Lift and re-lay block paving in Treharris: the local picture
Treharris is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Treharris?

What you get with our lift and re-lay service
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.
- 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
Before we price your lift and re-lay job

- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete

Lift and re-lay in Treharris: questions
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.
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Treharris?
Our guide is £35–£75 per m² including VAT. Small repairs are often priced from photos.
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 Treharris 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.
