Our commitment to quality provision ensures that we bring you the best paving products available on the market, but at affordable prices.

Paving and Kerbs

Here at Style and Craft, we are able to pave our way into the hearts of our clients every single time we tackle a task! Our specialities include that of paving, lapa building and lapa maintenance. However, when it comes to the exterior of your home, there really is nothing that we cannot do!

Here is a little bit of information about our unique and varied services:

• Professional paving: When it comes to paving services, we are the tried and trusted experts and we can provide you with a lot more than just the general basics. We are passionate about getting creative with our paving bricks! For example, using contrasting bricks in your driveway entrance to stencil in your house number makes finding your house for guests so much easier. Plus, this is a really original idea that will make your home all the more interesting!
• Paving patterns: Looking for prices for paving that you can actually afford to pay? Then you always come straight to us! We are able to offer you plain pavers, as well as pavers that can be used for patterning. It is generally considered that the Herringbone Patterns should be used in driveway areas where strength is a critical factor. In pedestrian and very light traffic areas, other patterns like Stretcher Bond and Basket Weave can be used to good visual effect.
• Lapa building: Here at Style and Craft, we specialize in custom made lapas designed to fit in with your unique needs and available space. We will be there to analyse your options and to provide you with a lapa that will meet and exceed all prior expectations!
• Lapa maintenance: Our team of lapa designers highly recommend that your thatching is brushed and patched on an annual basis. This will ensure that your Lapa roof lasts for many years resulting in an avoidance of a complete new roof. You can contact us whenever you want to improve the look and quality of your lapa.

Still not sure that we are the lapa and paving company of choice? Take a look at what one of our previous clients had to say about our services:

Keeping Paving and Clay Brickwork in Good Condition

You spent a lot of money on your paving and your intricate clay brickwork, so taking care of it properly should be a top priority. Whether your paving, or your clay brickwork, is being affected by soot or even rust, here are a few tips for cleaning it and keeping it in tip top condition for longer...

You would be surprised to discover just how vulnerable your paving is to dirt and damage. It is therefore important to maintain it on a regular basis in order to keep it looking its best. One of the first things that happen to paving and clay bricks is the growth of moss. Not to worry though as these growths can be killed and removed quite easily if you make use of a solution comprised of copper sulphate (1kg to 10 litres of water) or, alternatively, a proprietary weed killer. Just remember that vegetable growth is generally indicative of damp brickwork and will usually reappear if this basic cause is not cured. For a milder case of moss growth, boiling water or steam can be used to remove the growths.

If you have a little bit of an accident when painting your home and a little bit of the paint gets on your paving or your clay brickwork, don’t freak out. All you have to do in order to get the paint removed is to apply a small amount of commercial paint remover or a solution of trisodium phosphate (1 part to 5 parts water by mass). The paint remover can be purchased at any hardware store and is usually extremely effective. Simply allow the paint to soften after application, and remove with a suitable scraper (not metal). Wash the bricks with soapy water and finally rinse with clean water. Once you have done this, your walkway paver bricks and clay brickwork will look as good as new again!
