What does a re-sanding job involve?
Joints empty naturally over time, and especially after pressure washing. Re-sanding on its own is a quick job on a clean, dry surface; on dirty paving it follows a clean.
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
- Surface swept and dried
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
How we find the cause
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)

Re-sanding in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire: questions
How often should block paving in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
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.
