That sinking feeling when your driveway starts crumbling? Dartford's clay soil and heavy traffic take their toll on paved surfaces. Whether it's Victorian terrace parking or modern estate drives, damaged paving needs swift attention before small cracks become expensive disasters.
Response within 24 hours
Potholes appearing faster than you can dodge them? Dartford's mix of older properties near the town centre and newer developments towards Greenhithe face different paving challenges. Block paving shifts with ground movement, tarmac cracks under constant use, and concrete splits when tree roots push through. Local knowledge matters when diagnosing why your surfaces fail.
Repair techniques vary wildly depending on the damage. Sunken blocks might need sub-base reinforcement, particularly where Dartford's underlying chalk meets clay deposits. Tarmac patches require proper edge sealing to prevent water ingress during our notorious autumn downpours. Sometimes a targeted repair saves thousands compared to full resurfacing - but only if diagnosed correctly from the start.
Twenty years fixing drives from Crayford's suburban streets to Bexley's grander entrances means spotting problems others miss. DA1 residents trust recommendations from neighbours who've watched their repairs last through multiple winters.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Small pothole repairs start around £150-300, while relaying shifted block sections typically runs £400-800. Extensive tarmac patching might reach £1,200-2,500 depending on area size and base condition.
Absolutely - from Dartford town centre right through to the Crayford borders. Regular work takes us across DA1's residential streets, plus neighbouring patches of Greenhithe and Bexley.
Emergency temporary fixes within 24-48 hours prevent immediate hazards. Permanent repairs typically scheduled within 5-10 days, weather permitting. Larger projects might need 2-3 weeks' lead time.
Each repair carries decade-long coverage against defects. This means if properly maintained surfaces fail due to our workmanship within ten years, we return to rectify without charge.
Block matching proves tricky with older installations, though we source from multiple suppliers to find closest alternatives. For tarmac, seamless blending techniques minimise visible patches. Sometimes strategic repairs across wider areas create better aesthetic results than isolated fixes.
