Block paving repairs in Bartley Green: the local picture

Bartley Green is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.

Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

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.

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

How we find the cause

  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in

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.
