Block paving sealing in Weymouth

Tired block paving in Weymouth rarely needs replacing. A deep clean, fresh jointing sand and, if you want it, a sealer, make most drives look years younger.

Planning a block paving sealing job in Weymouth

In Weymouth, 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 is included?

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.

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

How we find the cause

  • Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
  • Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
  • Type of block and its age
  • How much joint sand is left
  • Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth

Sealing in Weymouth: questions

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.

Do you cover Dorchester and Poole?

Yes. We cover Weymouth and the places around it, including Dorchester and Poole, and the rest of Dorset.

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 often should block paving in Weymouth be cleaned?

Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
