Block paving cleaning in Clydebank: what to expect
Homes in Clydebank include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
In Scotland block paving is often called monoblock; it is the same thing, and the same rules for the base, edging and drainage apply.

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.
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
