Loose joints turn a patio into a trip hazard
London rain washes joint sand away, weeds push slabs apart and crumbling pointing lets water sit under your paving. Ignore it and the patio rocks, drains poorly and costs more to fix later.
Wobbly slabs
Gaps under pavers make slabs rock when you walk — awkward for guests and risky for older family members.
Weeds in every joint
Once sand washes out, weeds root deep. Pulling them leaves bigger gaps and the cycle gets worse.
Water sits underneath
Open joints let rain wash substrate away. Subsidence and uneven falls follow over time.
Cleaning alone is not enough
A fresh patio clean looks good briefly if joints are failing — repointing is what keeps it stable.
Proper patio repointing — not a quick sand sprinkle
We assess your slab type, rake out loose material, refill joints with the right kiln-dried sand or mortar mix, and compact so pavers lock together again. Pair with driveway cleaning if the front path has the same issue.
- Joint condition checked on arrival
- Old sand and debris removed

Questions before you book
What is patio repointing?
Repointing refreshes the material between paving slabs — usually kiln-dried sand on block paving or mortar on natural stone — so pavers lock together and weeds cannot root.
Do you repoint after patio cleaning?
Yes. Many clients book patio cleaning first, then repointing once slabs are clean and joints are visible.
How long does patio repointing take?
A typical London terrace patio takes half a day to a full day depending on size and how many joints need raking out.
When is the best time to repoint a patio?
Dry weather is best so joint sand settles properly. Spring and early autumn are popular before and after peak garden use.
Can you repoint patios near me in London?
Yes — all London boroughs and north to Luton. Send photos and your postcode for a free repointing quote.
