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.
Terraced streets across the North West often have very short frontages, so we check parking depth before quoting a conversion.
