Remember how brilliant your block paving driveway looked when it was first laid?

` You carefully chose the pattern and colour scheme - silver grey, mistral granite, or perhaps curragh gold. It was a significant investment, but ultimately, worth it.

That finished driveway was stunning, drawing admiring glances from passers-by and envious comments from neighbours. Every time you came home you must have felt a quiet satisfaction of knowing you'd enhanced the appearance of your home and increased the value of your property.

However, a few years on and that pristine look has vanished. Instead the blocks are now soiled and stained, dull and grey.

The original kiln-dried sand has vanished from the gaps and been replaced by soil, moss and weeds. Frankly, your driveway now makes the front of your house look tired and rather 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.

As autumn brings the ideal conditions of damp and shade, moss and algae quickly take hold on hard surfaces.

They spread quietly across block paving and slabs, forming an unsightly green film that becomes a dangerous slip hazard once the inevitable rain and frost arrive.

Now is the ideal time to clean and treat these surfaces before conditions worsen. A proper deep wash clears away the buildup, restores grip underfoot, and slows down the slimy regrowth that makes winter driveways treacherous. The final step in our process, a free biocide treatment (see below) ensures that these surfaces will remain clean and safe throughout the remainder of the winter.

It's not just about keeping things tidy - it's about keeping everyone on their feet. Each winter, unlucky homeowners take an unnecessary tumble on what's basically a film of slime.

A quick deep clean now clears away that build up before winter sets in - restoring grip underfoot, making your driveway safer for you, your family and anyone delivering to your door. It's not just about appearances; it's about avoiding the kind of accident that ruins a perfectly good Sunday.

How much would it cost to replace or repair your lovely driveway? Well, here's a thought. Moss in winter damages hard surfaces.

Moss is a small, spongy plant that thrives in damp, shaded environments. It doesn't have roots like normal plants; instead, it clings to surfaces, absorbing water and nutrients directly from rain and moisture. On driveways, patios, and block paving, this seems harmless at first - just a soft green carpet.

The problem comes when cold weather arrives. Moss is surprisingly thirsty for its size. On average, moss can absorb up to 20 to 30 times its own dry weight in water. This water trapped in moss and algae freezes overnight. As it expands, it seeps into tiny cracks and pores in stone, concrete, or block paving. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles gradually widen these cracks, causing surface erosion, uneven pavers, and structural damage over time.

Left untreated, moss not only makes your driveway slippery but accelerates deterioration, meaning more expensive repairs in the long run. A winter clean removes the moss before it gets a chance to trap water and damage the surface during frost, keeping your hard surfaces safe, solid, and looking their best.

Winter gardens are often drab. Under grey skies and damp weather, the rain-soaked borders leave little to brighten the day. Plants are dormant, flowers are all gone, and it can feel like there's nothing to see or do in the garden.

But your hard surfaces don't have to share the same fate. In fact, now is the perfect time to think about cleaning your driveway, patio, or block paving. To restore their original colours, lifting the moss, algae, and grime that have dulled the stonework. A freshly cleaned surface catches the eye, giving your home a crisp, cared-for look, even in the depths of winter.

Coming home to a bright, clean driveway is an instant mood boost - a small, simple restoration project that makes a big visual impact when the rest of the garden is asleep. It's practical, it's rewarding, and it turns your driveway from drab to delightful.

For some reason everyone seems to wait until spring or summer to book pressure washing. Maybe it's the sunshine, maybe it's just habit - but there's really no valid reason for it. Provided temperatures stay above freezing driveways and patios can be cleaned perfectly well throughout the winter months. And let's be honest, our winters are more mild than wild these days.

So instead of fighting market sentiment, we've decided to reward anyone smart enough to book now. Throughout the winter period, we're reducing our standard pressure washing rate from £3.50 per square metre to £3.00. Same professional clean, same care and attention - just a bit less strain on your wallet.

Book now, avoid the herd, and take advantage of the quiet season. Roll into spring with your driveway already looking at its best.

Algo Clear Pro professional grade moss and algae treatment is the current market leader. We apply the correctly diluted solution of this high strength biocide to your driveway, patio or block paving as the final step in our cleaning process.

Algo Clear penetrates hard surfaces and kills the moss, the algae and that slippery green bio-film that makes your patio a treacherous slip hazard during wet weather. It restores and maintains clean, safe and attractive finishes.

Algo Clear Pro contains no bleaches, no ammonia, nor any harsh acids, and is safe for most hard surfaces. Unlike other brands of biocide, dilution of the product with hard water, ( common in Leicestershire), does not degrade its performance.

After your deep clean we apply this professional-grade treatment to lock out the moss and algae which means your driveway stays clean and safe throughout the winter ready for the arrival of spring.

This is why the autumn and winter period, when moss and algae thrive in damp and shady conditions, is the ideal time to pressure wash those hard surfaces.

AlgoClear Pro is an expensive premium product, and for good reason. It's the most effective treatment of its kind, trusted by professionals to keep surfaces clean and protected for years.

But this winter, we're including it at no extra cost with every pressure wash. Many homeowners think, " I'll wait until spring to have it done, " but that's a mistake.

The winter months are exactly when moss and algae become both a treacherous slip hazard and combined with freezing conditions permanently damage surfaces.

Now you don't have to worry. Our FREE BIOCIDE TREATMENT ensures you will still have clean, safe surfaces when the Spring arrives. In fact, under ideal conditions Algo Clear delays re-colonisation by moss and algae for at least 2 years and often 5 years or more.

An initial site survey is the essential first step in the process.

Of course, we will measure up and calculate the price for the work and check that that outside tap has sufficient pressure to adequately supply our machine. But we do much more than that.

It is very important to look for any potential problems or snags. We inspect the surfaces for any weak points, such as cracked or deteriorating mortar in the gaps. Some sandstones are prone to delamination. Any potential risks from high-pressure washing will be identified and clearly communicated to you.

Our boast is that your driveway will look like new - or your money back. And we like to honour that pledge. However, reality dictates that there are some circumstance in which that outcome cannot be guaranteed. If we don't feel that we can hit that goal, we will tell you.

We need to make sure that your expectations are met. What can and cannot be achieved on the day. In some cases we may even advise against pressure washing a surface !

On completion of the survey we can give you a ball park figure for the cost of the clean. This will be followed up within 24 - 48 hours with the accurate written estimate, the works agreed to be completed and your guarantees. This will be sent to you by email. Assuming you are happy with this the work can be booked in. Weekends are available at no extra cost if required.

Hard surface areas often suffer from weed infestation, particularly in the gaps between block or concrete pavers. Although strimming and pressure washing removes these weeds, they may leave root material behind.

These roots often regenerate over time and the weeds reappear after a few weeks. To avoid this problem we apply glyphosate weed killer to the area if there is weed infestation present.

Glyphosate based products kill to the root. The weed killer is absorbed through the leaf and then transported to the root system. Once this has occurred the death of the plant is inevitable. This guarantees that any pieces of root that may remain after cleaning will not regrow in the future

Since it takes at least 24 hours from application until the glyphosate is absorbed by the plant, it is our practice to apply the product during the site survey. This service is entirely FREE OF CHARGE, and does not obligate you to accept our estimate or proceed with the work. It simply makes sense to provide this service at this point in time.

Any tall weeds will be strimmed down. The area will be cleared of leaf and other debris with a cordless vacuum blower.

The covers on gully drains on driveways and patios will be removed, leaf debris blown out and any silt removed.

Pots and garden furniture that can be moved away from the cleaning area will first be photographed in their original positions for later replacement.

We clean the area systematically and methodically, paying careful attention to edges, corners, and stubborn patches. Patience and concentration ensure no missed spots.

On all but the smallest jobs the usual practice is to tackle the larger areas with the rotary surface cleaner. This efficient time saving device cleans away the vast majority of the soiling from an area.

An added bonus is that the rotary cleaner is less aggressive than the jet wand so reducing the amount of kiln sand displaced from between the block pavers, saving on kiln sand replacement costs..

Next phase uses the jet lance which gets all the areas that the rotary surface cleaner couldn't reach. This includes edges, corners, stubborn areas, as well as the tops of low garden walls and fences if these have been included in the work schedule.

After the initial pressure wash is completed there may still be tough lichen, algae, or moss areas left. Our secret weapon - a sodium hypochlorite solution is applied, and allowed to dwell for at least 15 minutes. This product is a bleach and kills and breaks down algae and moss and helps remove any heavier soiling.

Once the hypochlorite has broken down the organic matter and staining it is simply a matter of pressure washing or rinsing the product away.

Sodium hypochlorite also brightens the stonework so ensuring a superior finish. A second application will be included, if required, at no extra cost.

During the cleaning process it is inevitable that the pressure washing will cause dirt and grit to splash up and over adjacent surfaces, such as walls, windows, doors and fences.

Whilst cleaning is in progress it is our habit to periodically wash down any such surfaces in the area of work as we progress. This is for 2 primary reasons.

Firstly, allowing grit and dirt to dry out on surfaces, particularly on hot days, only makes removal more difficult as they bind more strongly to the surface.

Secondly, peace of mind. It could be that the window cleaner only just came around yesterday and now those lovely clean windows are covered in muck. By washing them down occasionally the client is assured we are not going to leave them in that state!

And once all the high pressure work is finished we do a final rinse down. All surfaces, including gully drains, walls, fences, doors, and windows, are rinsed to remove splash marks.

To finish off we use our Gardiner Back Pack and water fed pole system to leave all your ground floor doors and windows in a pristine condition. Basically you get a free window clean thrown in!

AlgoClear Pro prevents the regrowth of moss, lichen and algae.

It is applied to the treated surface and agitated with a brush to help penetration and coverage. It inhibits the regrowth of organic matter for up to five years or more under ideal conditions.

It can be used on many surfaces including patios, driveways, walls and fences.

The product is not toxic but it is advised that small children and pets should stay clear of the treated until the product has dried.

If you have block paving and have opted for us to replace the old displaced kiln sand with fresh sand then this is the final step.

Once the surface is dry, we return to brush in fresh kiln-dried sand into all cleaned gaps in the block paving. 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.

Only once you are completely satisfied do we invoice. We offer 30-day credit and a 30-day money-back guarantee to ensure your confidence in the work we've completed.

This is how the 30 Day Money Back Guarantee Works - If there is any aspect of the service that you are not happy with you have a full 30 days to notify us. We will not ignore your calls or emails. We aim to provide the highest level of service for the best clients.

Whatever the problem is we shall try to rectify it, free of charge. If you are still not satisfied we shall agree a full or partial refund with you. Satisfied clients are of utmost important to us.

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.
