Have you considered jet washing the blocks as this can often bring your driveway back to life.

Bringing cemented blocks up and reusing would be very time consuming as you would have to chisel most blocks I would say.

Anyway goodluck!

Depends on what your term for cemented in means. Are the blocks laid on hard mortar bed with grouted joints? What blocks are they? If they’re just standard driveline pavers then there’s only a low chance of reusing them. If they’re something natural like granite or at a push clay then you could get them up and reused. But you’ll not know if this can be done until you actually start the work. Plus the labour involved in taking up and reusing blocks or setts is double as you have all the double handing and cleaning off along with bumping everything out again!

Sometimes it’s best to just break the lot out and re do it all.

Hello

Like the comment says above you can try and jet wash then and hopefully they will come up but sometimes it will take to long and you will have some that are more worn then other, so you will have to replace some. But then the old ones will not look as good as the ones u replace them with.

But it’s all to do with money if u can afford to replace them then that would give u a cleaner job.

Resin would be expensive tarmac is a good choice if not new paving blocks not worth cleaning old ones get rid of

Jet wash and buy some Seal n' tint concrete stain. £20 a tub and makes worn paving blocks as good as new.

Resin is a modern And low maintenance driveway but Hawe you think just to cleaning and sealing the block if them are 30 yrs old bun still in good condition them must be clay block ,better than concrete
Good luck!!

Agree with the men on here, easiest thing is here is jet washing but some block paved is coloured, you could take colour off the block with excessive jet washing. You could struggle with them being cemented in because it would take a lot of time to get every part off if you wanted to re-use.However If you do want to give your drive a revamp though,resin is the new in product and looks fantastic. Guaranteed to last a long time if prepped correctly, slip resistant and has “suds” - sustainable urban drainage system.

Pressure cleaning and sealing the drive is a cost efficient and effective way of bring the way drive back to life and less time consuming then having a new drive fitted.
