Block paving cleaning in Maesteg: what to expect
Around Maesteg, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.

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.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
How we find the cause
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Type of block and its age
