 2 Non-Permeable Solutions with Soakaways It is still possible to install any of our standard paving products and meet the new legislation. If the ground conditions are suitable, all you need to do is ensure that the design includes suitable drainage slopes and channels to direct water towards an effective soakaway or soft landscaped area. Brett stockists are able to supply a comprehensive range of drainage products. These include line drains, gratings and recessed manholes.

roads and drains. Autumn Mix Alpha Antique with Silver Grey Granite

What are your options? There are a number of ways to meet the new legislation, but choosing one depends on the layout of your property’s front garden and driveway. Here are some guidelines to make your choice easier.

Option 1 Permeable Paving or Driveway Gravel

If both previous options are unsuitable, then applying for planning permission may be the best approach. However, if the paved area is less than 5 sq.m then an application may not be necessary. Also remember this legislation currently only applies in England, so driveways in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are exempt. For further information visit planningportal.gov.uk or contact your local planning office.

These products allow water to permeate through to and into the ground naturally. More advanced designs allow you to collect and reuse water in the home or garden.

Expert installation

Permeable block paving (the ‘Flow’ ranges on page 74-75) and gravel (page 76) are the most popular solutions.

Option 3 Non-Permeable Solutions without Soakaways

Permeable paving requires a different sub-base and material design from normal paving to ensure water can drain freely.

Permeable block paving requires a different sub-base structure and materials to ensure it works efficiently, starting off with some simple tests to understand the suitability of local soil conditions.

All Brett Approved Installers are provided with detailed information and support on how to complete a permeable paving installation.

Choosing the right paving - some tips How will you use the paved area?

Having got an idea for the look you want and the products you might use, the information in this section will help you onto the next stage â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whether you have chosen to Do It Yourself, or have an installer in mind to complete your project.

Think of it as an extension to your home, a parking area, a green room where you and your family can be secure, relax, socialise, play or even work. Whatever its use, make sure you take the time to plan it properly. To ensure that the product you choose is going to be the best fit for purpose, consider the following pages.

Together with brettpaving.co.uk you can find all you need, from help with design through to information on products and patterns.

What paving styles and colours will suit your surroundings?

Many Brett Approved Installers provide design help as part of their service and are able to advise on any aspect of your project. Give one of them a call today. Call 0845 6080 570 or visit brettpaving.co.uk/findaninstaller

To turn your sketches into a detailed hard landscaping plan, take advantage of the Brett Design Advice Service.

You have a choice of over 40 different colourways in the Brett landscaping range. These colours have been developed over many years to support both individual and regional tastes. So try to pick which tones, textures and style suit your property and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surroundings. Look at the colours already in your garden, from furniture, planting to the house bricks. Use these as a colour palette to either complement or contrast with your paving choices.

Complement yellow bricks with creams, yellows, and browns. Dare to be a shade braver, using dark browns and blacks to create a stunning contrast.

Red bricked houses are well matched with warm browns and oranges. Feeling adventurous? Create a colour contrast using greys and natural tones.

Design Advice Service

This service is available free through all Brett stockists and Brett Approved Installers. Call 0845 608 0570 or visit brettpaving.co.uk for more information.

White render or brickwork offers many possibilities as neutral colours provide a great blank canvas. However they do look stunning with Silver Haze, greys or other natural blended tones.

Visit brettpaving.co.uk/gallery for a fantastic inspirational gallery that will really help to visualise different colours and paving designs.

Getting started... Our national network of buildersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; merchants are able to provide advice and organise samples as they carry stock of popular ranges.

Product Information What thickness of driveway block paving do you need? You will need to consider what the driveway is going to be used for. 50mm thick blocks are suitable for lightly trafficked domestic drives. If large or heavy vehicles are likely to traffic your driveway, use 60mm thick blocks, or for extra robustness 80mm blocks.

Block paving is a very popular choice for driveways. It provides a strong interlocking surface that holds up to trafficking over many years. There is a great range of attractive finishes and colours to choose from.

Block Paving Jointing Sand Kiln Dried Sand is used for filling joints on block paving creating a close and tight bond. The coverage is dependent on the thickness of the block paving. Jointing Sand coverage per 25kg bag

Line Drain

However, permeable paving isn’t just about the block paving. the Sub-base structure and materials are also essential for it’s performance.

Permeable Sub-base Material Permeable Sub-base Material has a voided structure, as it doesn’t contain very fine particles. Hence it collects and holds water within its structure, before dispersing it into the soil or into a drainage system.

60mm = approx. 5.6 sq.m 80mm = approx. 4.4 sq.m

Stayputt Jointing Compound

Using permeable paving, such as Alpha Antique Flow or Omega Flow, is a straightforward and responsible alternative to standard block or flag paving.

To understand your options, see page 72, ‘Being Responsible with Water’. Some designs will require planning permission.

50mm = approx. 7.6 sq.m

Stayputt Narrow Joining Compound is an easy-to-use, selfstabilising material suitable for joints of between 2mm – 5mm, making it ideal for use with most types of block paving on driveways, when laid on a sharp sand screed.

Colours: Brindle, Charcoal,

Autumn Gold See page 74

Autumn Gold, Burnt Oak See page 75

Permeable Chippings for Block Paving Permeable Chippings have an angular shape and are essential for installations of permeable paving. Permeable Chippings are used to fill in the large voids between permeable blocks to ensure a strong joint. Also, for Aura and Classico standard block paving, use Permeable Chippings, then top up with jointing sand (this is not permeable). Permeable Chippings coverage per 25kg bag 60mm Permeable Paving

80mm Permeable Paving

Available in 25kg and bulk bags.

Aggregate contaminants: Very rarely concrete may be affected with Iron Pyrites and/or Lignite. These are both the result of naturally occurring constituents within the product raw materials which may result in localised discolouration of the surface of an individual unit. This phenomenon will not normally affect the performance of the product. SPECIAL THANKS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Brett would like to thank:

Sealants: Sealers can help protect and enhance your investment. Before you choose to buy one, make sure you are aware of the following. Sealers may trap potential efflorescence and other forms of discolouration that can occur from

Tumbling: Products that are tumbled, such as Alpha and Aura, have been distressed with varying production techniques. The distressing process by its very nature creates a random aesthetic. This variation is deliberate and gives the appeal of the product range. ORDERING To order Brett product contact your nearest Brett stockist, call 0845 6080 570 or visit brett.co.uk/findastockist If samples have been acquired from a Brett stockist, we strongly recommend ordering from the same stockist. All dimensions quoted in Brett literature are nominal and are for guidance only. Actual sizes of individual units will vary, particularly on garden products. Most sq.m. coverage figures assume a nominal 10mm joint is used between all garden products. If you are having difficulty quantifying the product you require, please call our Customer Services on 0845 608 0570. The total quantity required should ideally be ordered and delivered at the same time to reduce the risk of product variation.

HEALTH & SAFETY Hard landscaping products can be hazardous, especially when lifting, cutting, drilling or abrading. Always carry out a risk assessment and apply the appropriate precautions to help avoid the risk of injury to yourself or others. INSTALLATION Brett products should be installed to relevant European standards where appropriate. Where products fall outside the scope of such standards, Brett best practice installation techniques are recommended. For any queries on installation methods please call our Customer Services on 0845 608 0570. Each manufacturing production run of a specific product (or batch) will have its own unique characteristics. Minimising the number of batches will help reduce product variation. Products should be laid from a number of packs at the same time. In the case of paving three packs should be mixed for single colours, five in the case of multi-coloured product. Ideally, product should also be mixed by being taken from vertical stacks rather than in layers of the same pack. Any garden products supplied may incur joint widths of differing sizes depending on the pattern they are installed in. We recommend they are dry laid to check the product fits the required area before they are actually bedded. This is also important for circles, octagons and corner kits. AFTERCARE All pavements should be subjected to a regular maintenance regime. For more details on the appropriate course of action, please see the ‘Essential Maintenance Guide’ on brettpaving.co.uk.

UALITY

Aura/Classico Circles/Fleur de Lys Patterns = 5 sq.m

Porosity: Concrete continues to cure for many years after manufacture. Whilst this happens, and usually only during its initial life, a level of porosity may exist where some product retains water giving a damp appearance. This will disappear as the concrete continues to harden and the product dries out.

Aura/Classico Rectangular Block Patterns

Differential Curing: Dark patches occasionally appear on the surface of garden products. This is known as Differential Curing and is caused by varying moisture levels within the flag drying at different rates. Like efflorescence, given time and the natural weathering process such patches will tone down and become less visible.

The colours in concrete paving come from pigmentation placed into the product during production. Products may have 2 or 3 different pigments added to create the subtle and very attractive colour tones. Overall these variations are more uniform.

PLANNING PERMISSION Legislation on hard landscaping changes around your property may require a planning application. The responsibility to comply lies with the homeowner.

NCRETE

Omega Flow

CONSIDERATIONS FOR CONCRETE PRODUCTS Efflorescence: Efflorescence is a temporary salt residue that can occur on all concrete products in their initial life. The salt masks the colour of the product and is often mistaken for fading. The best course of action is to leave the paved area to weather over time and efflorescence will usually disappear.

The instances mentioned above are not covered under any product guarantee provided by Brett. For more information on any of the topics above, please contact our Customer Services on 0845 6080 570.

Any suggestion of non-conformity must result in the complaint being registered and the product not being installed. Responsibility for costs incurred for uplifting and relaying defective product may be prejudiced if the defect should have been apparent before installation.

Alpha Antique Flow

SUITABILITY Products which are less than 50mm thick are not suitable to run cars on. Only products of 50mm or more are suitable for driveway installation.

Surface marking: Some products within the range are deliberately distressed via a tumbling process in order to give them their aged aesthetic. Tumbling can leave a dust on the surface of the product that should significantly reduce with the natural ageing process.

DELIVERY & INSPECTION In the unlikely event of products arriving in a less than satisfactory condition, please refer to your stockist immediately with product and batch code details that are printed on the packaging.

Ensuring water drains into a rainwater garden, soakaway or a purpose-designed permeable sub-base are some of the ways you can meet current legislation.

Find your local stockist by visiting brettpaving.co.uk/wheretobuy or call 0845 6080 570. Colour swatches in this brochure are as accurate as printing allows, however products may vary. This is why we recommend you look at samples and if possible try to see some product laid.

time to time, making them almost impossible to remove. We recommend you wait 12-18 months before sealing. This will allow any potential discolouration to be exposed and enable you to remove it. Before sealing, make sure that the paving is thoroughly cleaned and any joints are filled. Prior to applying to the whole installation, test in a small inconspicuous area.
