Block paving repairs in Kendal: what to expect
In Kendal, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so falls, channel drains and permeable options matter more than usual.

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.
- 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
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
How we find the cause
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
