Block paving cleaning in Witham: the local picture
Witham is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
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.
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
