Block paving cleaning in Flint: the local picture
In Flint, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.

What you get with our cleaning service
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.
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls

Cleaning in Flint: questions
How often should block paving in Flint be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Flint?
Guide price for Flint: £2.50–£4.50 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
Will cleaning damage my block paving?
Not when it is done with a rotary cleaner at medium pressure and the joints are re-sanded afterwards. High-pressure lances held close are what cause damage.
Can you seal my drive straight after cleaning?
Only once it is completely dry and re-sanded. Sealing damp paving traps moisture and can leave a white bloom.
