Planning a lift and re-lay job in Sandhurst
In and around Sandhurst, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Planning-sensitive towns and conservation areas are common in the South East, so we check the front-garden rules before quoting.

What is included?
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.
- 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
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Jointing sand and compaction
