    Hi All,

    I have a small little patio with grass and weeds coming up through it.
    Can anyone give me some advice on how to get it back in shape?

    Thanks

    Spray with herbicide or pull by hand: removal of root system important.
    Buy sand and brush between pavers.
    Pick/spray weeds as they emerge or apply residual herbicide. Avoid licking pavers if residual herbicide is applied.

    A few hours work... or just make your children/nephews and nieces do it.

    If when you spray off and weeds start to die off, a decent power washer Will be your friend, to avoid hours of hardship that you will never get back😨😨😨.
    50 quid from hire shop, trust me on this one!!!!!

    once the weeds are gone, get some kiln dried sand and brush in. The patio has to be a dry when sweeping it in!
