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.
Yorkshire has everything from stone-built terraces to large new estates, so block choice often follows the house: clay or tumbled blocks for older homes, crisp concrete for newer ones.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed in once dry (re-sanding package)
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Type of block and its age
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
