Garden paving in a village this green rarely stays clean for long. We revive Charlwood terraces, paths, steps, drives and decks, dialling the pressure up or down so old stone and brick are refreshed rather than roughed up.
Picture the typical Charlwood back garden in February: a stone terrace under a canopy of oak branches, a brick path to the shed slick with algae, block paving out front with a ridge of moss in every joint. Lovely in summer, treacherous in winter. Our jet washing in Charlwood takes all of that grime away, leaving surfaces that are safer to walk on and look as they did when they were first laid.
Pressure washing old village paving is about judgement as much as power. Robust concrete and block drives can handle a flat rotary cleaner that works the whole surface evenly. Natural sandstone, older brick and weathered flagstones get a softer approach so their faces are not scoured or pitted. Porcelain is cleaned carefully to keep its smooth finish unmarked, while resin-bound surfaces and timber decking get a lighter touch again, sparing both binder and wood grain. We pull weeds from joints, lift moss and algae, and offer an optional biocide treatment afterwards that tackles stubborn black lichen spots and slows regrowth. Run-off is rinsed away from walls and doorways as we work, and if jointing sand washes out of your block paving, we will mention it so you can have it topped up.
Charlwood is a leafy village on the heavy clay of the Low Weald, and both of those facts matter for anything laid on the ground. Clay holds moisture, so patios and paths stay damp for long stretches between dry spells, while the oaks, hedges and copses around so many gardens block sunlight and drop leaves that rot down on the paving. The result is a green film of algae, moss in the joints and, over time, the stubborn black and grey dots of lichen.
The variety of surfaces is a feature of the parish. Period cottages in the old village core, close to the Norman church, may have old brick paths, worn stone steps and flagstones that need a gentle hand. Farmhouses and barn conversions often have large terraces in sandstone or limestone and long block-paved or concrete drives. Post-war houses and bungalows towards Hookwood and Norwood Hill typically have concrete or slab patios, while newer homes may have porcelain terraces, composite decking or resin-bound driveways.
Many properties also have stable yards, garage forecourts or concrete aprons around outbuildings that collect moss and mud. Whatever the surface, the pressure washing kit is set up to match it, and we cover Charlwood and its surrounding RH6 lanes, working around narrow access and limited parking where needed. Hidden corners behind sheds and along shaded side passages tend to be the greenest of all, so they get extra attention.
Each job follows a careful routine that protects your paving, planting and house walls.
Send pictures of the terrace, drive, paths or deck with rough sizes and your address. Knowing the material lets us bring the right equipment and quote a fixed price.
Benches and planters are shifted if you are happy for us to, fallen leaves are swept off, big weeds are tugged out, and thresholds, vents and flower beds are screened from spray.
A rotary cleaner gives an even finish on open areas, and a lance handles edges, steps and joints. Pressure is reduced for brick, soft stone, resin and timber.
Slurry is washed away from walls and drains, splashes are rinsed off, and the optional biocide is applied to tackle lichen and slow the return of moss and algae.

Cottage courtyards, farmhouse forecourts, modern porcelain terraces: if it is hard landscaping, it can almost certainly be revived. Across the parish, our pressure washing most often involves:
Unsure what your paving actually is? A close-up photo of a single slab or brick usually tells us, and then we can recommend settings that clean it thoroughly without risking the surface.
Every jet washing quote is built around your garden rather than a price list. We take account of:
Photos plus approximate dimensions are enough for a fixed figure, free and without commitment.
Yes. Older bricks can be soft, so the pressure comes down, the lance keeps moving and a wider fan of spray is used. That shifts moss and algae without eroding the brick face or blasting out the mortar. The bricks are inspected first, and the approach is adjusted to their condition.
In Charlwood, patios often sit in shade from oaks and hedges, and the clay ground below keeps them damp. Algae forms a slick green film in those conditions, which becomes very slippery in wet weather. A thorough clean removes it, and a biocide treatment helps slow it coming back.
The dots are lichen, rooted firmly into the stone’s surface. Washing lifts the dirt around them, while biocide sprayed afterwards kills the lichen itself, so the marks lighten steadily over the next few weeks. Soft sandstone is always cleaned on gentle settings to keep its face intact.
Yes. Concrete yards, garage forecourts and the hardstanding around barns and stables tend to gather moss, mud and algae, particularly in shady corners. They are cleaned with the same attention as a patio or drive, and adding them to the house visit keeps everything tidy at once.
Some loose jointing sand is usually removed during cleaning, especially where weeds and moss have taken hold. If enough comes out to affect the paving, we flag it so the joints can be re-sanded, which keeps the blocks stable and discourages weeds.
No. With the gate unbolted, plus a working outdoor tap and power point, your presence is not required on the day. Plenty of Charlwood clients are at work during the visit and simply get a text at the end, with photos if they ask.
