Lift and re-lay block paving in Grimsby: what to expect
Grimsby has a big mix of housing, from older terraces near the centre to newer estates further out, so no two drives here start from the same ground.
Sloping drives are common in parts of Yorkshire, which affects falls, steps and drainage at the bottom of the drive.

What you get with our lift and re-lay service
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.
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
How we find the cause
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Trees, roots and past trenches
