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.

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

Before we price your block paving repair

  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in

Every edge restraint is bedded and haunched, so the paving cannot creep.

You deal with one team from survey to sign-off, with work carried out by paving teams working under S&K.

Repairs in Chingford: 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 Edmonton, Walthamstow and Tottenham?

Yes. We cover Chingford and the places around it, including Edmonton, Walthamstow and Tottenham, and the rest of Greater London.
