From £200 — fixed-price quote Rotary surface cleaner — even finish, no stripes Hot-water units for oil and grease Fully insured Most driveways done in one day Service Overview ## Understanding pressure washing ## What it is High-pressure water cleaning of hard exterior surfaces using rotary cleaners that deliver an even, stripe-free finish across block paving, slabs, tarmac, concrete, stone and brick. Heat-injection available for oil, grease and chewing gum. ## Who it's for Homeowners with stained, mossy or weed-infested hard surfaces; landlords prepping for tenancy change; commercial property managers needing clean forecourts and car parks. ## When you need it Spring to early autumn for best drying conditions. Hot-water cleans work year-round including frost periods. Best done before any re-sanding, sealing or refinishing. ## Why professional help matters Hand-held pressure washers leave 'tiger stripes' — overlap marks that take a year of weathering to disappear. Rotary surface cleaners use two synchronised jets in a closed housing, delivering a perfectly even finish. If left untreated ## The cost of doing nothing. - Weed root left in joints breaks through within 3 months — every season the problem doubles. - Algae biofilm on slabs is the #1 cause of slip-and-fall claims at homes and businesses. - Oil-stained driveways knock 2–5% off kerb-appeal valuations. - Ground-in moss holds moisture against block paving and accelerates freeze-thaw cracking. Common mistakes ## What we see go wrong. - Hiring the cheapest quote with a hand-wand — every overlap shows for a year. - Skipping the joint re-sand — kiln-dried sand stabilises blocks and prevents weed regrowth. - Pressure-washing tarmac at full power and stripping the binder. - DIY-ing it — most domestic units take 6 hours to do what we do in 90 minutes. Our Process ## A predictable system, from first call to clean-up - 01 ### Inspection Surface assessment — paving type, joint condition, contamination level, drainage. - 02 ### Pre-Treatment Biocide or degreaser applied where needed, 10-minute dwell to lift biofilm or oil. - 03 ### Rotary Clean Industrial rotary surface cleaner walked methodically across the surface for an even finish. - 04 ### Detail Pass Hand-wand used for edges, kerbs, steps and corners no rotary can reach. - 05 ### Re-Sand & Seal (optional) Kiln-dried sand swept into block paving joints; sealant applied if booked. The Benefits ## What you actually get for the money. - ### Even finish, no stripes Rotary tech gives a uniform clean a hand-wand simply cannot. - ### Restores grip and safety Removes the algae biofilm that causes most outdoor slips. - ### Adds visual years to paving Customers consistently mistake cleaned drives for re-laid ones. - ### Optional sealing extends results Joint stabiliser sealant helps protect the finish and slow weed regrowth. - ### Hot water for tough jobs Oil, grease, chewing gum and grease all lifted thermally. - ### Fully insured — £5m cover Public liability cover up to £5 million. Slurry runoff managed and disposed of responsibly. Deep Detail ## The technical bit — for the people who like to know ### Equipment we run Honda-powered cold and hot-water units, Karcher and Whirlaway rotary surface cleaners in 16" and 20" formats, 21°/40° fan nozzles for detail. Surface-cleaner housings contain spray and slurry — no over-spray onto cars or windows. ### Block paving specifics Marshalls, Brett, Tobermore and Bradstone blocks all respond well. We use the right pressure to clean without dishing the surface. Joint sand re-applied after cleaning is essential — without it, blocks loosen and weeds return. ### Patios and slabs Indian sandstone, porcelain, riven concrete and limestone each take a different setting. Sandstone needs lower pressure to avoid pitting; porcelain handles full power but joints need detail-wand work. ### Tarmac and concrete Tarmac washed at lower pressure with surface cleaner to avoid stripping bitumen binder. Concrete handles full pressure and rotary tools. ### Residential vs commercial Residential drives, patios and paths quoted by m². Commercial forecourts, car parks and loading bays priced by area + access. Out-of-hours scheduling for retail and office sites. FAQ ## Straight answers to common questions How much does pressure washing cost? Pressure washing starts from £200 — final price depends on surface area, contamination level and access.
