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.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.
- Surface swept and dried
- Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
- Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
- Second top-up and surplus swept off
How we find the cause
- Whether any blocks are loose or sunken first
- Type of block and its age
- Shade and drainage, which affect regrowth
- Walls, doors and planting to protect
- Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio

Re-sanding in Powys: questions
How much does a re-sanding job cost in Powys?
Guide price for Powys: £3–£9.50 per m² including VAT, with a minimum charge for small areas.
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 Powys be cleaned?
Every two to four years for most drives, more often for shaded or north-facing paving.
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.
