Look after the surface you’ve invested in.
A freshly cleaned patio or driveway can make a real difference to your home. Sealing can help protect a suitable surface and make ongoing maintenance easier, with finishes that preserve its natural appearance or enhance its colour.
Chysto Exterior Cleaning provides sealing and re-sealing for suitable patios, block paving and imprinted concrete. Based in Waterlooville, we work across Hampshire and West Sussex.
We assess the surface and any existing coating before recommending a suitable approach.
After cleaning and any necessary re-sanding, a suitable sealer can help reduce the absorption of oil and dirt. Some block paving sealers also help stabilise the jointing sand. We’ll explain the finish available and the preparation included in your quote.
Different patio materials need different products. For suitable natural stone and concrete paving, we can discuss options that retain a natural appearance or enhance the colour. We’ll help you understand how the chosen finish may change the look of your patio.
An existing sealed finish can become worn and uneven over time. We assess the condition of your imprinted concrete and its previous coating before deciding whether re-sealing is appropriate. Preparation and compatibility matter to achieving a sound finish.
Re-sealing starts with understanding what is already on the surface.
Please tell us when it was last sealed and which product was used, if you know. Cloudy patches, peeling or an uneven finish may need additional preparation before another coat can be considered.
We’ll explain what we recommend, any limitations and the work included before you book. Sealing won’t repair cracked paving, sunken blocks or failed joints.
Send your postcode, a few photographs and any information you have about previous sealing.
We check the surface, discuss the finish you want and explain the preparation and sealing work required.
We arrange the work around suitable weather and drying conditions. You’ll receive guidance on keeping the area clear and when it can be used again.
Not every surface needs it. Suitability depends on the material, its condition, any previous treatment and the result you want. We’ll assess those points before recommending sealing.
It can. Some products retain a more natural appearance, while others deepen the colour or create a sheen. We’ll discuss the expected finish before you decide.
Sometimes, but the existing coating must be suitable and compatible. Worn, peeling or unidentified coatings may require further investigation or preparation.
No. Sealing can make some surfaces easier to maintain, but it doesn’t make paving maintenance-free or stain-proof. Regular sweeping and prompt cleaning of spills still matter.
That depends on the product, surface, preparation, weather exposure and use. We’ll explain the maintenance guidance relevant to the sealer being applied.
Drying and curing times vary. We’ll give you instructions for your particular surface and product, including when furniture or vehicles can return.
The price depends on the area, condition, preparation and sealer required. Your quote will clearly state whether cleaning, re-sanding or other preparation is included.
Tell us what surface you have and the finish you’re hoping for. We’ll assess what’s suitable and explain your options.
