Paver cleaning
in Grez-Doiceau
Terraces and driveways in clay pavers stripped back thoroughly, joints redone where needed, then a water-repellent treatment that keeps the colour and blocks moss. We do this in Grez-Doiceau from our base in Walloon Brabant, always with a site visit to price the work before anything is committed.
BeforeAfter
The context in Grez-Doiceau
Why here in particular
A rural municipality in the Train valley, Grez-Doiceau keeps a scattered pattern of housing between hamlets, square farmsteads and recent builds. In practice, large converted farm volumes pile up long roof valleys, endless fascias and old roof timbers that have rarely been treated.
A porous clay paver drinks up water, greens over on the shaded side and fills with moss in the joints. In winter the trapped water freezes and blows the surface apart.

Frequently asked questions
Paver cleaning in Grez-Doiceau
The questions we get asked most often before this kind of job.
Can a concrete terrace be treated?
Yes, the method is the same. The products change according to the porosity.
Do grease stains come out?
The recent ones, yes. An old ingrained stain can leave a shadow: we say so before the job, not after.
Does it have to be redone every year?
No. With a water-repellent, a rinse with clean water once a year is enough for 5 to 8 years.
Do you come out to Grez-Doiceau with no extra call-out charge?
Yes. Grez-Doiceau is one of our 17 municipalities: the call-out is included in the quote, not added at the bottom of the invoice.
