What to avoid

Mistakes we help you avoid

Removing jointing sand without replacing it

Pressure washing block paving can remove the jointing sand between the blocks. Where required and included in your quotation, we professionally re-sand your driveway using kiln-dried sand to restore stability and leave a clean, finished appearance.

Only cleaning the middle

A professional driveway clean should cover the entire agreed area, not just the most visible sections. We pay attention to edges, corners and stubborn areas of dirt, ensuring a thorough and consistent finish.

Leaving behind slippery surfaces

A quick rinse may improve the appearance temporarily, but it can leave algae and organic growth behind. Our specialist steam cleaning technology helps break down stubborn growth and grime, leaving your driveway cleaner and safer underfoot.

No clear price before work begins

We believe in transparent pricing. You receive a detailed quotation before any work begins, outlining exactly what is included, from specialist cleaning to re-sanding and any additional treatments required. No hidden costs or unexpected surprises.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

How often should a driveway be cleaned?

Most driveways need a proper clean every one to two years. Shaded drives, and ones under trees, can go green sooner. We'll say what we recommend after seeing it.

Do I need to be home?

You don't need to stay for the whole visit if we have access and the cars are moved off the area we agreed to clean. We'll text the evening before so you know we're coming.

Will pressure washing damage block paving?

Not when the pressure is right. Too much force blows the sand out from between the blocks. We wash hard enough to lift the dirt and algae, and leave the jointing sand in place.

What surfaces do you clean?

Block paving, concrete, slabs and similar hardstanding. Tarmac is treated more gently, because a close jet can mark it. If the surface is not suitable, we'll say so before we start.

Do I need to move my car?

Yes, please move vehicles off the driveway before we arrive. If a car has to stay, tell us when you book and we'll quote for the area we can reach.

How much does driveway cleaning cost?

Driveway cleaning starts from £200. The final price depends on the size, the surface and how dirty it is. You'll get a quote before we start, with no unexpected charge for the area that was agreed.

What if it rains on the day?

Light rain will not stop the clean. If the weather is unsafe, or so heavy that we cannot see the finish, we'll move the visit.

What if I'm not happy with the clean?

Tell us within 24 hours and we'll come back and put the agreed area right, free of charge. The work is also covered by public liability insurance of up to £10 million.
