Block paving repairs in Bromsgrove: what to expect

In Bromsgrove, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.

Inter-war semis with narrow front gardens are common in the West Midlands, so front garden conversions and drive widenings are often the practical choice.

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.

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