What you get with our sealing service
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.
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- 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
- Edges, walls and doors protected
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth

Sealing in Bushey: questions
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.
