What is included?
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.
Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on the drive.
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- New screeded laying course
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
How we find the cause
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Condition and thickness of your existing blocks

Can you repair block paving in Norfolk 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.

Do you cover Norwich, Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn?
Yes. We cover all of Norfolk, including Norwich, Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn.
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.
