If this continues unchecked over a long period of time then not only will it cause staining and discolouration but also you run the risk that acid from the mould itself could start etching into the stone's surface which would weaken it. \r\rMould is usually present in dark patches that look like discolouration.\r\rIf you want to clean the mould and algae from your sandstone paving then the first step is to ensure that your sandstone tiles are not regularly getting wet and damp underneath. Sandstone has a porous nature, and a permeable sandstone patio surface will allow water to drain through easily and can help prevent moisture problems, as well as helping to avoid problems such as black mould which loves a high level of moisture. You may also find that there is a risk of some sandstone tiles lifting if the earth beneath them stays constantly wet over a long period of time. If tiles are lifting from the ground, touch the bottom of the pavers or the earth below to see if it is damp or wet.\r\rClean off any loose debris like leaf litter and other vegetation on sandstone pavers before starting work on cleaning the mould and algae - do this with just water and a soft brush. Using harsher chemical is a good way to damage the surface of your sandstone paving.\r\rThe next step in cleaning black mould is to scrub it clean with a dilute solution of vinegar or soda crystals - this solution will kill off much of the mould, leaving just discolouration on areas where there has been a lot of growth. To do so, mix equal parts of vinegar/soda crystals with water. If it's not effective you can add another part of vinegar to the mixture. Keep adding one part vinegar and testing until you're satisfied with the solution.\r\rOnce you have rubbed off any remaining patches or areas of mould and algae clean, wipe away any remaining solution with a mop, soft cloth, or towel. You should be able to make out faint outlines where the damage was done - these are usually quite dark and greasy looking because they are stained by dirt rather than being discoloured limestone itself. If you cannot clean such a stain completely then using a penetrating sealer to seal it in. These types of sealers might reduce stain visibility over time. Additionally, the sealer will also help protect your sandstone from other types of damage, and increase the longevity of the sandstone.

Once you have it looking great, give the pool fence a quick go-over.\r\rDo not try cleaning the natural stone around pools with anything too harsh or acidic because this could cause damage, removing the colouring and etching into the surface of your sandstone pavers.

Some of the most popular varieties include cedar, oak, and walnut. All of these timbers have unique characteristics that make them appealing for different fence applications.\r\rCedar is a good timber fencing choice if you're looking for durable wood that's resistant to decay and insects. It has a natural resistance to moisture, making it ideal for use in humid climates. It also contains natural oils that help repel water and prevent warping over time.\r\rOak is an excellent choice if you need a strong, durable timber fence for high traffic areas or keep animals in or out of your yard. Its durability makes it less likely to warp than other types of wood like cypress pine. \r\rWalnut is another quality choice if you're looking for a stronger picket fence wood that's more resistant to rot, insects and termites than untreated cypress pine lumber.
