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.
Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on the drive.
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
How we find the cause
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
