Driveway Repairs

Driveway repairs address potholes, surface cracking, sunken or heaved sections, individual loose or sunken block-paving units, and failed edge restraints — and the honest starting point for any of these is working out why it happened rather than patching over what is visible. A sunken patch is very often a sign of a poorly compacted or washed-out sub-base beneath it, and a crack running along the same line year after year usually points to a joint or movement issue below the surface. Treating the actual cause — re-compacting or rebuilding the sub-base, correcting a drainage fall, resetting a failed edge restraint — is what makes a repair last, rather than simply filling or resurfacing the symptom on top.

Best suited to: localised damage on an otherwise sound driveway — potholes, sunken block sections, cracked edges

Less suited to: a driveway that has failed comprehensively across its whole area, where a full rebuild is the more honest option

Permeable / SuDS: No — this is an impermeable surface by design, so drainage falls have to be built in at construction rather than relying on the surface itself.
