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.

Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

  • Jointing sand and compaction
  • Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
  • Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
  • New screeded laying course
  • Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set

How we find the cause

  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Trees, roots and past trenches
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks

Why does block paving sink?
