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 and inexpensively restore the original features and first clean stunning look. Many companies who install block paving also offer a cleaning surface, which restores the surface without the need to purchase new tools or large bottles of chemicals. For the do-it-yourself homeowner, cleaning block paving is a weekend job that provides real satisfaction without backbreaking work. 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. Be sure to pick a day or days where the weather is likely to be dry.
The first step to cleaning block paving is to remove any large weeds that may be growing in joints. Once the weeds are removed, apply a fungicide to remove algae, mold and moss. It is helpful have a chemical sprayer for this application since it will cover a larger area more quickly. Be sure to use protective equipment such as gloves when working with a chemical sprayer. Pre-treat oil stains and other stains prior to jet washing. Many people disagree with jet washing block paving since it will remove some sand from joints however; it is an straight forward job to add the sand after the cleaning project is completed. A useful tool for cleaning block paving is a rotary pressure washer head used in conjunction with a jet washer. Many tool hiring shops have both jet washers and rotary head attachments available for hire. 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. Purchase kiln dried sand and work into joints with a soft broom. Once the sand is reapplied, seal the block paving 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.

Platinum Sealing & Cleaning Services recommends that you choose to seal your paving after cleaning to ensure your block paving or patio area remains weed free and stable; prolonging lifespan and preventing paving failure. This is achieved by using our high quality two coat acrylic sealer. The acrylic when dry, hardens to protect the jointing sand from being washed away. This in turn protects the sub-base from being eroded and your block paving subsiding, thereby avoiding costly repairs. It also inhibits the growth of moss and weeds, and should you get an oil spill, it can be simply hosed or power washed away without causing damage to your block paving.
