Driveway & Patio Restoration
Deep clean. Repair. Re-sand or re-point. Restore properly.
This service is for homeowners who want their driveway or patio looking sharp again — without replacing it. We remove built-up grime, moss, weeds and black spot, then repair loose areas and restore the joints so the surface is safer, cleaner, and properly restored.
Send a couple of photos of your driveway or patio and we’ll confirm the best option and a clear price — usually the same day. No pressure. No obligation.
Most quotes are confirmed from photos alone. Best results come from the right method — wet or dry — chosen for your surface and condition.
Installed by professionals. Restored by the same.

Repointed properly for a cleaner finish and longer-lasting performance
Loose, washed-out or failing joints don’t just spoil the appearance of a patio — they also allow movement, weed growth and ongoing deterioration. Our patio repointing service restores the joints properly, helping the surface look sharper, perform better and stay protected for years to come.
Our Jointing Method
We use a carefully selected blend of sand and graded aggregate, combined with binding agents, to create a much more durable joint than loose fill methods alone. This helps the finished patio hold together better, resist washout more effectively, and maintain a cleaner, more defined appearance over time.
Why It Matters
- Helps reduce joint loss and washout
- Improves the overall finish of the patio
- Reduces places for weeds and debris to take hold
- Supports the paving by locking joints more effectively
- Ideal for patios that need a proper reset rather than replacement
Honest Advice
Not every patio needs replacing. In many cases, a deep clean and proper repointing can dramatically improve both the look and life of the surface. We’ll always advise honestly on whether repointing is the right solution for your patio.
Built on practical experience. Finished to look right. Designed to last for many years.

Price Guide
Joint Restoration from £19.99 per m²
Typical range: £19.99 – £24.99 per m², depending on the condition of the patio, joint depth, preparation required, and access.
This is priced as a proper joint restoration service — not a basic brush-in finish — and is usually carried out after cleaning so the patio can be reset and finished properly.
