Planning a block paving repair in Amersham
Around Amersham, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.

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