Block paving repairs in Cirencester: the local picture
Cirencester is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Sloping plots are common in the South West, which affects edging, steps and where the water runs.

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

- 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

Our guide is £200–£650 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
Why does block paving sink?
Most dips come from a thin or poorly compacted sub-base, too much sand under the blocks, failed edging, or water washing material out from a broken drain.
