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.
- Jointing sand and compaction
- New screeded laying course
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
How we find the cause
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving

Yes. We cover Fleet and the places around it, including Farnborough, Aldershot and Yateley, and the rest of Hampshire.
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 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.
