Planning a block paving cleaning job in Kirkby
In Kirkby, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

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.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
How we find the cause
- Type of block and its age
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first

Cleaning in Kirkby: 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.
