Sunken and rutted block paving in Rhosllannerchrugog: what to expect
In Rhosllannerchrugog, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

What you get with our sunken paving service
Sunken block paving is an area that has dropped below the surrounding surface, often as wheel ruts where cars turn, a dip near a manhole or drain, or a hollow where water sits after rain. The blocks themselves are usually fine; the problem is underneath.
- Investigation of the cause (drain, sub-base, laying course, edging)
- Same blocks relaid, re-jointed and compacted
- Blocks lifted, cleaned and stacked for re-use
- New laying course screeded to the correct level and falls
- Sub-base dug out and rebuilt where it has failed

Why does block paving sink?
Most dips come from a thin or poorly compacted sub-base, too much sand under the blocks, failed edging, or water washing material out from a broken drain.
