Driveway Repairs

Sunken blocks, loose slabs, weeds and tired surfaces put right, so you get a driveway or patio that looks new for a fraction of a full rebuild.

What we do

  • Lifting and relaying sunken or rutted blocks
  • Replacing cracked or loose slabs
  • Re-sanding and re-pointing joints
  • Fixing failed edging and kerbs
  • Drainage fixes for puddling and standing water
  • Refreshing and refurbishing tired patios

Not every tired driveway needs ripping out. If you are on a budget, a repair or refurbishment can make it look like new for far less.

Common problems we fix

Sunken or rutted blocks where cars park, rocking slabs, weeds pushing through joints, broken edging, and puddles that never drain. Most of these come down to a weak sub-base, missing edge restraint or water getting underneath.

Fix the cause

We lift the affected area, sort out what is underneath, rebuild the base where needed and relay the blocks or slabs level with the rest. Joints are re-sanded or re-pointed, and edging is reset in concrete so it holds.

Honest advice

If a repair will not last, we will tell you, and show you what a new driveway would look like instead. Either way you get a clear, no-obligation written quote.

Questions

Common questions

Is a repair worth it, or do I need a new driveway?

If the sub-base is sound, a repair or refurbishment is often all you need and saves a lot of money. Nathan will look at it honestly and tell you which makes more sense.

Why has my driveway sunk?

Usually because the sub-base was too thin, the edging has failed or water is getting under the blocks. We find the cause and fix that, not just the surface.

Can you repair a patio as well?

Yes. We relay loose or rocking slabs, re-point joints and refresh tired patios of all kinds.
