Lift and re-lay block paving in Maidenhead: the local picture
Maidenhead is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Chalk, clay and sandy ground all occur across the South East, so the dig and sub-base depth are set on the survey rather than assumed.
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Maidenhead?
For Maidenhead, our guide is £40–£85 per m² including VAT, so 30 m² re-laid is likely to be £1,150–£2,600. Smaller jobs cost more per square metre because set-up and waste costs do not shrink with the area.

What you get with our lift and re-lay service
Lift and re-lay means taking up an existing block paved area, cleaning and stacking the blocks, correcting the bed and the sub-base, and laying the same blocks back down. When the blocks are still sound, it fixes widespread sinking, rocking and uneven joints for less than a new drive, because the blocks themselves are re-used.
- New screeded laying course
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set

Lift and re-lay in Maidenhead: questions
Do you cover Slough, Windsor and Bracknell?
Yes. We cover Maidenhead and the places around it, including Slough, Windsor and Bracknell, and the rest of Berkshire.
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.
Can you repair block paving in Maidenhead 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.
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.
