Planning a sunken area repair in Bordon
In and around Bordon, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Planning-sensitive towns and conservation areas are common in the South East, so we check the front-garden rules before quoting.

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.
- 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
- Blocks lifted, cleaned and stacked for re-use
- Investigation of the cause (drain, sub-base, laying course, edging)
What we look at first in Bordon
- How much of the area needs lifting to blend the repair
- Whether a drain or gully is leaking under the paving
- What caused the dip or movement: base, laying course, edging or drains

Sunken paving in Bordon: questions
Do you cover Aldershot, Fleet and Farnborough?
Yes. We cover Bordon and the places around it, including Aldershot, Fleet and Farnborough, and the rest of Hampshire.
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.
Can you repair block paving in Bordon without replacing it?
Usually, yes. We lift the affected blocks, fix the bed or base, and re-lay the same blocks so the repair matches.
Can you send someone just to look?
For larger or unclear problems we visit; for small repairs, clear photos with a tape measure in shot are often enough to price it.
