Pressure Washing in Whickham — the finished area after a full clean, in the Gateshead Council areaPressure Washing in Whickham — work in progress across the paving, on a NE16 propertyPressure Washing in Whickham — close detail on the cleaned surface, in the Gateshead Council area

We pressure wash driveways, patios, paths, yards and walls across Whickham and the surrounding NE16 area, using rotary surface cleaners for speed on open ground and hand lances for edges, steps and detail.

Whickham sits in Tyne and Wear with the kind of damp, mild weather that suits algae and moss far better than it suits driveways. Block paving, natural stone and tarmac around the area all pick up the same green-black film over a year or two of rain and low sun.

Block paving and concrete block driveways

  • Block paving generally takes a firm rotary clean well, but the jointing sand between blocks is the part that's easiest to damage - too much pressure held too close washes it straight out. We clean at a pressure that lifts algae and grime without stripping the joints, and offer re-sanding afterwards where they've thinned.

Rotary surface cleaner vs hand lance

A rotary surface cleaner spins two jets under a covered head, giving an even, streak-free finish over large flat areas like driveways and yards without the banding a hand lance can leave when swept by eye.

A hand lance is better suited to edges, steps, tight corners and vertical surfaces like walls, where a rotary head simply can't reach or where more control over angle and pressure is needed.

Most jobs use both - the rotary head for the bulk of the area and the lance to finish the parts it can't cover - which is why coverage and finish come out consistent rather than patchy.

We pressure wash driveways, patios, paths, yards and walls across Whickham, with the pressure and technique chosen to suit each surface.

Light annual maintenance or a driveway that's had years of neglect - both are within scope, and we'll price and approach them differently rather than applying a flat rate regardless of condition.

Get in touch with a description or photos and we'll give a realistic view of what's involved and what it's likely to cost.
