What does a re-sanding job involve?
Re-sanding is refilling the joints between blocks with fine, dry jointing sand, usually kiln-dried, and working it down with a brush and a plate compactor fitted with a protective pad. The sand in the joints is what makes blocks lock together; when it washes or sweeps out, the blocks can move, rattle and let weeds in.
Planning-sensitive towns and conservation areas are common in the South East, so we check the front-garden rules before quoting.
- Surface swept and dried
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
How we find the cause
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Walls, doors and planting to protect

Re-sanding in Berkshire: 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.
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.
