Planning a block paving repair in Pontypool

Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

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
- 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
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
Before we price your block paving repair
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
