Driveway Repairs Glasgow

Professional Driveway Repair Services

A damaged driveway isn't just unsightly - it can be a safety hazard and cause water damage to your property. At Strathworks, we provide comprehensive driveway repair services across Glasgow, fixing issues quickly and cost-effectively.

Common Driveway Problems We Fix

Sunken or Uneven Surfaces

Driveways sink when the sub-base beneath fails, often due to poor initial installation or ground movement. We excavate affected areas, rebuild the sub-base properly, and relay the surface to match existing materials.

Cracked Block Paving

Individual broken blocks can be lifted and replaced. We keep an extensive stock of common blocks and can usually match your existing paving. For older driveways, we'll bring samples to find the closest match.

Loose or Missing Blocks

Blocks become loose when edge restraints fail or jointing sand washes away. We re-edge, re-sand, and compact to restore stability.

Poor Drainage

Standing water on your driveway indicates drainage issues. We can install additional drainage, adjust levels, or install permeable surfaces to resolve water problems permanently.

Weed Growth

Weeds growing between blocks indicate joint sand loss. We remove weeds, treat with herbicide, re-sand joints, and can apply polymeric sand for long-term weed prevention.

Tarmac Cracks and Potholes

Tarmac deteriorates over time, especially in Scottish weather. We can fill cracks, patch potholes, or resurface entire areas to restore smooth, safe surfaces.

Repair or Replace?

Not every damaged driveway needs complete replacement. We'll honestly assess whether repair or replacement is the better option:

When Repair Makes Sense:

• Localized damage affecting less than 30% of the driveway
• Structural integrity of sub-base is sound
• Driveway is less than 15 years old
• Materials are still available for matching
• Drainage system is functioning correctly

When Replacement is Better:

• Multiple areas of subsidence or cracking
• Sub-base has failed throughout
• Driveway is over 20 years old
• Widespread drainage problems
• You want to upgrade the appearance
