Professional Driveway Cleaning

Using professional-grade equipment, we remove years of built-up dirt, grime and organic growth to bring back the original colour of your block paving. Our cleaning methods get outstanding results while treating your paving with care, leaving it fresh, clean and well maintained.

More Than Just Cleaning

Cleaning is often just the start. Depending on the condition of your driveway, a refurbishment can include:

  • Repairs – lifting and relaying sunken, cracked or damaged blocks.
  • Re-sanding – refilling the joints with kiln-dried sand to lock the blocks together and help keep weeds out.
  • Sealing – a protective seal that helps resist stains and weather and makes future cleaning easier.
  • Full refurbishment – all of the above, to restore the whole driveway to its best.

Regular maintenance doesn’t just improve the look of your property. It also helps extend the life of your paving by stopping small problems from turning into bigger ones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it worth refurbishing a driveway instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. If the base is sound, a clean, repairs, re-sanding and sealing can make block paving look close to new for much less than the cost of a new driveway. We’ll give you an honest view when we visit.

How often should a block paving driveway be cleaned?

It depends on how much shade, traffic and tree cover it gets, but many driveways benefit from a professional clean every few years, with regular sweeping in between.

What does re-sanding do?

Kiln-dried sand in the joints locks the blocks together, keeps the surface stable and helps stop weeds from taking hold. Joints are usually re-sanded after a deep clean.

Should I have my driveway sealed?

Sealing helps protect the surface from stains and the weather, and makes it easier to keep clean. It’s a good finishing step after a clean and re-sand.
