What is included?
It is also the way to change a layout, add drainage or a recessed cover, or raise or lower a drive, without buying new blocks. A small allowance of new blocks is usually needed for breakages and new cuts.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- New screeded laying course
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
How we find the cause
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair

Lift and re-lay in Clwyd: questions
Do you cover Wrexham, Buckley and Deeside?
Yes. We cover all of Clwyd, including Wrexham, Buckley and Deeside.
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 Clwyd 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.
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.
