When did you last see your driveway's actual colour? Block paving fades under a layer of algae and grime so gradually that most homeowners in Lanchester only notice how far it's drifted when a neighbour has theirs done, or the estate agent's photos come back looking flat. The same goes for tarmac gone grey and patchy, or imprinted concrete losing the crispness of its pattern under a film of moss.

We treat the cause as well as the surface: a biocide application that kills the algae and moss at the root, a proper rinse or rotary clean to lift what's already growing, then a re-sand and seal so the joints and surface are harder to recolonise next time. It's the difference between a driveway that looks clean for a fortnight and one that stays that way.

Driveway cleaning isn't just pointing a pressure washer at the surface and working left to right - block paving, poured concrete, imprinted concrete, resin and tarmac each respond differently to pressure, heat and chemicals, and using the wrong combination can strip sand from joints, etch a resin surface or leave tramlines in tarmac that never quite disappear. We match the method to the material every time.

Covering a Wide Stretch of the North East

We work driveways across a roughly 45-mile radius from our Washington base, which takes in Lanchester and a large stretch of the surrounding North East. Wherever you are in that area, the same treatment, cleaning and sealing process applies - it's not a scaled-down service the further out you are.

Exposed and Higher-Ground Properties

Properties on higher or more exposed ground around Lanchester take more direct weather - driving rain, wind and in winter the odd hard frost - all of which affects a driveway differently to a sheltered spot lower down. Frost in particular can work into any cracks or poorly-jointed areas over winter and widen them, which is worth catching and treating before it becomes a bigger repair.

We check for frost damage, loose edging and cracked block or concrete as part of the initial look-over on exposed properties, since cleaning alone won't fix a surface that's actively breaking up. Sealing exposed surfaces also makes a genuinely bigger practical difference here, since it reduces how much water gets into the surface in the first place.

For Homeowners: Kerb Appeal That Actually Lasts

Your driveway is one of the first things anyone sees of your home, whether that's a visitor, a delivery driver or a potential buyer, and a clean, sealed surface changes the whole look of a frontage more than almost any other job at a similar price. We treat, clean, re-sand and seal so the result holds rather than fading back within weeks.

Biocide Treatment for Weeds, Algae and Moss

  • We use a professional-grade biocide to treat weeds, algae and moss at the root rather than just rinsing the surface growth away. Applied correctly and given time to work, it slows down regrowth considerably compared with cleaning alone, and it's the single biggest factor in how long a driveway clean actually lasts.

From block paving and concrete to resin and tarmac, we treat, clean, re-sand and seal driveways across Lanchester so the result lasts rather than fading within weeks. Fully insured and biocide trained, with straight pricing and no obligation quotes.
