Amington, Tamworth

We had our block paving driveway cleaned, re-sanded and sealed by Tamworth Brighter Drives & Patios and the result is absolutely stunning. The driveway was in a terrible state -- covered in black spot and moss with weeds throughout the joints. The team spent a full day on it and the transformation is remarkable. It honestly looks better than it did when it was first laid 12 years ago. Very professional, punctual, and they left everything clean and tidy. Couldn't recommend them more highly.

Excellent service from start to finish. I had my Indian sandstone patio cleaned and sealed -- it had gone very dark and slippery over the years and I was genuinely concerned about using it. The team were knowledgeable about natural stone and used products specifically suited to sandstone. The result is amazing -- the original warm colours are back and the surface is no longer slippery at all. Very reasonably priced and the quote was exactly what they charged. Will definitely use again.

I'd had several quotes for having my tarmac driveway cleaned and restored, and I'm very glad I chose Tamworth Brighter Drives & Patios. They clearly knew what they were doing with tarmac -- explained the process thoroughly and the risks of getting it wrong, which others hadn't mentioned. The driveway was grey and faded with oil staining from a previous vehicle; it's now a deep, rich black with no visible staining. The tarmac restoration and sealing they applied looks incredible. Top-notch job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about block paving cleaning in West Bromwich.

What causes black spot on block paving in West Bromwich?
Black spot is caused by a specific fungal organism (Spilocea oleagina or similar) that grows on block paving surfaces, particularly in areas with moderate rainfall and humidity -- conditions very common across the Midlands. Unlike algae or moss, black spot penetrates the block surface and is very difficult to remove without professional-grade biocides and high-pressure treatment. It's a particular problem on block paving and does not respond well to DIY methods.
How do you clean between the joints without removing all the sand?
Our rotary surface cleaners clean the face of each block effectively without directing high-pressure water directly into the joints. This minimises sand loss while still achieving a thorough clean. Some sand loss is inevitable, which is why we always recommend re-sanding after a professional block paving clean. Edge areas are hand-lanced carefully with reduced pressure to clean without excessive sand removal.
My block paving has a lot of weeds -- can you remove them?
Yes. As part of our process, we apply a targeted biocide/weedkiller to the joints before pressure washing. This kills the weeds including the root system. The pressure washing then flushes away the dead vegetation. Re-sanding and sealing after cleaning is the most effective way to prevent weeds from returning.
How long does block paving cleaning take in West Bromwich?
A standard double driveway typically takes 2-3 hours for cleaning alone. If re-sanding and sealing are included, allow a full day. We work efficiently without cutting corners -- thorough edge detailing and careful clean-up take time but make a significant difference to the finished result.
Can loose or damaged blocks be re-laid before cleaning?
If we notice significantly loose, sunken, or damaged blocks during the survey, we can advise on options. In some cases, we can relay a limited number of blocks as part of the job (at an additional cost). For more extensive block paving repairs, we can refer you to trusted local specialists before we carry out the cleaning and sealing.
