26 June 2026

Protect Your Paving Investment

A professionally installed paved driveway can last 20-30 years with proper maintenance. Here's how to keep yours in top condition:

Regular Cleaning

  • Sweep your driveway weekly to remove leaves, sand and debris
  • Pressure wash quarterly to remove stains and built-up grime
  • Address oil and grease stains immediately with a degreaser

Weed Prevention

  • Apply weed killer to joints every 3-4 months
  • Re-sand joints after pressure washing to prevent weed growth
  • Consider polymeric sand for a more permanent weed barrier

Repair Damage Early

  • Replace cracked or chipped pavers promptly
  • Re-level sunken areas before they spread
  • Fix damaged edging to prevent pavers from shifting

Sealing

  • Consider sealing your pavers every 3-5 years
  • Sealant enhances colour, prevents stains and reduces weed growth
  • Always clean thoroughly before applying sealant

Drainage

  • Ensure surface water drains away from buildings
  • Clear any blocked drainage channels or weep holes
  • Address standing water issues promptly
