What is included?
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.
In Scotland, front paving must be porous or drain within the property whatever its size, so drainage is part of every design.
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Surface swept and dried
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
How we find the cause
- How much joint sand is left
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
