Block paving sealing in Ormskirk: the local picture
In and around Ormskirk, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so falls, channel drains and permeable options matter more than usual.

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