Block paving cleaning in Halesowen: the local picture
Halesowen is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
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 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.
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
How we find the cause
- 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
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first

Cleaning in Halesowen: questions
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.
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.
