Block paving cleaning in Ruislip: the local picture
Homes in Ruislip include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Front gardens in much of London are short, so parking depth and the dropped kerb usually decide whether a drive is possible.

What is included?
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.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
How we find the cause
- How much joint sand is left
- Type of block and its age
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
