Costs depend on the type of paving, how many blocks are loose, and whether the sub-base needs rebuilding. In Soho, small repairs such as re-sanding, weed treatment and spot re-levelling often start around £250–£600. Medium repairs involving block replacement, edge repairs and localised sub-base work are commonly £700–£1,800. Larger areas needing extensive lifting, re-levelling, cleaning and sealing can range from £2,000–£5,000+.
Most paving repairs in Soho are completed within 1 day for small areas, or 2–3 days for larger sections that need lifting and re-levelling. Timescales vary with access (stairs, basements, narrow passages), the amount of cutting and matching required, and drying times after cleaning or sealing. If we need to rebuild the sub-base or correct drainage falls, allow extra time for compaction and finishing. We’ll confirm a clear schedule before starting.
In many cases, like-for-like paving repairs are classed as maintenance and won’t need planning permission. However, City of Westminster rules can apply if you’re altering levels, changing materials significantly, affecting drainage to the public highway, or working on listed buildings and certain conversions. If the area is within a conservation setting, extra care may be needed. We’ll advise on what’s likely required and can help you check any relevant constraints before work begins.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year workmanship warranty on paving repairs, covering issues such as movement caused by inadequate preparation, failed edges, or premature joint loss where we’ve carried out the repair. The warranty applies when the surface is used normally and maintained sensibly, including keeping joints topped up where appropriate. It doesn’t cover damage from third-party works, severe ground movement, or impact damage. We explain the coverage clearly in writing.
We can repair and blend most common surfaces, including concrete block paving, clay pavers, natural stone setts and flags. For joints, options include kiln-dried sand, resin jointing compounds, or traditional pointing depending on the paving type and exposure. We also offer cleaning and sealing in matte or low-sheen finishes to reduce staining and slow algae growth. If matching is tricky, we’ll source closest equivalents and suggest discreet layout tweaks for a tidy result.
