Block paving cleaning in Denton: what to expect
Homes in Denton include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

What is included?
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.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
