What is included?

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.

In Scotland, front paving must be porous or drain within the property whatever its size, so drainage is part of every design.

  • Edges, walls and doors protected
  • Second coat where the product requires it
  • 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

How we find the cause

  • How much joint sand is left
  • Type of block and its age
  • Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
  • Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
  • Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
