Project Overview:
For this project in Maidstone, we revitalised a tired and weathered block paved driveway with a full power wash, resanding and sealing process. The driveway has accumulated dirt and moss over time, leading to discolouration and a dull appearance. By implementing a meticulous restoration approach, the team restored its original charm and durability.
Project Details
Location: Maidstone
Materials: Block Paving
Key Features:
Deep Cleaning with Power Washing: The first step was to thoroughly clean the driveway surface using a high-powered pressure washer. This process effectively removed years of built-up grime, moss and debris lodged between the block paving. The powerful jet wash not only brightened the bricks but also cleared out old jointing sand, preparing the surface for the next stage.
Reapplying Kiln-Dried Sand: Once the driveway was completely dry, we applied kiln-dried sand to refill the joints between the blocks. This is an essential step to maintain stability and prevent movement. We carefully brushed the sand into the joints, ensuring full coverage across the entire surface to enhance the driveway’s structural integrity.
Sealing for Long-Term Protection: To complete the transformation, we applied a high-quality sealant over the entire driveway. This protective layer not only enhances the rich colour of the block paving but also provides a barrier against weeds, stains and future weathering. The sealant also reduces the porosity of the blocks, helping to prevent moisture build-up and prolonging the lifespan of the driveway.
Final Result: The finished driveway now boasts a vibrant, fresh appearance, with the original red and grey tones fully restored. The power washing removed all dirt and algae, while the resanding and sealing provided reinforcement for long-term durability. The client was thrilled with the results, and their driveway is now better protected against wear and tear for years to come.
This project demonstrates how a driveway restoration can breathe new life into a driveway, making it inviting and functional for everyday use.
