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.
