Why have my pavers sunk?

The base or drainage may have failed, or the ground may have moved. Lifting the bricks alone may not fix the cause.

Can pavers be laid over old concrete?

That depends on the slab condition, height at doors and drainage. Ask the installer to inspect the site first.

Are driveway pavers different from patio pavers?

A driveway must be built for vehicle loads. Tell the installer what vehicles use it so the base and paver choice suit the job.
