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.
Block drives laid twenty or thirty years ago are often ready for re-laying rather than replacing, because sound blocks outlast a weak base.
- Second coat where the product requires it

Sealing in Rutland: 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 Rutland?
Guide price for Rutland: £5–£15 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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.
