Uneven paving and loose blocks can quickly spoil an entrance or patio, especially around busy streets near Kensington and Notting Hill. Our team carries out targeted repairs that blend seamlessly with your existing surface, from block replacement to pointing repairs. We’re often called out near Holland Park and the Design Museum where high footfall and tree roots can shift paving over time. The result is a flatter, cleaner surface that looks right for the setting.
Holland Park’s large Victorian houses, mansion conversions and period properties often have original paths and courtyards that need careful matching. We source compatible blocks and jointing materials so repairs don’t stand out against older paving. For homes in W11 and W14, we also see settlement around thresholds, steps and side returns where drainage and ground movement affect levels. Our approach respects heritage details while improving day-to-day practicality.
We start with a site check, identify the cause (subsidence, root heave, failed joints or poor edge restraint), then propose the most cost-effective repair. Typical work includes re-levelling, re-sanding, weed treatment, cleaning and sealing, plus edge repairs to stop future spread. We keep disruption low, protect planting, and leave the area tidy each day. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, durable workmanship and a 10-year warranty on qualifying repairs.
Working across the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea means we plan for controlled parking, narrow access and careful waste handling. Tree-lined streets near Holland Park can cause root lift and joint washout, so we strengthen edges and improve jointing where needed. Period front gardens often have steps, ironwork and delicate boundaries, so we use compact equipment and protective coverings. If drainage falls need tweaking, we adjust levels without disturbing surrounding masonry.

Costs depend on the size of the affected area and the cause of movement. Minor fixes such as re-sanding, weed treatment and small pointing repairs typically range from £150–£450. Re-levelling sunken sections and replacing blocks is commonly £450–£1,200. Larger repairs involving edge restraints, multiple low spots, cleaning and sealing can be £1,200–£2,500+. We provide a site-based estimate after checking levels and drainage.
Most small repairs are completed in half a day to one day, such as lifting and re-laying a few square metres, re-sanding and tidying edges. Medium jobs with several areas to re-level, plus cleaning and sealing, usually take 1–3 days. Timescales vary with access, the number of blocks to replace, drying time after washing, and whether we need to rebuild edge restraints or adjust falls for drainage.
In many cases, straightforward paving repairs are classed as maintenance and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can apply if you’re changing levels significantly, altering drainage to the public highway, or working on a listed building or within a conservation area (common locally). Permeable surfacing and correct runoff management are also important for driveways. We’ll flag any potential issues and help you check requirements before work starts.
Yes. We back qualifying paving repair work with a 10-year warranty. It covers workmanship such as re-levelling, reinstated edge restraints and correctly installed replacement blocks, provided the area isn’t later disturbed by third-party works or exceptional ground movement. We’ll explain what’s included for your specific repair and how to maintain it, including re-sanding schedules and recommended cleaning methods to protect joints and prevent weed regrowth.
We aim to match what you already have, whether that’s concrete block paving, clay pavers, natural stone setts or sandstone/limestone flags. Jointing options include kiln-dried sand, resin-based jointing compounds, or traditional mortar pointing where appropriate. We can also refresh the look with professional cleaning and a breathable sealant in matt or low-sheen finishes. We’ll advise on colour matching, slip resistance and drainage-friendly choices.
