Get Your Patio Looking Its Best in Blyth

Get your patio in Blyth properly treated for black spot lichen and cleaned to an even finish. Free, honest quotes from Annual Cleaning Solutions today.

We use a softwash biocide treatment first, low-pressure or steam cleaning second, and only bring higher pressure in where the surface can genuinely take it - never as the default. That order matters: pressure without treatment just scatters lichen spores across the rest of the patio.

We treat, clean and can seal patios across Blyth - sandstone, limestone, porcelain, concrete flags and block paving all covered, with a biocide treatment for black spot lichen and moss before any washing starts.

Porcelain Paving

  • Porcelain is dense, low-porosity and generally the most resilient of the common patio materials, so it can usually take a firmer clean without surface damage. Black spot lichen tends to sit more on top of porcelain than embedded within it, which makes treatment slightly more straightforward.
  • The joints between porcelain slabs are still worth checking, though - growth often establishes in the pointing before it shows on the tile faces.

Holiday Lets and Serviced Accommodation

A patio or outdoor seating area is often the first thing guests see in photos and the first thing they sit on when they arrive, so black spot lichen or a green-streaked surface undermines the whole listing. We can work to a changeover schedule so it's ready between guests.

Sealing is worth considering here too, since it keeps the surface looking presentable for longer between our visits and cuts down on how often it needs attention.

1960s and 70s Estate Patios

Patios from this era in Blyth are often concrete flags or early paving slabs, laid directly onto sand or hardcore with minimal drainage falls built in. Over fifty-plus years the surface has usually absorbed a lot of green algae and moss into a slightly rougher, more porous finish than newer materials.

These older concrete flags can be more prone to surface crazing, so we test pressure carefully rather than assuming they'll take the same clean as modern slabs.
