What you get with our sealing service

Sealing block paving means applying a clear liquid sealer to clean, dry paving. A good sealer soaks into the blocks and the jointing sand, binding the sand so it does not wash out, reducing staining and making the surface easier to keep clean. Some sealers also deepen the colour or leave a light sheen.

  • Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
  • Drying time and a date when cars can return
  • Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
  • Second coat where the product requires it
  • Edges, walls and doors protected

How we find the cause

  • Type of block and its age
  • How much joint sand is left
  • Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
  • Walls, doors and planting to protect
  • Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
