Block paving sealing in Monmouth: what to expect
Around Monmouth, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
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.
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining

Sealing in Monmouth: questions
How often should block paving in Monmouth be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Monmouth?
Guide price for Monmouth: £4.50–£14 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
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.
