Planning a block paving repair in Mitcham

Mitcham has a big mix of housing, from older terraces near the centre to newer estates further out, so no two drives here start from the same ground.

Many London streets have controlled parking and narrow frontages, so we measure the car space and the crossover before anything else.

What does a block paving repair involve?

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
  • Laying course corrected and re-screeded
  • Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
  • Diagnosis from photos or a visit
  • Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used

How we find the cause

  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Trees, roots and past trenches
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains

Repairs in Mitcham: questions

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.
