What does a block paving cleaning job involve?
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
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints

Cleaning in Crowborough: questions
How often should block paving in Crowborough be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
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.
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Crowborough?
Guide price for Crowborough: £2.50–£5.50 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
