Driveway Cleaning in Sedgefield - Block Paving, Concrete, Resin & Tarmac

Green algae in the shaded corners, black weed stubble pushing through the joints, a grey bloom creeping across what used to be buff block paving - a driveway rarely fails all at once, it just quietly loses its edge until one day it looks tired next to the front door. Left alone, that surface film keeps feeding on rainwater and gets more slippery every month, which is the real reason it needs sorting rather than just the way it looks.

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.

That typically means a biocide pre-treatment to deal with weeds, algae and moss at the root, a rotary surface cleaner or controlled pressure wash to lift ingrained dirt without damaging the surface, kiln-dried sand re-compacted into block paving joints, and a sealer - matt or wet-look - to finish. It's a proper multi-stage job, not a single-pass rinse.
