Overview
Driveway Repair Company in Guildford
A cracked, sunken or pothole-ridden driveway doesn't always need replacing. Hills Driveways & Patios carries out driveway repairs across Guildford, assessing the damage first so you get an honest answer on whether a repair will do the job or whether a full resurface makes more sense.
We're Checkatrade-approved, and the same team that installs and cleans driveways across Guildford also carries out repairs, so we understand how each surface type is built and what's gone wrong when it fails.
Reviews
What Our Guildford Customers Say
Signs Your Driveway Needs Repair
- Cracks appearing in the surface, particularly ones that are growing or spreading
- Sinking, dipping or uneven areas where you can feel the surface give underfoot
- Sunken or loose individual blocks on a block paving driveway
- Potholes or crumbling edges
- Water pooling on the surface instead of draining away
If you're seeing any of these on your Guildford driveway, it's worth getting it looked at before the damage spreads further.

Driveway Repairs by Surface Type
Block Paving Repairs
Block paving is one of the easier surfaces to repair, since individual blocks can be lifted and relaid or replaced without disturbing the rest of the driveway. This makes it well suited to sectional repairs rather than a full resurface.
Resin Bound Repairs
Resin bound surfaces can develop localised cracking or wear over time, particularly around edges or areas with heavy traffic. We can repair damaged sections while keeping the finish consistent with the rest of the surface.
Gravel Driveway Repairs
Gravel driveways typically need repair when the sub-base has failed, causing ruts or bare patches, or when edge restraints have come loose and the gravel has spread. We address the underlying groundwork rather than just topping up loose stone.
Does My Driveway Need Repair or Replacement?
Not every damaged driveway needs a full replacement. Generally, if the damage is limited to a small area and the sub-base underneath is still sound, a repair is the more cost-effective option. If the damage is widespread, or the underlying sub-base has failed across most of the driveway, a full resurface is usually better value in the long run than repeatedly patching the same problem. We'll give you an honest assessment either way when we visit, and if a new driveway does make more sense, take a look at our driveway installation options.
Not Sure If You Need a Repair, a Clean, or a New Driveway?
If your driveway just needs a clean rather than a repair, take a look at our driveway cleaning service, or browse our full range of driveway options including block paving, resin bound and gravel if you're considering a fresh start.
Cost
How Much Do Driveway Repairs Cost in Guildford?
The cost of driveway repairs depends on several factors:
- The type and extent of the damage
- The surface material
- How much of the driveway is affected
- Whether groundwork or drainage repairs are needed alongside surface repairs
Because of this, we don't quote over the phone. We visit your Guildford property, assess the damage, and give you a written, itemised quote so you know exactly what you're paying for before any work starts.
