Block paving repairs in Prestwick: the local picture

Around Prestwick, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.

Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.

In Scotland block paving is often called monoblock; it is the same thing, and the same rules for the base, edging and drainage apply.

What does a block paving repair involve?

Block paving repairs fix local damage: cracked or broken blocks, loose blocks that rock, oil or rust stains, and trenches left after a utility company or builder has dug through the drive. Because each block is separate, a damaged area can be lifted, the bed corrected and the blocks relaid or replaced, without breaking out the whole drive.

  • Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
  • Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
  • Diagnosis from photos or a visit
  • Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
  • Laying course corrected and re-screeded

  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
