Block paving repairs in Colne: the local picture
In and around Colne, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so falls, channel drains and permeable options matter more than usual.

What does a block paving repair involve?
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.
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- 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
How we find the cause
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- 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
