Driveways services

Our driveway cleaning service

Block paving greens over because moss and algae take hold in joints that have lost their sand. Cleaning is only half the job: if the joints are left empty the blocks can shift, water gets down into the laying course, and the moss is straight back. We clear the weeds and moss, wash the surface down, clean the joints out properly and refill them with kiln-dried sand, then whack it in so the sand settles rather than washing out in the first downpour. Beds, paths and gullies get cleared of washings before we leave.

What is included

What you get with driveway cleaning

Everything below is part of the quoted price rather than an extra added on afterwards.

  • Weed and moss clearance across the surface and along the edges
  • Pressure washing of the paved area
  • Joints cleaned out and refilled with kiln-dried sand
  • Sand compacted in and topped up
  • Surrounding beds, paths and drains cleared of washings
  • A note of any blocks or edgings that need attention while we are there

Our process

How it works

  1. 01

    Send us a photo

    A picture of the surface and a rough size is usually enough for us to price a clean without a visit.

  2. 02

    You get a written price

    We confirm what the clean covers, whether re-sanding or sealing is included, and what the surface will realistically look like afterwards.

  3. 03

    We clean the surface

    Weeds and moss are cleared, the surface is washed down, and joints are cleaned out ready for fresh sand.

  4. 04

    We re-sand and tidy

    Block joints are re-filled with kiln-dried sand, and the surrounding beds, paths and drains are cleared of washings before we leave.

Why choose us

Why choose us for driveway cleaning

  • A family-run team, so you deal with the people doing the work rather than a call centre.
  • The groundwork goes in before the surface, which is what decides how long the job lasts.
  • Driveways, paving, walls, fencing and turf are all in-house, so the levels and finishes line up.
  • A written price with the materials named, so you can compare it properly.

What affects the price

No two jobs price the same. These are the things that move it most:

  • The area being cleaned
  • How heavily it has greened over or grown weeds
  • Whether re-sanding is included, which it normally should be
  • Access to water and a place for the washings to drain
  • Whether sealing is wanted afterwards

Areas we cover

FAQs

Driveway Cleaning FAQs

How often should block paving be cleaned?

It varies with how shaded and damp the driveway is. A driveway under trees or on the north side of a house greens over far faster than one in full sun.

Does cleaning damage the blocks?

Not when the pressure and the lance distance are right for the surface. Where it goes wrong is when a jet is held too close and scours the face of the block, which is why the sand always has to be replaced afterwards.

Do you do patios as well?

Yes. Patio cleaning is the same job on a different surface, and sandstone and porcelain each need a different approach. See our patio cleaning page.
