Planning a block paving sealing job in Sutton-in-Ashfield
Sutton-in-Ashfield is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Clay and mudstone ground is common in the East Midlands, so we allow for a deeper sub-base where the survey shows soft ground.

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