Block paving cleaning in Keighley: what to expect
In Keighley, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
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)
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Pre-treatment where needed
