What is included?
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
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
