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.
In Scotland, front paving must be porous or drain within the property whatever its size, so drainage is part of every design.
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
- Surface swept and dried
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
How we find the cause
- Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
- Type of block and its age
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
