Block paving sealing in Selby: what to expect
Selby is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
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.
- Drying time and a date when cars can return
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Second coat where the product requires it
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
