Planning a block paving cleaning job in Arnold
In Arnold, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Clay and mudstone ground is common in the East Midlands, so we allow for a deeper sub-base where the survey shows soft ground.

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.
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Optional biocide and sealer
How we find the cause
- Type of block and its age
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- How much joint sand is left
