Planning a block paving sealing job in Hull
Hull has everything from short terrace frontages to wide drives on newer estates, so the survey sets the layout and the dig.
Yorkshire has everything from stone-built terraces to large new estates, so block choice often follows the house: clay or tumbled blocks for older homes, crisp concrete for newer ones.

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
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- 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
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Type of block and its age
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- How much joint sand is left

Sealing in Hull: 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.
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 Hull be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
