Planning a block paving cleaning job in Salisbury
In Salisbury, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Sloping plots are common in the South West, which affects edging, steps and where the water runs.

What you get with our cleaning service
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.
- Rotary surface clean at a pressure that will not blow out the joints
- Optional biocide and sealer
- Pre-treatment where needed
- Rinse down of edges, steps and walls
- Weeds and moss removed from the joints
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- How much joint sand is left
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining

Cleaning in Salisbury: 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.
