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.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
- Surface swept and dried
How we find the cause
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Type of block and its age
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio

Re-sanding in Dundee and Angus: questions
How often should block paving in Dundee and Angus 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.
