Block paving cleaning in Bellshill: the local picture
Around Bellshill, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
In Scotland block paving is often called monoblock; it is the same thing, and the same rules for the base, edging and drainage apply.

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.
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
How we find the cause
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Type of block and its age
- How much joint sand is left
- Walls, doors and planting to protect

Do you cover Motherwell, Coatbridge and Blantyre?
Yes. We cover Bellshill and the places around it, including Motherwell, Coatbridge and Blantyre, and the rest of Lanarkshire.
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.
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.
