Driveway Cleaning

Dirt, algae, grime and stains cleared from your drive, with block paving joints re-sanded and sealed if you want them.

A drive that looks cared for again

Driveways take more punishment than almost any other part of a property. Tyres carry in grit and oil, leaves rot into the corners, and algae spreads across the surface wherever it stays damp. Over time a drive that once looked sharp turns dark, slippery in places and patchy.

We clean driveways with pressure jet washing, removing dirt, algae, grime, stains and debris without damaging the surface. A strong stream of water is the right tool for hard wearing ground, and it reaches the dirt that sits deep in the texture of the blocks or concrete.

Cleaning is only part of the job on many drives. Where it is needed, we carry out re-sanding, treatment and re-sealing, and for stubborn marks on block work that refuse to move, we look at what else can be done to remedy them.

Pressure jet washing

A powerful stream of water clears the toughest dirt from hard wearing driveway surfaces.

Re-sanding

Block paving joints can be refilled with sand after cleaning so the blocks sit firmly.

Treatment and sealing

Treatment and re-sealing are available if required to help the finish last.

Stubborn block stains

Marks on block work that will not shift with washing are looked at separately.

Block paving

Block paving joints, sand and sealing

Block paving is held together by the sand packed between each block. Washing a drive clean inevitably lifts some of that sand, and weeds and moss will have loosened more over the years. Left empty, the joints collect dirt and let the blocks move.

Re-sanding refills the joints once the surface is clean and dry, which helps the blocks lock together again. Treatment and re-sealing can then be applied if you want them, which helps keep the finish looking fresh for longer.

Not every drive needs all of this. We will tell you honestly what your driveway needs after cleaning, and you decide which parts you would like done.
