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.

  • Laying course corrected and re-screeded
  • Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
  • Diagnosis from photos or a visit
  • Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
  • Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours

  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks

  • Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
