Planning a lift and re-lay job in Maghull

Homes in Maghull include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.

The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so falls, channel drains and permeable options matter more than usual.

What does a lift and re-lay job involve?

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.

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

Before we price your lift and re-lay job

  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • 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
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
