Planning a block paving sealing job in Ross-on-Wye
Ross-on-Wye is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Inter-war semis with narrow front gardens are common in the West Midlands, so front garden conversions and drive widenings are often the practical choice.

What is included?
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.
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry

Sealing in Ross-on-Wye: questions
Do you cover Ledbury, Hereford and Leominster?
Yes. We cover Ross-on-Wye and the places around it, including Ledbury, Hereford and Leominster, and the rest of Herefordshire.
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.
