Rediscover your outdoor living space

A cleaner patio, a brighter garden

A clean patio can make a remarkable difference to the appearance of your garden. Over time, paving can become discoloured by algae, moss, lichen, dirt and the effects of everyday use.

The right method for every surface

No two patios are exactly alike. We assess the paving before recommending a cleaning method, particularly where surfaces may be sensitive to pressure or chemical treatments. Depending on suitability, we can work with:

Natural sandstone

We assess the stone and its condition before choosing a method that lifts discolouration without damaging the surface.

Limestone & natural stone

A gentler, surface-specific approach for limestone and other compatible natural stones that need careful handling.

Porcelain paving

Suitable porcelain paving can be cleaned using methods and products appropriate to its finish.

Concrete paving slabs

Pressure tuned to the surface strips grime, algae and green staining from concrete paving slabs.

Block-paved patios

We lift dirt, moss and weeds from the joints and refresh the colour of block-paved patios.

Other hard surfaces

Other suitable exterior hard surfaces can be assessed and cleaned using an appropriate method.

Removing algae and dirt from patio paving
Surface contamination

Remove Built-Up Dirt, Algae & Surface Growth

Algae, moss and general dirt can leave patios looking darker, patchy and less inviting. Our cleaning service focuses on removing suitable surface contamination and improving the appearance of the paving.

Some staining, weathering and discolouration may be permanent. We'll explain any limitations during the assessment so you know what to expect.

Restoration

Patio Restoration & Finishing Treatments

Cleaning is often the first stage of restoring a patio. Depending on its condition, additional work may be appropriate, such as suitable surface treatments or jointing repairs.

We only recommend treatments compatible with the paving material and existing finish. Where a separate drying period or return visit is required, this will be explained in your quotation.

What restoration can include

  • ✓Surface treatments compatible with the paving
  • ✓Jointing repairs where required
  • ✓Finishing treatments to refresh appearance
  • ✓Return visits where drying time is needed
