Block paving sealing in Briton Ferry: what to expect
Homes in Briton Ferry include plenty of semis and detached houses with room for a drive, plus older terraces where parking is tighter.
Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

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

Sealing in Briton Ferry: questions
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.
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 Briton Ferry be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
