Professional Block Paving Restoration

Block paving can gradually become dark, slippery and overgrown as dirt, moss, algae and weeds build up across the surface and joints. Our professional cleaning process is designed to remove this contamination and restore the original appearance of the paving as far as its age and condition allow.

After cleaning and sufficient drying time, kiln-dried sand can be brushed back into suitable joints. This helps stabilise the blocks, refill areas where old jointing sand has been removed and leave the driveway with a cleaner, more complete finish.

Every driveway is different. The age of the paving, level of staining and joint condition all influence the final result. We'll assess your driveway and recommend the most suitable cleaning and restoration process.

FAQs

How often should block paving be professionally cleaned?

1

This depends on the location, drainage, shade and surrounding vegetation. Many driveways benefit from professional cleaning every one to three years, with lighter maintenance between deeper cleans.


Does pressure washing damage block paving?

2

Incorrect pressure, unsuitable equipment or poor technique can damage surfaces and remove excessive jointing material. We assess the paving and use a controlled method appropriate to its condition.


Will cleaning remove all weeds?

3

Cleaning removes visible weeds, moss and loose growth, but roots and airborne seeds can return over time. Re-sanding and ongoing maintenance can help improve the finish, but no cleaning process can guarantee permanent weed prevention.


When can the driveway be re-sanded?

4

Kiln-dried sand should only be applied once the paving and joints are sufficiently dry. Depending on the weather, this may be completed later the same day or during a return visit.


Some specialist stains require additional treatment and complete removal cannot always be guaranteed. Send clear photos so we can assess the staining before quoting.
