What does a re-sanding job involve?
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.
Flat ground across much of the East means falls have to be built in carefully so water does not sit on the drive.
- 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 the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first

Re-sanding in Norfolk: questions
How much does a re-sanding job cost in Norfolk?
Guide price for Norfolk: £3–£11 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.
How often should block paving in Norfolk be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
