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.

Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

  • Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
  • Lifting, cleaning and stacking
  • Jointing sand and compaction
  • Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
  • New screeded laying course

How we find the cause

  • How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
  • Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
  • What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains
  • Condition and thickness of your existing blocks
  • Falls, so water does not collect again
