Hi,

I posted awhile ago about some of my Marshalls Blue Slate patio detatching from the base.

And on your awesome advice have used SBR to reattach the slate and it has worked a treat.

I have now regrouted the parts of the patio that needed and am now wanting to clean the patio. I then want to if possible colour enhance the slate so it is a darker grey (much like when it is wet) is this possible?

I then finally want to seal the patio to stop marks, scrtaches etc.

I don't feel confident enough to do it my self but also don't want some cowboy to do it and ruin my slate patio. Can anyone recommend someone that can do this in the Crawley, West Sussex areat please?

Thank you.

I can recommend someone to you, but totally wrong time of the year now to be even thinking about sealing paving outdoors.

A recomendation would be great thanks. I am more than happy to delay doing this, what time of year would be ok to do this? I just want to get some company names together and then get some quotes from them first.

You really need to wait until late April early May onwards once temperatures start to rise. I'll PM you details of a company that can handle this, I'd be interested by already booked until late June 2018.
