Block paving cleaning in Dundonald: the local picture
Dundonald is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Wet winters in Northern Ireland make falls, edge restraints and full joints especially important.

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.
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
How we find the cause
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Type of block and its age
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
