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
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)

Cleaning in Grimsby: questions
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.
How often should block paving in Grimsby be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
