Block paving sealing in Blackwood: what to expect
In and around Blackwood, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

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

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