That sunken corner of your patio where rainwater pools every winter? It's fixable. Keston's clay soil and mature trees create unique challenges for outdoor surfaces, but proper repairs can restore both function and charm to your garden space.
Response within 24 hours
Victorian properties near Keston Common often feature original York stone patios that have shifted over decades. Modern homes closer to Hayes typically battle with cracked concrete slabs or loose block paving. Whatever era your property belongs to, damaged patios compromise both safety and enjoyment of your outdoor space. The right repair approach depends entirely on your patio's construction, age, and the underlying ground conditions specific to this part of BR2.
Repairing rather than replacing saves considerable expense whilst preserving the character of established gardens. Lifting and relevelling sunken areas eliminates trip hazards and stops water pooling against house walls. Fresh pointing between slabs prevents weed growth and stabilises the entire surface. Where tree roots from Keston's abundant greenery have caused upheaval, strategic root barriers protect your investment long-term.

Minor relevelling and repointing on a standard 20m² patio runs £600-900. Extensive repairs involving new sub-base sections or dealing with root damage might reach £1,500-2,500, still considerably less than full replacement.
