The pressure needs to match the surface - firm on solid block paving, low and slow on tarmac, gentle on render and painted walls. We set it by material, not by how stubborn the dirt looks, which is why the finish stays even and the surface stays intact.
"Just turn the pressure up and it'll all come off" is the single most common misconception about pressure washing, and it's the reason so many driveways end up with washed-out jointing sand and patchy, blotchy tarmac.
Cleaning a tarmac driveway safely
- 1
Assess the tarmac
We check for existing cracking, loose aggregate or previous patch repairs, since these affect how much pressure the surface can safely take.
- 2
Set low pressure
Tarmac gets a noticeably lower pressure and wider fan than block paving to avoid loosening the surface bitumen.
- 3
Work in overlapping passes
The lance is kept moving in slow, even passes rather than held still, which prevents localised damage.
- 4
Rinse thoroughly
A full rinse clears lifted grime so it doesn't just redeposit as the surface dries.
Victorian terrace front paths and yards
Neoclassical 'Tyneside Classical' centre on a medieval street layout; 20th-century Byker Wall estate is Grade II* listed. Narrow front paths, original stone flags and small rear yards are common on these older terraces, and the tight, often shaded layout means algae and moss build up faster than on an open driveway.
Original stone flags need a gentler touch than modern paving - we use lower pressure and more passes rather than blasting at full power, which protects worn or slightly uneven flags from further wear.
