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.
Planning-sensitive towns and conservation areas are common in the South East, so we check the front-garden rules before quoting.
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
How we find the cause
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains

Repairs in West Sussex: questions
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.
Can you repair block paving in West Sussex 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.
Do you cover Crawley, Worthing and Bognor Regis?
Yes. We cover all of West Sussex, including Crawley, Worthing and Bognor Regis.
