Planning a block paving cleaning job in Peterborough
Across Peterborough, front gardens range from narrow terrace plots to broad modern drives, and the best block, pattern and drainage choice changes with them.
Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on the drive.

What is included?
Cleaning washes out some of the jointing sand, so a proper clean is followed by re-sanding with kiln-dried sand once the surface has dried. Many owners then seal the paving to lock the new sand in and keep it cleaner for longer.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
How we find the cause
- Type of block and its age
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
