Block paving sealing in Middleton: the local picture
In Middleton, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.

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.
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
Before we price your block paving sealing job
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Type of block and its age
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining

Sealing in Middleton: questions
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Middleton?
Guide price for Middleton: £5–£15 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
Do you cover Heywood, Royton and Oldham?
Yes. We cover Middleton and the places around it, including Heywood, Royton and Oldham, and the rest of Greater Manchester.
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.
