Planning a block paving repair in Cannock
Cannock 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.
Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

What does a block paving repair involve?
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
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit

Repairs in Cannock: questions
How much does a block paving repair cost in Cannock?
Our guide is £200–£650 including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
Can you repair block paving in Cannock without replacing it?
Usually, yes. We lift the affected blocks, fix the bed or base, and re-lay the same blocks so the repair matches.
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.
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.
