What is included?
Block paving repairs fix local damage: cracked or broken blocks, loose blocks that rock, oil or rust stains, and trenches left after a utility company or builder has dug through the drive. Because each block is separate, a damaged area can be lifted, the bed corrected and the blocks relaid or replaced, without breaking out the whole drive.
Sloping drives are common in parts of Yorkshire, which affects falls, steps and drainage at the bottom of the drive.
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
How we find the cause
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete

Repairs in North Yorkshire: questions
How much does a block paving repair cost in North Yorkshire?
Our guide is £180–£590 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
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.
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.
