Block paving sealing in Newtown: the local picture
Around Newtown, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

What you get with our sealing service
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
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- Check that the paving is clean, re-sanded and dry
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
