Repair, re-leveling & sealing

Sunken spots lifted, joints refilled, colour brought back

Pavers have one great advantage over poured surfaces: they come up and go back down. A dip where the cars park, a walk that has heaved round a tree root or a stained corner can all be fixed without a new drive.

We lift the pavers in the problem area and stack them in order, repair and compact the base under it, screed fresh bedding sand and relay the same pavers so the patch disappears into the drive. Then the joints are re-sanded and, if you like, the whole drive is cleaned and sealed to bring the colour back.

Questions

Why do pavers sink?

Almost always the base: too thin, not compacted, or washed out by water running under it. We fix the base under the dip, not just the sand on top.

Do you repair drives you didn’t lay?

Yes, most of our repair work is on drives someone else laid. If the whole base has failed, we tell you so rather than patching it again.
