Planning a block paving cleaning job in Mitcham
Mitcham has a big mix of housing, from older terraces near the centre to newer estates further out, so no two drives here start from the same ground.

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.
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Type of block and its age
- Walls, doors and planting to protect

Cleaning in Mitcham: questions
Do you cover Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham?
Yes. We cover Mitcham and the places around it, including Morden, Wimbledon and Streatham, 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.
How often should block paving in Mitcham 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.
