Pressure Washing - Hard Surfaces
 

Remember when your block paving driveway was newly laid. How it shone !

You carefully chose the pattern you wanted. Selected the colour scheme; silver grey, mistral granite, curragh gold. It wasn't cheap, but in the end it was worth it.

When it was all done it looked great. Admiring glances from passers-by, envious comments from the neighbours, and the quiet satisfaction each time you returned home that you had improved both the looks and value of your property.

Now a few years down the line it doesn't look like that anymore. The blocks are stained, grubby and grey. The original kiln dried sand has disappeared from the gaps and been replaced by soil. Now moss and weeds have taken over the gaps. Quite frankly it makes the front of your house look tired and shabby.

 

Not to worry ! For a fraction of the cost of the initial outlay you can restore your driveway or patio to that new pristine look again.

With our high-powered petrol engined pressure washer we can blast away all the years of dirt and grime. As you can see from the accompanying video, this is a serious piece of kit; much more powerful and effective than the do-it-yourself and cheap electric versions that are so popular with homeowners.

Within a few hours we can restore the colours and texture of the original surface. Once again you can enjoy the admiring glances and comments of friends, neighbours and passers-by. Once again you can come home to a pristine driveway.

We have a 3-step process that guarantees your total satisfaction when you engage our services.

Step 1. Site Assessment

When we arrive to complete an initial site assessment we will of course measure up and calculate an all in price for the work. But we do much more than that.

At this stage it is very important to look for any potential problems or snags.

Obviously we need a supply of water so a working outside tap is essential before any work can proceed.

We will inspect the surfaces, looking in particular for any points of weakness that may be damaged by high pressure washing. Cracked and old mortar between joints will come apart, as will some cheaper or old and weakened sandstone type flags.

Any findings will be clearly communicated with the client to make sure that expectations are met. What can and cannot be achieved on the day. In some cases we may even advise against pressure washing a surface !

Before cleaning
 
Step 2. The Cleaning Process

We will clean the area in a systematic and methodical manner. All areas will be cleaned correctly.

To clean your driveway, patio or paths properly requires a patient and thorough operator.

Patience and concentration is required to make sure that all areas, corners and edges are cleaned thoroughly. No missed bits !

Our primary aim is that the client should experience the most thorough clean ever. We want happy clients and no call backs. It is to our benefit to make sure that the job has been completed to the client's total satisfaction.

After cleaning
 
Step 3. Finishing Touches

After an area has been pressure washed we give it a low pressure rinse with just the hose or the machine on low power. We will wash down adjacent fences, walls and brickwork to make sure that no splashed debris is left on vertical surfaces.

We won't leave your drains blocked or piles of silt debris on the sides of the driveway or the public pavement.

After a couple of days to allow the hard surface to dry out thoroughly we shall return to apply and brush in clean fresh dried kiln sand into all the cleaned out gaps in the blocks or flagstones. And to make sure that you are totally satisfied with the work !

Only then will you be invoiced and you have a further 30 day money back guarantee and 30 days credit before any monies are due.
