Planning a lift and re-lay job in Kidderminster
In Kidderminster, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.
How much does a lift and re-lay job cost in Kidderminster?
In the West Midlands, a lift and re-lay job usually costs £35–£80 per m² including VAT. For 30 m² re-laid, that is roughly £1,050–£2,400. Your exact price depends on what the survey or your photos show, and is fixed in writing before anything is booked.

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.
- Sub-base repaired or rebuilt where needed
- Lifting, cleaning and stacking
- Survey of the blocks: thickness, damage and whether they are worth re-using
- Blocks relaid, new cuts made, edges re-set
- Jointing sand and compaction
How we find the cause
- Replacement blocks or hidden blocks to swap in
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
