Expert Driveway Cleaning for Percy Main Homes and Businesses

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.

Spring is when most driveways get noticed - the low sun picks out every patch of green that winter's rain has spread across the paving, and the first dry weekend of the year is usually when someone finally says something about it. Autumn does its own damage too: wet leaves sit in low spots and joints, staining the surface and feeding the moss that then has all winter to establish itself before you even think about it again.

Percy Main 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.
