A driveway clean is one of the better-value jobs we do, typically working out at a few pounds per square metre depending on surface type, condition and access, and it makes a bigger visible difference to a property's frontage than almost anything else at that price point. Sealing adds to the job but roughly doubles how long the result lasts, so it's worth weighing up against the cost of getting it done again next year instead.
We work driveways across Harraton on block paving, poured and imprinted concrete, resin and tarmac, using pressure and rotary cleaning matched to the surface, kiln-dried sand re-sanding where the joints need it, and a sealer to slow down how fast it all comes back. Fully insured and biocide trained, so the treatment is done properly rather than just blasted and left.
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.
Also Covering the Wider Harraton Area
Beyond Harraton itself, we regularly take on driveway work in Low Fell, Silksworth, Felling and Hetton-le-Hole and the towns and villages around them. If your property sits between two of our regular areas, that's not a problem - we cover the ground in between as a matter of course.
Kiln-Dried Sand for Block Paving Joints
- Kiln-dried silica sand is brushed and vibrated into block paving joints once the surface is clean and dry, locking the blocks together and restoring stability that's often been lost as old jointing sand washes out over years of rain and cleaning. Properly re-sanded joints also resist weed regrowth far better than empty or half-filled ones.
The Right Products for the Right Surface
The chemicals and materials matter as much as the machinery. We use a professional biocide for weed, algae and moss control, kiln-dried silica sand for re-jointing block paving so it locks and compacts properly rather than washing straight back out, and surface-specific degreasers for oil staining rather than a generic all-purpose cleaner that barely touches ground-in oil.
For sealing, we offer matt sealants that protect without changing the look much, and wet-look gloss sealants that deepen colour and give a noticeably richer finish - both are breathable, UV-stable products suited to UK weather rather than the cheaper film-forming sealants that can go white or peel within a season.
Tarmac Restoration and Oil Stain Treatment
Tarmac restoration pricing depends heavily on the condition of the surface - a clean and reseal on a sound drive is a fairly standard job, while cracking and edge repair add time and materials. Oil stain treatment is usually priced per affected area rather than the whole driveway, since it's a targeted treatment rather than a full-surface job.
Ingrained, older oil staining sometimes needs a repeat visit to fully lift - we'll be upfront if that's likely rather than promising a result we can't guarantee in one pass.
Homeowners
An Annual Refresh Rather Than a Big Job
Many of our residential customers have us back on a rough yearly cycle rather than waiting until the drive looks properly bad - a lighter maintenance clean each year is quicker, cheaper and less disruptive than letting years of growth build up and needing a full restoration.
