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
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
