Block paving not draining problem

[flh801978]

The drive and path ways have been block paved about 30 years or so this area has always drained but the last few years its started holding water… any ideas of what to do? Is there a drainage block that i could put in?

Has it always been a bit lower than the concrete? Reckon the joints are silted up by now so lifting the affected blocks, re dressing the bed below then jointing with fresh sand may well cure the problem

How about using a 6mm masonry drill bit and drilling in the corner joint to make a soak away.

could try jet washing out the joints and new sand when the weather is drier.
