Thanks Beetaloo. I figured I would have to re-apply, I thought that the initial sweep would be part of the job though.
Oh well. You live and learn.

I had a paving job done recently. The actual paving itself is fine, but they didn't sweep paving sand/concrete in between the pavers. I have questioned the tradie…

Thanks Echo and Bagheera!
