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.
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- Jointing sand and compaction
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
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
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
