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

Cleaning in Shepherds Bush: questions
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Shepherds Bush?
Guide price for Shepherds Bush: £3–£6 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
Do you cover Chiswick, Fulham and Willesden?
Yes. We cover Shepherds Bush and the places around it, including Chiswick, Fulham and Willesden, 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.
