Driveway cleaning is one of those tasks that feels like it will take a lot of time and effort to do - and with the wrong equipment, that's true. Of course, you could buy professional pressure wash equipment yourself, but this can often come at a considerable cost and you won't be carrying out deep cleaning on your driveway often enough for it to be worth it.
So, what can you do?
Well, thankfully, that's where we here at Right Wash come in. We offer professional pressure washing services for driveway cleaning and patio cleaning to help remove dirt, oil stains, and clean up your outdoor surfaces with ease.
Not convinced we're right for you? Don't worry, below we'll talk about our driveway cleaning services in greater depth, talk you through why our clients work with us, and discuss why we're such a great driveway cleaning company (in our humble opinion)...
If you're considering cleaning your driveway, or other outdoor surfaces, then making use of our driveway cleaning services makes sense. We take care of the whole process for you - from an honest, fair quote for the work up front so there are no surprise hidden costs throughout, right the way through to the big clean itself.
To help understand what we'll do on the day, here's how we take care of the pressure washing for driveways.
Driveway cleaning is much the same as patio cleaning, but the areas we tackle are slightly different, since driveways usually have additional challenges like oil stains to tackle.
So we don't cover old ground, here's a quick rundown of how pressure washing your driveway works during our driveway cleaning service:
Sealing services are offered by pressure washing companies like ours to help protect your driveway for the long term. The appropriate sealant for the driveway can help in a number of different ways:
and much more!
Our jet wash can completely transform your driveway, but an appropriate sealant will mean you won't require deep cleaning for a while after we complete our work, keeping the cost down and helping prolong the life of your driveway!
Using a suitable sealant is an added extra to our driveway cleaning services, but we highly recommend it to extend the life of your driveway.
Before we seal your driveway with the best sealant, it may need re sanding if it is block paving. Here we simply use kiln-dried sand to help protect the block paving and get the sand looking like new. Once re sanded, the block paving will not only look better, but perform better for longer too.
Finish off re sanding with a resealing service from us, and it will leave your driveway looking great for much longer, helping its restoration last.
Now you know what our driveway cleaning looks like, let's take a closer look at the specific tasks we can handle.
As we mentioned above, block paving needs to be treated differently. The kiln-dried sand between each block needs to be redone every so often. When you re sand the blocks in block paving, you enhance the entire look of the driveway.
Driveway cleaning requires oil stains removal, and although it can be a difficult job to tackle yourself, we've been cleaning driveways for years, so we know how to get oil from the surface easily with our pressure washing techniques and products.
More often seen on driveways, tyre marks can ruin the look of the surface, so to restore your driveway to its former glory, we'll need to A) get rid of the old tyre marks, and B) prevent new ones from occurring easily with a sealant that can maintain your driveway.
Outdoor surfaces will get wet often, and that can cause the arrival of unwanted green algae, mould, plants, and weeds. Part of our cleaning of driveways involves removing all of this to keep your surfaces looking professional.
To treat mould, you have to have a reliable solution that will tackle it at the source, and prevent it from coming back. We have exactly the right products and system in place to remove mould and keep it away from your patios, decking, driveways, and paths!
Algae and mould might be a little niche for you, but everybody suffers from general messes on their driveway from tyres and dust and mud. Well, our jet washing tackles all of these and leaves your surfaces like new!
Our customers often opt for cleaning over replacement because it's much cheaper to restore even an old, ugly driveway than it is to replace them. Concrete, tarmac, resin and block paving can all be brought up to scratch with a simple driveway clean.
Why spend more on a new driveway, when we can clean up the surface for a fraction of the price, and all with a free quote to get the ball rolling, too?

A regular power wash will help keep moss and algae at bay which will keep your driveway looking fresh and decrease the risk of cracks and gaps forming in which ice can form and cause an unstable driveway. Be careful if it's a block paved driveway however as if the pressure is too high you will damage/remove the pointing.
6-12 months should be a timeframe you stick to. This helps prevent plant and moss growth between the cracks which can result in excess water getting into crevices which on a cold night can freeze forcing open the gaps further.
We always try to use a soft washing method, steam cleaning or low pressure without chemicals but a common chemical used to clean driveways is sodium hypochlorite at 15% as it helps dissolve lichen, algae and moss.
It is an expensive low pressure cleaning system that uses a mixture of chemicals like sodium hypochlorite, biocides, surfactants and water to safely remove algae, stains and grime from driveways.
