Block paving cleaning in Kilmarnock: what to expect
In Kilmarnock, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
In Scotland block paving is often called monoblock; it is the same thing, and the same rules for the base, edging and drainage apply.

What you get with our cleaning service
Block paving cleaning removes moss, algae, weeds and ground-in dirt from the surface and the joints, usually with a rotary surface cleaner on a pressure washer, which cleans evenly without the stripes a hand lance leaves. A biocide treatment can be applied to slow regrowth.
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
How we find the cause
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
