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
