Lifting and relaying uneven or poorly-laid slabs
Slab relaying is about levelling: lifting existing slabs that have become uneven, don't drain properly, or were poorly laid in the first place, and relaying them on a corrected, properly-fallen base. Unlike patio or paving repairs, the slabs themselves aren't necessarily damaged — the problem is how they're sitting, not the slab material.
Slabs that rock, sit unevenly, or have settled at different heights lifted and relaid level.
Slabs corrected to the proper fall so water drains away from the house rather than pooling or running the wrong way.
Where the slabs themselves are in good condition, we relay the same slabs rather than replacing them — keeping cost down.
A corrected, well-compacted base underneath, so the relaid area stays level rather than moving again.
Those pages are for damaged (cracked, sunken, broken) slabs or blocks. Slab relaying is for slabs that are still sound but sitting unevenly, badly, or with poor drainage falls — the fix is relaying them properly, not replacing them.
Where the slabs are in good condition, yes — we lift, re-base and relay the same slabs, which is usually more cost-effective than full replacement.
Usually the slabs weren't laid with the correct fall (slope) to direct water away, or the base has settled unevenly since installation. Relaying corrects this.
Yes, we can relay a specific uneven section rather than the whole area, where that's all that needs correcting.
Slabs become uneven when the ground or bedding material underneath settles unevenly over time — the slabs themselves are often still perfectly sound, they're just no longer sitting level or draining correctly.
