The Kensington area includes stucco townhouses, mansion blocks and period conversions where access and detailing matter.

In W8 and W14, we regularly see older sub-bases, settlement around service covers, and edging that has crept over time. Our paving repairs Kensington area service is tailored to these common issues and the finish expected locally.
We start with a site check to identify movement, failed jointing or drainage problems, then recommend the most cost-effective repair route. Typical work includes re-levelling, block replacement, re-sanding, pointing repairs, weed treatment, cleaning, sealing and edge repairs. You’ll receive clear options, tidy working practices and a schedule that fits around parking and access.

In the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we plan work around controlled parking zones, narrow access and busy streets. Many properties have small forecourts where drainage falls and threshold levels are critical, so we check gradients before re-laying. We also take care around basement lightwells, railings and heritage detailing common in period streets. Where required, we coordinate waste removal and deliveries to minimise disruption.

Costs vary with access, the size of the affected area and whether the sub-base needs rebuilding. For small fixes such as replacing a few blocks, re-sanding and local re-levelling, budgets often start around £250–£600. Medium repairs to a driveway section with edging and jointing commonly fall between £700–£1,800. Larger, multi-area repairs with cleaning and sealing can be £2,000–£4,500+.
Most minor repairs are completed in half a day to one day, including lifting, re-levelling, re-sanding and tidy-up. Medium jobs affecting several areas typically take 1–2 days. If we need to rebuild the sub-base, carry out extensive pointing repairs, or allow drying time before sealing, the work can extend to 2–4 days. Weather, access restrictions and material matching can also affect timescales.
In most cases, like-for-like paving repairs are permitted 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. Permeable surfaces and correct water run-off are particularly important for front gardens and driveways. We’ll advise what’s needed and can help you check borough guidance before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying paving repairs where the underlying structure is sound or has been rebuilt as part of the job. The warranty covers workmanship issues such as re-laid areas settling due to poor installation, edging failure from incorrect fixing, and jointing problems caused by application errors. It doesn’t cover damage from tree roots, heavy vehicle overloading, or pre-existing drainage faults outside the repaired area.
We aim to match your existing paving first, sourcing compatible blocks or slabs to keep repairs discreet. For jointing, we can use kiln-dried sand, resin jointing (where suitable), or traditional pointing for stone. Cleaning options include gentle pressure washing and specialist treatments for algae and staining, followed by sealing in matt or satin finishes. We’ll recommend the best approach based on traffic levels, drainage, and the look you want.
