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.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Type of block and its age

Cleaning in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire: questions
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
Guide price for Glasgow and Dunbartonshire: £2.50–£5 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
Do you cover Rutherglen, Bearsden and Clydebank?
Yes. We cover all of Glasgow and Dunbartonshire, including Rutherglen, Bearsden and Clydebank.
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.
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.
