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.

Clay soils are common in parts of the East of England, so drainage and sub-base depth get extra attention.

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

How we find the cause

  • Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
