Planning a block paving repair in Hyde
Hyde is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

What does a block paving repair involve?
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.
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
How we find the cause
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches

Repairs in Hyde: 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.
