DRIVEWAY CLEANING

Driveway Chemical Treatments & Stain Removal

Chemically Treated for Lasting Results

Once your driveway has been pressure washed, we often follow up with a chemical treatment — tailored to the surface type. For stubborn organic growth such as black spot, algae or lichen, we use sodium hypochlorite or biocide solutions, applied carefully to ensure both safety and long-term effectiveness. These treatments not only brighten the surface but also kill spores that cause future moss and algae growth, keeping your driveway cleaner for months to come.

 

✅ Removal of black spot, algae, moss, and lichen
✅ Oil stains, rust marks, and ingrained traffic dirt
✅ Surface-safe treatments tailored to each driveway type

FAQs

Driveway Cleaning FAQs

Yes, professional pressure washing is safe for block paving when carried out correctly. We use controlled pressure and the correct nozzles to remove dirt, algae, and weeds without damaging the surface or joints. DIY jet washing can cause damage — professional block paving cleaning avoids this risk

Short answer: no — and that’s a deliberate decision.

We don’t offer driveway sealing because, in our experience, it doesn’t provide the long-term benefits that many homeowners expect, particularly on block paving and older driveways.

While sealing can improve appearance in the short term, it can also:

  • Trap moisture beneath the surface

  • Accelerate joint sand failure if not perfectly applied

  • Lead to patchy wear and peeling over time

  • Make future maintenance and repairs more difficult

Our focus is on maintenance methods that stand the test of time, not services that look good briefly but can cause issues later. If sealing is something you’re considering, we’re always happy to give honest, unbiased advice based on the condition of your driveway.

Most driveway and patio pressure washing jobs take 3-5 hours, depending on the size, surface type, and level of dirt or weed growth. Larger or heavily soiled block paving may take longer, especially if re-sanding is included.

Weeds can and will return over time, but pressure washing significantly reduces weed growth. In the short term. We remove existing weeds and organic material, and can provide great advice on future weed management. Re-sanding block paving joints also helps prevent weeds from returning we offer a harder setting sand if required.

Yes — block paving re-sanding is available after cleaning. Once the surface is fully dry, we apply kiln-dried sand to stabilise the blocks, improve appearance, and reduce future weed growth. Re-sanding is strongly recommended after pressure washing block paving. We also offer a harder setting sand for weed prone block paving.
