Why patios fail
Rocking slabs, hollow-sounding stones and weeds in the joints usually point to a weak base or failed pointing. Repairing the surface without fixing the cause means the problem comes back.
We lift affected slabs, check and rebuild the base where needed, relay on a full bed and repoint. Where a patio has failed throughout, we will tell you honestly when relaying is the better value.
On Wandsworth's clay soils, patios near the house often settle; we check falls so water runs away from the walls.

We recommend the least work that gives a lasting result.
Repair or replace?
If most slabs are sound and the base is solid, repairs make sense. If the whole patio was laid on a poor base, relaying is usually better value than repeated repairs.

We try to source a close match; with natural stone, weathering will differ at first.
