What you get with our repairs service

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.

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

How we find the cause

  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Trees, roots and past trenches

  4. Booked and built

    Agreed start date, then the work, the final clean-down and the joint top-up.

What you can expect from us

Honest timescales

We tell you how long the job takes and what can delay it, such as approvals and weather.

Edges set in concrete

Every edge restraint is bedded and haunched, so the paving cannot creep.

Water planned first

Falls, channels and soakaways are designed before the pattern is chosen.

Repair before replace

If your drive can be fixed or re-laid, we will say so.

Repairs in Woking: questions

Can you repair block paving in Woking 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.

How much does a block paving repair cost in Woking?

Our guide is £215–£700 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.
