Loose blocks, dips and crumbling joints can quickly spoil a front path or patio, especially after heavy rain and foot traffic. Our team carries out targeted repairs across SE5, from Camberwell Green to Denmark Hill station. We handle everything from re-levelling and pointing repairs to weed treatment and edge repairs. The result is paving that looks sharper and feels solid underfoot.
Camberwell’s mix of Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern apartments often means varied paving styles and access constraints. We regularly repair small front paths, shared entrances and compact back gardens where materials need to match existing blocks or slabs. In conservation-minded streets near the Georgian architecture, we focus on sympathetic finishes and neat detailing. For newer developments, we can refresh contemporary paving with re-sanding, cleaning and sealing for a uniform look.
We start with a site check to identify movement, drainage issues and failed jointing, then recommend the most cost-effective fix. Typical work includes lifting and re-levelling, block replacement, re-sanding, and sealing once the surface is properly dry and stable. We protect borders, keep disruption low, and leave the area clean and usable. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, workmanship you can see, and a 10-year warranty on qualifying repairs.
Working in the London Borough of Southwark, we’re used to tight access, controlled parking and short loading windows. Ground conditions can vary between older garden soils and made-up sub-bases, so we check for voids and poor drainage before re-laying. Around busy spots such as King’s College Hospital, we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. If you need paving repairs Camberwell area, we adapt methods to suit your property and street constraints.

Costs depend on the size of the affected area and the cause of movement. As a guide, minor re-sanding and weed treatment might be £150–£350, while lifting and re-levelling a small section is often £350–£900. Block replacement and edge repairs can add £10–£25 per block plus labour. Cleaning and sealing typically ranges from £6–£12 per m², depending on condition and sealant choice.
Most repairs are completed within half a day to two days. Small jobs like re-sanding, pointing repairs and localised block replacement can often be done in a few hours. Re-levelling larger sections may take 1–2 days, especially if the sub-base needs rebuilding. Drying time affects cleaning and sealing; we may return once the surface is fully dry. Access, parking and waste removal in SE5 can also influence timings.
In most cases, like-for-like paving repairs are permitted and don’t require planning permission. Rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, changing materials in a conservation area, or creating a new or enlarged driveway. For front gardens, Southwark guidance on permeable surfacing and drainage may apply to manage runoff. We’ll advise on compliant options and can help you check any restrictions before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying paving repairs, covering workmanship issues such as re-laid areas settling due to installation faults, edge restraints failing, or jointing problems where we’ve carried out the full repair specification. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from tree roots, subsidence beyond the repaired area, or impact damage. We’ll explain what’s covered for your specific job and provide aftercare guidance to keep paving stable.
We can usually match existing materials, including concrete block paving, clay pavers, natural stone setts and flags. For jointing, options include kiln-dried sand, resin jointing compounds, or traditional mortar pointing depending on the surface and use. Cleaning can be followed by a matt or satin sealant to reduce staining and algae. If you’re updating the look, we can suggest border contrasts, edge restraints and patterns that suit period terraces or modern apartments.
