More Information
The best repair is one that does not need doing again six months later. Before we lift or replace anything, we identify why the problem has developed. Sunken blocks usually indicate a sub-base failure or poor compaction at installation. Cracked slabs can result from ground movement, overloading, or inadequate bedding. By understanding the cause, we fix the problem properly rather than just patching over it. Our Burgess Hill customers appreciate this straightforward approach.
Block paving is well-suited to repair because individual blocks can be lifted cleanly, the sub-base rebuilt or compacted correctly, and the same blocks relaid. This makes block paving one of the most cost-effective surfaces to repair over its lifetime. M&S Landscaping lifts sunken or displaced sections, corrects the underlying issue, and relays the blocks so the surface is level and consistent. Where blocks have broken or faded, we source matching replacements as closely as possible.
Cracked or broken patio slabs can be a trip hazard and an eyesore. We replace individual slabs where needed, matching the material and size of the existing surface. Loose or missing pointing between slabs is another common problem that allows water ingress and weed growth. We re-point patio joints using appropriate mortar or flexible jointing compound that stays in place and keeps the surface watertight and weed-resistant.

All work carried out by our own in-house team
We carried out a block paving repair for a homeowner in Burgess Hill whose driveway had developed a large sunken area near the dropped kerb after several years of heavy vehicle use. Rather than relaying the whole driveway, we lifted the affected section, rebuilt the sub-base with properly compacted hardcore, and relaid the existing blocks. The repaired section was indistinguishable from the rest of the driveway, and the homeowner saved significantly compared to a full replacement.

Sunken block paving is usually caused by a poorly compacted sub-base at the time of installation, ground movement due to tree roots or waterlogged soil, or heavy vehicle loads over time. M&S Landscaping will diagnose the cause during your free quote visit and recommend the right repair approach.
