Sunken and rutted block paving in Haverfordwest: the local picture
Around Haverfordwest, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
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.
- Investigation of the cause (drain, sub-base, laying course, edging)
- Sub-base dug out and rebuilt where it has failed
- New laying course screeded to the correct level and falls
- Blocks lifted, cleaned and stacked for re-use
- Same blocks relaid, re-jointed and compacted
Before we price your sunken area repair
