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 about stains and discolouration
Ask how the patio will be assessed
Ask whether the provider will inspect the paving, joints and surrounding areas before starting work. Loose pointing, damaged slabs, deteriorating surfaces or previous coatings can influence the cleaning method considered appropriate.
Point out any defects you already know about and ask how these areas will be treated during the service.
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.
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.
Confirm the expected timescale
Ask approximately how long the patio cleaning is expected to take and whether any additional stages will need to be completed later. Jointing or sealing treatments, where included, may depend on suitable drying and weather conditions.
Understanding the sequence helps you know when the patio is likely to be ready for normal use.
Ask about the cleaning method
Find out what equipment and cleaning method the provider proposes to use on your patio. The appropriate pressure and technique can depend on the paving material, its condition and the type of dirt or growth being treated.
Ask for an explanation of the proposed approach where you have concerns about a particular surface.

Had it done just before Christmas and it’s still looking clean now. No harsh smells and no mess left behind.

No fuss service and they turned up exactly when promised. They moved the small bits of furniture carefully and put everything back.

I’m not usually bothered about this stuff but the patio had turned into a green slip hazard. They arrived on time, worked steadily and didn’t make a big drama out of anything.
The worst of the staining has lifted and the surface feels a lot safer. What I really liked was how tidy they were, no muddy footprints through the house and no rubbish left behind. It’s made the back garden feel looked after again without any hassle for me.

We’ve got kids running in and out so the slippery bits were doing my head in. It’s grippy again and the patio actually looks like it belongs to the house.

I wanted the patio sorted before spring and they fitted me in without drama. They cleaned right up to the door step and along the edges where weeds start.
It’s a proper fresh look now and the garden feels more inviting. Really pleased with the overall service.

Andrew and team were tidy and respectful around the plants and pots. The lichen that’s been stuck for ages has lifted loads and the patio colour has come back.
It’s made the whole space feel cared for. Great job.

Good value for how much effort went into it. They didn’t just blast the middle and call it done, they sorted the edges and steps as well.
Patio looks years younger.

First time I’ve paid for patio cleaning and I’m glad I did. Booking was simple and communication was clear.
The staining has lifted loads and the shaded corner isn’t that slimy green anymore. It feels like a proper usable space again.

Fair price and the finish is bang on. They didn’t leave muck everywhere and the water run off was controlled which I appreciated with the neighbours so close.

I liked that they didn’t try to oversell anything. The booking was simple and they arrived bang on time.

Andy and team were sound from the minute they arrived. No big sales chat, just a quick look round and then they cracked on.
The slippery patch near the back door has gone and the slabs look fresh without looking blasted. They even gave the step a proper clean which I hadn’t thought about.

I was expecting it to look a bit better, not completely different. The patio has come up so much cleaner and the colour is back in the slabs.
They worked carefully and didn’t disturb the joints the way I’ve seen with some pressure washing. It’s also made a big difference for safety, the slippery film has gone and you can feel the grip under your feet. The whole thing was straightforward from booking to finish and there was no mess left for me to sort out.

I work odd hours so I needed someone reliable with timings. Communication was spot on and everything felt straightforward.
The patio has come up really well, especially the darker shaded bits that always look grubby. It’s now a space I’m actually happy to sit out in with a brew.

I’ll be honest, I booked it because I was fed up of apologising for the state of the patio when people came round. Now it looks clean and bright and you can actually see the colour in the paving again.
The work was done neatly and they kept things under control so it didn’t spray everywhere. They were polite and easy to chat to and the whole process felt simple.

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.

Point out oil, rust, organic staining or other noticeable marks when the patio is assessed. Ask what improvement the provider reasonably expects from the proposed cleaning method, as some staining or permanent changes in the paving may remain.
Clear expectations are preferable to assuming that every mark can be completely removed.
