Towns we cover in Gwent

We quote re-sanding in every town across Gwent, including:

What is included?

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.

Hilly streets in much of Wales mean many drives slope, which shapes the falls, the edging and the water route.

  • Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
  • Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
  • Surface swept and dried
  • Second top-up and surplus swept off

How we find the cause

  • Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
  • Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
  • Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
  • Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
  • How much joint sand is left

How much does a re-sanding job cost in Gwent?

Guide price for Gwent: £3–£9.50 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.

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.
