Lift and re-lay block paving in Flint: the local picture
Flint is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

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.
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
How we find the cause
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair

Lift and re-lay in Flint: questions
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Flint?
Our guide is £35–£75 per m² including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
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 Flint 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.
