Block paving repairs in Failsworth: the local picture
Around Failsworth, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

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.
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
How we find the cause
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
