Repair or replace?

Start with the condition of the pavers and base.

A driveway can look uneven while most of its pavers remain perfectly reusable. Settlement around garage slabs, steps, curbs and vehicle paths often affects only part of the installation.

We assess the failed footprint, drainage and support before recommending whether a focused repair or a broader rebuild makes sense.

What to look for

Signs this repair may be needed.

A visible change in the surface can point to a problem with support, restraint or drainage beneath it.

01

Garage-edge sinking

The driveway drops where the pavers meet the garage floor or concrete curb.

02

Vehicle-path settlement

Repeated loading exposes weak or poorly compacted base areas.

03

Spreading edges

Outside pavers move because the restraint or shoulder has failed.

04

Water at transitions

Low points hold runoff near the garage, walk or street.

The repair process

Fix the problem in the right order.

Every repair begins with the condition beneath the surface—not with a coating or cosmetic shortcut.

  1. 01
    Map the failed footprint

    Identify low areas, transitions, drainage routes and unstable edges.

  2. 02
    Lift the affected pavers

    Remove reusable units and expose the driveway support beneath them.

  3. 03
    Rebuild for vehicle loads

    Correct weak material, compaction and grade in the repair area.

  4. 04
    Relay and reconnect

    Restore the pattern and elevations at the garage, curb and walkway.

Make the right scope decision

Repair the failed section—or explain when replacement is smarter.

The age, paver condition, extent of movement and availability of matching material all influence whether a focused driveway repair is the best investment.

Common questions

Before you request a quote.

Send photos and a short description if you are unsure which repair applies.

Can part of an interlock driveway be repaired?

Yes. When the surrounding surface is stable, the repair can often focus on settlement near the garage, curb, walkway or another localized area.

Will the repaired area match?

Reusing the original pavers provides the closest match. Replacement units may differ in colour when the existing product is discontinued or weathered.

Why does a driveway sink near the garage?

Transitions are vulnerable when fill was not fully compacted, water reaches the base, or the pavers lack stable support beside the slab.

When should the whole driveway be replaced?

Broad foundation failure, widespread damaged pavers or a desired redesign may make replacement more practical. We assess this before recommending scope.
