Has the patio gone from honey-coloured to murky green? Is the drive speckled with black dots? Effingham driveways, terraces, paths and decks are pressure washed with settings matched to each surface, then protected if you wish.
Outdoor paving takes a battering. Leaves stain it, algae turns it slippery, weeds root in the joints and lichen leaves stubborn black specks that no brush will shift. Our jet washing in Effingham takes on drives of resin, tarmac, concrete or block paving; terraces of porcelain, slate, limestone, sandstone or pre-cast slabs; plus paths, front steps, decking and garden walls, bringing back the colour and texture that has been hidden under years of growth.
The secret is matching the equipment to the material. Pressure washing at full power would scar soft natural stone or loosen resin aggregate, so each surface gets its own pressure setting and nozzle. Broad, level areas get the rotary surface cleaner, a spinning head under a hood that gives a uniform finish and keeps spray contained close to the ground. Edges, steps and corners are finished with a hand lance. We rinse the loosened dirt towards drains and clear of lawns and flower beds throughout. Once the surface is dry, a biocide treatment can be applied for anyone keen to keep green growth and black spot from making a speedy comeback. Block paving can also be re-sanded afterwards to refill the joints and discourage weeds.
Gardens in Effingham are often generous and well planted, with mature trees and hedges that make them private and peaceful. They also drop leaves, seeds and sap onto patios and drives, and keep large parts of them in shade. On the heavier ground towards Effingham Common, surfaces stay damp for long stretches in winter, and green algae can make a patio genuinely hazardous underfoot. Nearer the downs, chalky soil and yew or beech shade create their own conditions for moss and lichen on stone.
The paving itself is as varied as the village. Older homes in the historic heart of the village may have old brick paths, flagstones or soft local stone that need a light touch. Many interwar and post-war homes have concrete drives and slab patios that have weathered to a dull grey, while newer properties and extensions often have block paving, porcelain terraces or resin-bound drives that look spectacular when clean but show every mark when dirty. Large detached homes may have long drives and broad terraces that take a full day to bring back.
Whatever the surface, we start with a test patch and work up to the right setting. Our pressure washing covers Effingham and the wider KT24 district, from homes near the station and the common to houses along the A246 and up towards the golf course.
Each surface is assessed and tested first, so the clean is thorough without damaging what lies underneath.
We identify each surface, check for loose or damaged paving, then test a small, discreet area to find the right pressure and nozzle before cleaning the rest.
Garden furniture and planters are carried aside, the bigger weeds are tugged from the joints, and anything nearby that could catch overspray, from glazing to parked cars and shrubs, is shielded.
Open expanses are covered by the hooded rotary head for a consistent result, while the hand lance deals with edges, risers and tight corners. The dirty run-off is guided away from planting.
Once everything has dried, an optional biocide spray helps delay regrowth, and block paving can be brushed with fresh kiln-dried sand to firm up the joints.

Almost any hard landscaping around an Effingham home can be revived with the right setting and a little patience. The work we are asked for most often includes:
Occasionally a surface is too worn or fragile for pressure. When that happens we will be straight with you and suggest a gentler option, rather than risk damaging it.
There is no rate card; each driveway or patio gets a fixed figure of its own, based on:
Photograph each area you want doing, message them across however suits you, and a fixed figure generally arrives within the day.
It is softer than most paving, but it can be cleaned safely with care. We drop the pressure, widen the spray and try a small hidden patch first. Handled like that, the moss and dirt come off yet the stone surface and its pointing survive unharmed, so the patio looks refreshed rather than worn.
It can. Resin-bound surfaces need a careful hand so the bonded stones are not disturbed, which means low pressure and a nozzle that never lingers in one spot. Done this way, algae and dirt come away cleanly and the surface keeps its even, textured finish.
Shady, damp terraces near the common are always going to attract algae. A deep clean followed by the biocide makes a real difference to how quickly it returns, and a lighter refresh every year or so keeps the surface safe to walk on through the wetter months.
Some of it will, because the water that flushes out moss and weeds also carries away loose sand from the gaps. That is why we offer re-sanding afterwards: fresh kiln-dried sand is brushed in to refill the joints, steady the blocks and make life harder for weeds trying to re-establish.
Mainly an outdoor tap we can connect to, and on some jobs an exterior socket as well. If either could be awkward at your property, mention it in your first message so a workable plan can be agreed before we turn up.
Straight away in most cases, although the surface may stay damp for a few hours. If the biocide has been applied, we will tell you how long to keep children and pets off it while it soaks in and dries properly.
