Block paving cleaning in Abertillery: the local picture
In and around Abertillery, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

What you get with our cleaning service
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.
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)

Cleaning in Abertillery: 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 Abertillery?
Guide price for Abertillery: £2.50–£4.50 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.
