Lift and re-lay block paving in Wrexham: what to expect
Homes in Wrexham include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

What does a lift and re-lay job involve?
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
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Jointing sand and compaction
How we find the cause
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Falls, so water does not collect again
