Pressure washing can be suitable for many exterior hard surfaces, but the correct method depends on the material and its condition. The technician will assess the area before starting.
- Patios and paving: Lift weather-related grime, moss and algae from compatible slabs, blocks and joints.
- Driveways: Clean suitable concrete, block paving, tarmac, resin-bound and stone surfaces after assessment.
- Paths and steps: Target built-up outdoor dirt on accessible hard-surface walkways and entrances.
- Walls and other hard surfaces: Assess the material, finish and surrounding area before choosing the safest workable pressure.
Pressure washing helps remove common outdoor build-up, but it cannot guarantee the removal of every stain or restore damaged materials.
Oil, rust, paint, deep discolouration and fragile finishes may need a different treatment or may remain visible.
Access required: The technician needs running water, electricity and suitable drainage. An outside tap is preferred, although an accessible indoor supply may be suitable. The service cannot proceed where wastewater has nowhere appropriate to drain.
