Planning a block paving repair in Middleton
Middleton is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so falls, channel drains and permeable options matter more than usual.

What is included?
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.
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- 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
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit

How much does a block paving repair cost in Middleton?
Our guide is £200–£650 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
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.
