Porous stone like sandstone and limestone soaks up dirt and organic growth differently to sealed porcelain or dense concrete, so we adjust pressure, chemical dwell time and rinse approach to the actual surface in front of us, not a one-size-fits-all wash.

Rows of terraced houses from the steelworks era, with new estates built on the former steelworks site. means we see a real mix of patio materials across Consett - old concrete flags laid decades ago, newer Indian sandstone from the last big garden makeover, and block paving driveways that have crept round the side into a seating area. Each one needs slightly different handling.

Covering Consett and Its Neighbourhoods

Consett covers a fair spread of ground, including Blackhill and Delves Lane, and we work right across it rather than sticking to one part of town.

Wherever your patio sits within Consett, distance within the town itself makes no difference to how we quote or schedule the job.

Tree-Lined and Shaded Gardens

Gardens in Consett with mature trees or dense boundary hedging keep patios shaded for much of the day, which slows drying after rain and creates the damp, low-light conditions black spot lichen and moss thrive in. Falling leaves and sap can also stain the surface between cleans.

These patios often need the joints cleared as much as the flags themselves, since moss and algae take hold in the gaps first and spread outward from there.

Side Passages, Steps and Tight Access

Not every patio is reachable in a straight line from the road - side passages, steps down to a sunken garden, or a shared access path all change how a job's approached. We ask about this at quoting stage so there are no surprises on the day.

Longer hose runs or hand-carrying equipment through a tight passage can add a little time, which we'll factor honestly into the price rather than springing it on you afterwards.

Add-On Services and Sealing

Four things drive most of the variation in a quote: the total area, the material (porous stone generally needs more treatment time than porcelain), how established the lichen or algae is, and access - a patio reachable straight off a driveway costs less to work on than one down a narrow side passage with everything carried through by hand.

Porcelain or concrete, light growthfrom around £4-£5 per m²
Heavy black spot lichen, any materialaround £7-£9 per m²
Fencing clean add-onfrom around £3-£5 per linear metre
