Planning a block paving sealing job in Sandown
Around Sandown, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Chalk, clay and sandy ground all occur across the South East, so the dig and sub-base depth are set on the survey rather than assumed.
Work in the Isle of Wight is by arrangement: we confirm availability and any travel charge before a visit, and many jobs can be priced from photos first.

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
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Drying time and a date when cars can return

Sealing in Sandown: questions
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Sandown?
Guide price for Sandown: £5.50–£16 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
How often should block paving in Sandown be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
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.
