Block Paving Cleaning 

Block paving is a great addition to any house or block paving whether it is on a patio, walk or block paving but over time, it becomes faded, stained and overgrown. Cleaning block paving can quickly restore the original features and first clean stunning look. The total job may take anywhere from a few hours to a few days depending on the size of the block paving area to be cleaned. 

 

The first step to cleaning block paving is to remove any large weeds that may be growing in joints. Once the weeds are removed, a fungicide is applied to remove algae, mold and moss. Oil and other stains should be pre-treated prior to jet washing. 

 

A useful tool for cleaning block paving is a rotary pressure washer head used in conjunction with a jet washer. A rotary flat surface washing head keeps water splashing to a minimum, conserves water and directs the water flow more precisely at the surface. Using a jet washer will remove smaller weeds, stains and dirt without the need to scrub or use harsh chemicals. 

 

If the block paving had sand joints, it will be necessary to reapply kiln dried sand after washing. Once the sand is reapplied, the block paving should be sealed to prevent staining and mold and moss growth. The sealer may be applied with a roller or a sprayer. Cleaning and sealing block paving should be repeated every year and will keep the block paving looking neat and beautiful for many years.
