Why Clean Your Driveway or Patio?

Kerb Appeal  A clean, well-maintained driveway or patio improves the overall appearance of your property, whether you’re selling, renting, or simply taking pride in your home.

Safety – Algae and moss can make surfaces dangerously slippery, especially in damp conditions.

Surface Longevity – Regular cleaning helps prevent deterioration, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacement.

Weed Control – We remove and suppress weeds, preventing root damage to your paving.

Our Process

  1. Assessment & Preparation – We inspect the area to identify surface type, condition, and any potential issues. We also check drainage and sensitive spots like pointing or nearby flowerbeds.
  2. Debris & Weed Removal – Loose debris, leaves, weeds, and litter are removed before washing begins.
  3. Pressure Washing or Soft Washing – We use professional-grade equipment tailored to your surface type:
    • Block paving: cleaned at the right pressure to avoid disturbing the sand base.
    • Concrete or tarmac: treated with care to avoid damage.
    • Stone patios: cleaned to remove algae, lichen, and discolouration.
  4. Edge & Detail Cleaning – Corners, joints, and hard-to-reach areas are cleaned with precise nozzles or by hand.
  5. Treatment – We will apply a biocide to kill off organic material such as lichen and algae where necessary. Rust stains can be removed using a tested formula.
  6. Re-sanding & Aftercare (for block paving) – Once dry, kiln-dried sand is brushed into the joints to prevent movement and weed regrowth.
