What we do

Restoration, Repair and Paving Relaying

Level block paving driveway after restoration

Fixing Bumps, Dips and Uneven Paving

Bumps, dips and uneven areas can develop in driveways and patios as paving settles or the underlying surface moves over time. In suitable cases, affected paving can be lifted and re-laid rather than replacing the entire surface. We can assess block paving, natural stone and Indian stone paving to identify areas that may benefit from relaying and levelling.

Driveway and Patio Cleaning

Thorough cleaning can make a significant difference to the appearance of tired paving. We provide both SoftWash and high-pressure jet washing, depending on the surface and type of contamination. Our cleaning services can help tackle tyre marks, rubber deposits, black spots, mould, moss, lichen, algae, weeds, oil and general dirt from suitable driveways and patios.

Natural Stone Paving Relaying

Natural stone and Indian stone paving can also become uneven, with individual slabs developing dips or raised areas over time. BGH Driveway & Patio Services can assess affected paving and carry out suitable relaying work. Where appropriate, slabs can be lifted, the underlying area addressed and the existing stone carefully re-laid to improve the level and appearance of the surface.

Driveway and Patio Repairs

Our restoration services can include repairs, patching, repointing and re-sanding, depending on the condition of your driveway or patio. We aim to restore usable existing surfaces wherever practical rather than automatically recommending complete replacement. Our traditional stonemasonry experience allows us to work with a range of paving and hard landscaping materials.

Repointing and Re-Sanding

Worn or missing jointing can affect the appearance and condition of paved areas. We provide repointing for suitable patios, stonework and other surfaces, while block paving can benefit from re-sanding following appropriate cleaning. These restoration methods can help improve the condition of existing paving without requiring the whole surface to be replaced.

Sealed pattern imprinted concrete driveway with a deep satin finish

Driveway and Patio Sealing

Once a suitable surface has been thoroughly cleaned and restored, we can apply a surface sealer where appropriate. Sealing can help protect suitable paving from staining and everyday surface contamination. We can discuss suitable sealing options for driveways, patios, courtyards, terraces, block paving, concrete, tarmac, forecourts and other appropriate hard surfaces.

BGH have completely renovated our 22 year old patio and we are so pleased with the result. Ben and his team member cleaned and jet washed it first, drilled out the old grouting and re pointed it all, and then finally dismantled an old step and rebuilt it. They are very polite and prompt, and work incredibly hard while on the property, explaining in detail what they are doing and anything extra that is needed. They cleared up every night and at the end of the job. To be honest we had forgotten the original colour of our patio and had not thought it could be renovated in such a way, so the end result has really stunned us. I can highly recommend BGH and we will definitely have them back to clean the patio on a yearly basis!

Ben from BGH Driveways communicated brilliantly with us. He was only too happy to answer any questions and explained the processes etc to us. From start to finish we knew when he would be on site and what he was doing. Some workman on another job had resulted in rust stains on our Sandstone patio and initial attempts with rust removal products had been unsuccessful and so a specialist was needed. Ben came on a friday afternoon to test on some of the work affected areas. He then arranged to come back and clean the rest of the patio the following day. We then had to let the patio dry out and he sealed it for us. Whilst on site Ben also cleaned some block paving in the front garden under the window and the path. Again after drying out he re-sanded and sealed this so no weeds for approx 3 year. Friendly, personable and professional. We will be using Ben again when the time comes and have already recommended BGH to others. Scroll to end of photos for close up before and after photos of rust removal.

Ben has done an amazing job cleaning, re-sanding, and sealing our patio. He was extremely thorough throughout the entire process, and the finished result looks fantastic. From the moment he arrived to the moment he completed the job, Ben was professional, reliable, and clearly took great pride in his work. I had approached several other people for quotes, but none were as reliable or professional as Ben. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality workmanship and excellent customer service. I’ll definitely be using his services again in the future!

Ben did a great job on our patio, with a full clean and repointing on around 50sqm. The patio looks like it’s brand new and we’re very pleased with it.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix bumps and dips in block paving?

Yes. We can assess bumps, dips and areas of movement in block paving. Where suitable, affected blocks can be lifted and re-laid to improve the level of the surface.

Can you repair an uneven patio?

Yes. We can assess uneven areas in suitable patios and discuss whether lifting and relaying affected paving could provide a practical restoration solution.

Do you repair sunken block paving?
