Block paving sealing in Kingswinford: what to expect
Around Kingswinford, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.
Inter-war semis with narrow front gardens are common in the West Midlands, so front garden conversions and drive widenings are often the practical choice.

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.
- Edges, walls and doors protected
- 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
How we find the cause
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- How much joint sand is left
- Type of block and its age
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth

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