Planning a block paving sealing job in Leamington Spa
In Leamington Spa, many front gardens have already been paved once, so new paving often starts with breaking out the old surface.
Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

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

Sealing in Leamington Spa: 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 often should block paving in Leamington Spa be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
Do you cover Warwick, Kenilworth and Stratford-upon-Avon?
Yes. We cover Leamington Spa and the places around it, including Warwick, Kenilworth and Stratford-upon-Avon, and the rest of Warwickshire.
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.
