How do I know if I have natural stone?
If your patio or drive was laid prior to 2008, it is more likely to be precast concrete patio slabs or flagstones. If you are not sure you can check with the manufacturer or the company that laid the paving. If either of these options is not available, please send us a picture.

Will the cleaner damage the surface if left on too long before rinsing?
No, if left to long it might start to crystalise and dry white on the surface, but it will not damage the surface. If this does occur, it can be removed by either a stiff broom and water or a pressure washer.

Does the sealer keep once opened?
We would always recommend using it as soon as possible after opening, certainly within a year.
-
Will the cleaner kill the grass or planting around my patio?
Like many household cleaners, if applied concentrated to grass or plants, it will certainly harm if not kill them. This can always be avoided by saturating the adjacent areas with water prior to applying the cleaner and then rinsing off with copious amounts of water. This will then dilute the cleaner to the point where it will not harm grass or plants.

Can I get a Sample?
We do currently sell Samples for StoneCare4U, but they are only available on select products. If a product has a sample available, it will have a SAMPLE AVAILABLE stamp on the product’s image.

Do I have to use a power washer after applying the block paving cleaner?
Not always as the cleaner is highly effective. But a pressure washer at relatively low pressure will need to be used to clear the joints between the pavers.
