What you get with our cleaning service

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
  • Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
  • Weeds and moss removed from the joints
  • Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
  • Optional biocide and sealer

Cleaning in Winchester: 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.

Do you cover Eastleigh, Southampton and Totton?

Yes. We cover Winchester and the places around it, including Eastleigh, Southampton and Totton, and the rest of Hampshire.

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 Winchester be cleaned?

Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
