Sunken and rutted block paving in Hawarden: the local picture
Homes in Hawarden include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.

What is included?
Common causes are a sub-base that was too thin or not compacted, a laying course that was too thick, water washing sand out through a broken drain, or a trench that was never properly filled. Re-levelling means lifting the blocks in and around the dip, finding and fixing the cause, rebuilding and compacting the layers, and relaying the same blocks so they match.
- Blocks lifted, cleaned and stacked for re-use
- New laying course screeded to the correct level and falls
- Same blocks relaid, re-jointed and compacted
- Sub-base dug out and rebuilt where it has failed
- Investigation of the cause (drain, sub-base, laying course, edging)
How we find the cause
- Falls, so water does not collect again
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Trees, roots and past trenches
- Whether the edging has moved or was never set in concrete
