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.
- 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
- Sealer applied evenly by roller or low-pressure sprayer
