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.

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.

  • Second top-up and surplus swept off
  • Kiln-dried sand brushed into every joint
  • Plate compactor with a rubber pad to settle the sand
  • Surface swept and dried

How we find the cause

  • Which sealer finish suits a slope or patio
  • Whether the paving is permeable (no sand, no sealing with the wrong product)
  • Moss, algae, weeds and oil staining
  • Walls, doors and planting to protect
  • Type of block and its age
