Question 1

Is block paving re-sanding included in the driveway clean?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Re-sanding of block paving joints is included in our driveway and patio cleaning service. After the clean, joints are topped up with kiln-dried sand to restore the correct fill level and help prevent weed growth.

Question 2

Can you clean block paving without damaging the blocks?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We adjust the pressure and technique to the surface type. Block paving is cleaned at a controlled pressure that removes algae, moss and staining without disturbing the block surface or causing edge damage.

Question 3

How long does a driveway clean take?

Accepted Answer

A typical single driveway takes two to three hours including re-sanding. Larger areas with heavy staining take longer. Wesley will confirm the expected duration at the quote stage.

Question 4

Can you remove oil stains from driveways?

Accepted Answer

Old, deep-set oil stains are among the most difficult to fully remove from porous surfaces. We pre-treat with specialist degreasers and can significantly reduce oil staining, though full removal is not always possible depending on how long the stain has been there.

Question 5

Can you clean natural stone patios without damage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We adjust the method to suit natural stone, which can be more porous than manufactured block paving. We use appropriate pressure and avoid chemicals that would bleach or stain natural stone surfaces.

Question 6

Will weeds come back after the driveway clean?

Accepted Answer

The clean removes existing weed growth and moss from joints. Re-sanding helps prevent regrowth by filling the gaps correctly. Applying a block paving sealer after the clean provides the most durable protection against weed return.

Question 7

Do you clean concrete driveways as well as block paving?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We clean poured concrete, exposed aggregate, block paving and natural stone surfaces. Each surface type receives the appropriate treatment and pressure level.

Question 8

Can the driveway be sealed after cleaning?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Applying a block paving sealer or impregnating sealant after cleaning locks in the clean appearance and makes the surface easier to maintain. Ask us about sealing as a combined treatment on the same visit.

Question 9

How soon can I use my driveway after it has been cleaned?

Accepted Answer

The surface is safe to walk on once dried, typically within a few hours in dry weather. If a sealer has been applied, we will advise a longer waiting period before vehicle use, usually 24 hours.

Question 10

Do you cover patio cleaning in the same service as the driveway?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Patio and driveway cleaning can be combined in a single visit. We treat all hard surfaced areas including paths, steps and patio slabs.
