    I want to have my driveway (currently concrete) replaced with cobble-lock and would like to hear your recommendations and advice.
    I'm looking for a company to do the lot (take-up old driveway and remove, and build a small wall around it) - all at reasonable cost of course.
    I'm based in Dublin.

    Thanks in advance.

    I came across it googling for D.M Paving who cobblelocked a garden where I get the bus on the Malahide road and I have to say, it looks very impressive. They did it really quickly too.

    you could also try a crowd called pavement RS. I got them and found they are very reasonable and do an excellent job and unlike many of the cowboys out there, these know what they are doing. they have a website called www.pavementrs.ie.

    I have a big landrover discovery parked on my driveway for the last year and its still perfect .. Beware I have a friend who got this done in Swords by someone out there and after a few weeks the driveway started to sink under the weight of their Ford Fiesta and now they have a nice paddling pool for the kids in the driveway everytime it rains... Just make sure whoever you get know what they're doing!

    I'd second DM paving - he did my front driveway and a growing number of neighbours - good quality work.
