Planning a block paving repair in Grimsby
Grimsby has a big mix of housing, from older terraces near the centre to newer estates further out, so no two drives here start from the same ground.
Sloping drives are common in parts of Yorkshire, which affects falls, steps and drainage at the bottom of the drive.

What is included?
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.
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
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
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks

Repairs in Grimsby: 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.
