Block Paving Cleaning

Block paving looks great when it is clean, but weeds, moss and lost jointing sand soon make it look tired. Our block paving service cleans the surface and restores the joints so the result lasts.

Why block paving needs special care

The sand in the joints holds each block in place. Cleaning removes some of it, so a proper block paving clean finishes with re-sanding using kiln-dried sand. Skipping this step lets weeds return quickly and can let blocks shift.

Sealing block paving

Once re-sanded, block paving can be sealed. Sealing helps bind the joint sand, slows weed regrowth and makes future cleaning easier. It is optional, and we will explain whether it suits your paving.

What we clean

  • Block paving driveways
  • Block paving patios and paths
  • Tumbled and cobble-effect blocks
  • Permeable block paving

Our process

  1. Weed removal — Weeds and moss are removed from the joints.
  2. Rotary clean — The surface is cleaned evenly with a rotary surface cleaner.
  3. Dry and re-sand — Once dry, kiln-dried sand is brushed into the joints.
  4. Optional seal — A suitable sealer can be applied to lock in the sand.

What to expect

Re-sanding has to wait until the paving is dry, so it is sometimes done on a second visit. Sealing also needs dry weather.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I need re-sanding?

Cleaning washes out some joint sand. Re-sanding keeps the blocks locked together and slows down weed growth.

Is sealing worth it?

Often, especially on busy driveways - but not always. We will tell you honestly whether it is worth it for your paving.

Can you remove oil from block paving?

We pre-treat oil stains, which usually lightens them a lot. Very old or deep stains may not disappear completely.
