Block paving repairs in Kingswood: what to expect
Kingswood is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
The South West is wetter than the east of England, so falls and drainage are planned before the pattern is chosen.

What is included?
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
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
How we find the cause
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete

Repairs in Kingswood: questions
Can you send someone just to look?
For larger or unclear problems we visit; for small repairs, clear photos with a tape measure in shot are often enough to price it.
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.
Do you cover Mangotsfield, Yate and Stroud?
Yes. We cover Kingswood and the places around it, including Mangotsfield, Yate and Stroud, and the rest of Gloucestershire.
Can you repair block paving in Kingswood without replacing it?
Usually, yes. We lift the affected blocks, fix the bed or base, and re-lay the same blocks so the repair matches.
