Description
Paving is the skill needed to pave dirt, e.g. for creating roads, paving, laying the floor of your house, or simply for aesthetic pleasure.
It is possible to pave under water; for example to ease the exiting of a ship onto dry land, and again for aesthetic purposes. With Body strength higher than 21 you are able to pave a tile then dig it into water to completely submerge it.
Items required
Method
Packing dirt is the first paving action required to add any type of pavement. Paving is then added to this packed dirt, except for floor boards, which may be laid on dirt or marsh. Activate the item you want to pave with then right-click the tile and choose Pave.
Higher paving skill and higher quality paving items give a faster completion timer.
Removing paving
Paved tiles may be cultivated back to dirt by equipping a shovel and choosing 'Destroy pavement'. Body strength of 20 and a digging skill of 10 is required for destroying pavement. Destroying pavement gives digging skill and the length of time it takes to remove the pavement is also based on this digging.
Diagonal paving
Selecting "Pave nearest corner" will pave half of the tile diagonally depending on the paving type being laid.
The entire tile will be considered paved for the purpose of things like walking speed, but the unpaved corners will take on the graphical appearance of the tiles next to them.
Subterranean paving
Paving underground(in mines) can be done by first reinforcing the mine floor. To reinforce, activate a support beam, right click the floor tile, choose reinforce. After the tile is supported, apply 1 mortar to the reinforcement by activating it, right click the tile, choose prepare. Once the tile is prepared, you're able to perform normal above-ground paving methods(all above options are available underground as well).
It should be noted that paving diagonally is not possible whilst underground.
Bridge paving
Paving the surface of a completed bridge can be done similarly to subterranean paving. After the bridge is completed, you must apply mortar to the bridge's surface. After the roadway is prepared, you can then apply the paving type of your choosing.
House floors
Paving is also used to build house floor plans. The minimum skill requirements are:
| Skill | Floor |
|---|---|
| 21 | Stone brick floor, Stone slab floor, Sandstone slab floor |
| 25 | Pottery brick floor |
| 30 | Slate slab floor |
| 40 | Marble slab floor |
In addition, a certain level of paving is required to build these kinds of floor at a given height. The skill required is the same as listed on the table for Multi-story housing for the same floors... so 70 skill for 8th floor etc.

Notes
- Paving can be done while moving, so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.
