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.
The South West is wetter than the east of England, so falls and drainage are planned before the pattern is chosen.
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- Jointing sand and compaction
How we find the cause
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair

Lift and re-lay in Gloucestershire: questions
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.
Can you repair block paving in Gloucestershire 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.
