What is included?
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.
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Pre-treatment where needed
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Type of block and its age
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining

Cleaning in Llantwit Major: questions
How much does a block paving cleaning job cost in Llantwit Major?
Guide price for Llantwit Major: £2.50–£4.50 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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 Llantwit Major be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
