Block paving repairs in Tonypandy: the local picture

Tonypandy is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.

Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.

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.

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

How we find the cause

  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
