Planning a block paving sealing job in Ferndown
In and around Ferndown, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
The South West is wetter than the east of England, so falls and drainage are planned before the pattern is chosen.

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.
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Edges, walls and doors protected
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Type of block and its age
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
