Block paving cleaning in Haverhill: what to expect
Haverhill is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on 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.
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
