Block paving repairs in Andover: what to expect
Andover is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Chalk, clay and sandy ground all occur across the South East, so the dig and sub-base depth are set on the survey rather than assumed.

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

Repairs in Andover: questions
How much does a block paving repair cost in Andover?
Our guide is £215–£700 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
Can you send someone just to look?
For larger or unclear problems we visit; for small repairs, clear photos with a tape measure in shot are often enough to price it.
Do you cover Winchester, Basingstoke and Eastleigh?
Yes. We cover Andover and the places around it, including Winchester, Basingstoke and Eastleigh, and the rest of Hampshire.
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.
