What you get with our repairs service

Most small repairs can be priced from clear photos and a measurement. If the problem is a symptom of something deeper, such as a failed edge or a soft sub-base, we will say so rather than patching over it, and price the proper fix alongside.

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

Before we price your block paving repair

  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • Trees, roots and past trenches
