Planning a block paving repair in Norwich
Across Norwich, front gardens range from narrow terrace plots to broad modern drives, and the best block, pattern and drainage choice changes with them.
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.
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- 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
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
Before we price your block paving repair
- 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
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains

Our guide is £210–£680 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
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.
