Planning a lift and re-lay job in Morden
Morden is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Front gardens in much of London are short, so parking depth and the dropped kerb usually decide whether a drive is possible.
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Morden?
In London, a lift and re-lay job usually costs £40–£95 per m² including VAT. For 30 m² re-laid, that is roughly £1,250–£2,900. Your exact price depends on what the survey or your photos show, and is fixed in writing before anything is booked.

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.
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking

- New screeded laying course
How we find the cause
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair

Can you repair block paving in Morden 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.
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.
