Driveway Cleaning, Re-Sanding & Sealing in Fulwell

A lot of people assume a driveway clean is just a jet wash, and that any improvement it makes is temporary because "it always comes back". It does come back if that's all that's done - a pressure wash alone strips the surface film off but leaves algae spores and weed roots very much alive in the joints, ready to regrow within a season, often faster than before because the surface has been roughed up.

Fulwell sits in Tyne and Wear, and like most of the North East it gets more than its share of driving rain, which is exactly the weather that keeps algae and moss topped up on block paving, concrete and tarmac all year round. Add in the mineral run-off from pointing, render and roofs onto the drive below and you've got the perfect conditions for the grey-green film that dulls a driveway within a couple of seasons of it being laid or last cleaned.

Whichever point in the year you're looking at it, the fix is the same - a proper clean matched to the surface, a biocide treatment so what comes back is slower and thinner, and a seal if you want to stop the cycle rather than just reset it for another year. We work driveways year-round, though a sealed surface applied before the wetter months tends to hold up noticeably better through winter.
