Block paving sealing in Speke: what to expect
Around Speke, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
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.
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer

Sealing in Speke: questions
How much does a block paving sealing job cost in Speke?
Guide price for Speke: £5–£15 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
