Block paving cleaning in Chapeltown: the local picture
Chapeltown 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.
Sloping drives are common in parts of Yorkshire, which affects falls, steps and drainage at the bottom of the drive.

What does a block paving cleaning job involve?
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
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
