Block paving sealing in Northwich: what to expect
Homes in Northwich include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

What you get with our sealing service
Sealing only works on paving that has been cleaned and re-sanded first and is completely dry, so it is usually part of a clean, re-sand and seal package. It is not permanent: most sealers need renewing every three to seven years as they wear in the wheel tracks, and new paving should be left for a few months before sealing so moisture and any white efflorescence can clear.
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Second coat where the product requires it
How we find the cause

Sealing in Northwich: questions
Do you cover Winsford, Warrington and Runcorn?
Yes. We cover Northwich and the places around it, including Winsford, Warrington and Runcorn, and the rest of Cheshire.
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.
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Northwich?
Guide price for Northwich: £5–£15 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
