Planning a block paving cleaning job in Truro
In and around Truro, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
The South West is wetter than the east of England, so falls and drainage are planned before the pattern is chosen.

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.
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- 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
