Planning a block paving repair in Chippenham
Homes in Chippenham include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
The South West is wetter than the east of England, so falls and drainage are planned before the pattern is chosen.

What is included?
Most small repairs can be priced from clear photos and a measurement. If the problem is a symptom of something deeper, such as a failed edge or a soft sub-base, we will say so rather than patching over it, and price the proper fix alongside.
- Diagnosis from photos or a visit
- Re-jointing and compaction of the repaired area
- Damaged blocks cut out without breaking neighbours
- Laying course corrected and re-screeded
- Replacement blocks matched as closely as possible, or sound blocks re-used
How we find the cause
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Falls, so water does not collect again
