Block paving repairs in Burnham-on-Sea: what to expect
In and around Burnham-on-Sea, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Sloping plots are common in the South West, which affects edging, steps and where the water runs.

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.
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- 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
What we look at first in Burnham-on-Sea
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in

Repairs in Burnham-on-Sea: 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.
