Why Choose Our Patio Cleaning Services
Our approach prioritises effective cleaning whilst protecting the structural integrity of joints and pointing. We adjust pressure based on paving material; natural stone requires gentler treatment than concrete. Pre-treatment addresses stubborn lichen and staining.
Joint-protection techniques minimise mortar or sand loss. Clients appreciate visible results, minimal damage to joints, and guidance on maintaining a clean appearance between professional cleaning sessions.
Fair and honest rates reflect the care and expertise required for quality patio cleaning that balances thoroughness with preservation.

Our Patio Cleaning Services Process
We begin by assessing your patio, identifying paving type, joint material, and staining patterns. Pre-treatment is applied to lichen, moss, or stubborn marks where beneficial. Pressure washing proceeds with appropriate pressure and nozzle angles to protect joints.
Organic growth is removed systematically, with particular attention to shaded areas where algae accumulate heavily. Edges and details are thoroughly cleaned for complete results.
Optional biocide treatment slows regrowth if requested. The cleaned patio is inspected, and we discuss any joint repairs needed and maintenance routines to prolong results.
Patio Cleaning FAQs
Will patio cleaning damage pointing or joints?
Correct technique protects joints whilst removing surface growth. We adjust pressure based on joint material; lime mortar requires gentler treatment than cement joints. Some material loss is possible if joints were already damaged or loose. We assess joint condition during initial consultation and advise on any repairs needed before or after cleaning. Transparent quotes, backed by an established track record spanning 20+ years, reflect appropriate techniques.
Can you remove lichen from natural stone paving?
Lichen removal requires pre-treatment and patient washing, as lichen adheres tenaciously to stone. Multiple treatments may be needed for complete removal without surface damage. We assess lichen severity during initial consultation and set realistic expectations about achievable results and timescales required for thorough removal.
How do you clean patios without damaging natural stone?
Natural stone, particularly sandstone and limestone, requires lower pressure and wider nozzle angles than concrete. We adjust the technique to remove growth without eroding stone surfaces or damaging the texture. Pre-treatment reduces pressure requirements for stubborn staining. Experience with diverse stone types ensures appropriate cleaning without harm.
Will cleaning make patios less slippery?
Yes. Removing algae and organic growth significantly improves slip resistance, particularly in damp or shaded areas. Textured paving regains its grip once growth is removed. This safety improvement makes patios more comfortable and secure underfoot, especially beneficial for families with young children or elderly users.
How often should patios be professionally cleaned?
Most patios benefit from cleaning every 1 to 3 years, depending on exposure, shade, and usage. North-facing or heavily shaded patios accumulate growth faster. Regular cleaning prevents deep staining and excessive joint damage from root penetration. We provide maintenance recommendations during the work to help prolong results, offering value-focused pricing.
Do you offer re-pointing after cleaning?
We can arrange re-pointing if joints are damaged or missing after cleaning, though this is separate work requiring additional time and materials. We assess joint conditions during cleaning and discuss any repairs needed. Re-pointing restores structural integrity and appearance, preventing weed growth and further deterioration, backed by two decades of consistent, practical know-how.

Client Advice
Ask how existing damage will be handled
Ask about sealing separately
If you are considering having the patio sealed after cleaning, ask whether this is included or offered as a separate service. Find out which product would be proposed, what preparation it requires and whether suitable drying conditions are necessary.
Do not assume that sealing automatically forms part of an ordinary patio cleaning quotation.
Check the patio before final sign-off
When the service is complete, inspect the patio with the provider and compare the work with the agreed quotation. Confirm whether jointing, sealing or any other agreed finishing stage remains outstanding and ask about anything you do not understand.
Keep the final invoice together with relevant product or aftercare information for future reference.
Check access to water and power
Ask whether the provider requires access to an outside water supply, electricity or other facilities while cleaning the patio. Find out what equipment will be brought to the property and what, if anything, you are expected to provide.
Clarifying these practical arrangements beforehand can help avoid unnecessary delays on the day.
Ask whether cleaning products will be used
Find out whether the patio will be cleaned using pressure washing alone or whether additional cleaning products are proposed. Ask what any products are intended to achieve and whether precautions are required around surrounding materials, plants or other garden features.
This helps you understand the complete process before agreeing to the work.
Ask how additional work will be agreed
Cleaning can sometimes reveal damaged joints, stubborn staining or other conditions that were difficult to assess beforehand. Ask how any additional treatment or repair work would be discussed and priced if it becomes advisable.
Extra work should be agreed before it proceeds so the revised scope and cost remain clear.

Our patio had gone dull and a bit grimy, especially after weeks of rain. They got it looking fresh again without making a mess of the garden.
The difference from the kitchen window is massive and it’s safer to walk on too.

No messing about, just good work. The patio had that tired look and now it’s clean and even.
It’s also much less slippery which was the main reason I booked. They were tidy and respectful throughout.

No fuss service and they turned up exactly when promised. They moved the small bits of furniture carefully and put everything back.
It looks smart again without feeling overdone.

Andrew talked me through what he was going to do before he started which put me at ease. We’ve got stone paving and I didn’t want it blasted to bits.
He used a gentler approach and it still came up really clean, especially the lichen that had been clinging on for ages. Everything was kept under control so the dirty water didn’t end up all over the path. Patio looks fresh and it’s much nicer to walk across now.

Andy was friendly from the first phone call and made fitting it in easy. On the day he explained why some areas needed a gentler wash.
The shaded corner that always stayed slimy is now clean and grippy. It’s made the garden feel looked after again.

I’d tried doing it myself and just ended up with a patchy look. This time it’s properly even and the grime has shifted from the shaded bits too.
They turned up when promised and didn’t leave grit everywhere. Solid service.

Andrew and team were really considerate around my mum’s place. They kept everything calm and tidy and explained what they were doing as they went.

Andy and team were easy to have around and worked without making a song and dance. They treated the worst lichen first then washed it properly.
Our slabs look cleaner without the sand between them disappearing.

Andy was genuinely lovely to deal with and didn’t mind me hovering about with questions. He pointed out the areas that needed a gentler wash and why the shady bits get so bad.
The finish looks really tidy, especially around the edges and the step where it always looks grubby. It’s brighter, safer and just feels nicer to be out there now. I’m really glad I booked it in.

Andy and team were really easy to deal with and arrived bang on time. They cleaned the patio properly, including the awkward edges where it always stays green.
It looks brighter and it feels much less slippery now. Everything was left tidy which I appreciated.

It’s surprising how much better the garden feels when the patio’s clean. They got rid of the algae and the surface isn’t slick anymore.
The edges were done properly and the whole finish looks even. Nice straightforward service.

Andy and team were really friendly and got straight on with it. The green film in the shaded corner has gone and the slabs look fresh again.

We’ve got family popping round a lot and I was always worried someone would slip on the damp bits. Since the clean it feels grippy again and it looks so much smarter from the kitchen window.
They were respectful with the garden and moved things carefully rather than just shoving them out the way. The finish is even across the whole patio, not patchy like when I tried myself. It’s one of those jobs you wish you’d done sooner.

Andy and team were sound and just got on with it. They cleared the slippery algae near the back door and cleaned right along the edges.
Patio looks loads better and they left everything tidy before heading off.

Identify loose paving, damaged pointing, cracks or other visible defects before patio cleaning starts. Ask whether these areas affect the proposed cleaning method and whether any repairs are included or excluded from the quotation.
Discussing the starting condition reduces the risk of confusion if cleaning makes previously obscured defects more noticeable.
