Battersea has everything from short terrace frontages to wide drives on newer estates, so the survey sets the layout and the dig.
Many London streets have controlled parking and narrow frontages, so we measure the car space and the crossover before anything else.

What does a block paving cleaning job involve?
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.
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed

Yes. We cover Battersea and the places around it, including Fulham, Brixton and Putney, and the rest of Greater London.
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.

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.
