Planning a block paving repair in Bushey

In Bushey, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.

Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on the drive.

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.

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

What we look at first in Bushey

  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • Trees, roots and past trenches

Repairs in Bushey: questions

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.

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.

Can you repair block paving in Bushey without replacing it?

Usually, yes. We lift the affected blocks, fix the bed or base, and re-lay the same blocks so the repair matches.
