Still looks fine … after being down for almost 20 years now I guess it’s faded a little but if I want to restore the colour I’d put a coat or two of Ronseal patio sealer on it … but happy the way it looks for now 😀😀👍

@stephenmaddocksDIY

Can’t see there being a problem as I guess kennels would bleach there premises to kill germs and dog dirt stains If worried perhaps check with your vet first as I’m no expert on dogs and pets in general 👍👍👍
@AlphaviewWindowcleaning
@AlphaviewWindowcleaning 2 года назад
You would need to rinse down the patio to make sure all the bleach had been washed away and diluted down to nothing. Once washed down leave to dry completely before allowing pets on the surface.

@wotviewer
@wotviewer 9 месяцев назад
so you have (had?) black spot lichen. To effectively treat that will require a stronger concentration of bleach than this person's video suggests. Domestic bleach is 4 - 4.5% sodium hypochlorite, a professional will be using 10 - 14% + other additives.
