What affects the cost of patio paver repair?
Number of pavers and area
Resetting a small sunken area is quick; relaying a large section is priced by square footage.
Base condition
Most paver problems come from a washed-out or poorly compacted base, which has to be regraded and recompacted.
Paver matching and edging
Matching a discontinued or sun-faded paver is difficult, and failed edge restraint has to be replaced or the pavers spread again.
