Block paving sealing in Grimsby: what to expect
Grimsby has everything from short terrace frontages to wide drives on newer estates, so the survey sets the layout and the dig.
Sloping drives are common in parts of Yorkshire, which affects falls, steps and drainage at the bottom of the drive.

What you get with our sealing service
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.
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
How we find the cause
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Type of block and its age
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- How much joint sand is left

Sealing in Grimsby: 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.
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Grimsby?
Guide price for Grimsby: £4.50–£14 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
Do you cover Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe?
Yes. We cover Grimsby and the places around it, including Cleethorpes and Scunthorpe, and the rest of Lincolnshire.
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.
