Block paving cleaning in Wellington: what to expect
Wellington is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Inter-war semis with narrow front gardens are common in the West Midlands, so front garden conversions and drive widenings are often the practical choice.

What you get with our cleaning service
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
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
How we find the cause
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- How much joint sand is left

Cleaning in Wellington: questions
How often should block paving in Wellington be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
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.
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Wellington?
Guide price for Wellington: £2.50–£5 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
