Block paving cleaning in Uxbridge: what to expect
Uxbridge has everything from short terrace frontages to wide drives on newer estates, so the survey sets the layout and the dig.

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

Cleaning in Uxbridge: questions
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.
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Uxbridge?
Guide price for Uxbridge: £3–£6 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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 Uxbridge be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
